To make your own solution, especially for
giant bubbles:
1 part Dawn (available from us), 10 - 12 parts warm water, and
a 1/4 part glycerine (available from Chemists). The Glycerine
helps the bubbles to last longer.
It is best to use soft water, and even better to leave the solution
to mix overnight.
Remember, you don’t want foam – it is the enemy
of bubbles and will make your solution weaker. So when you mix
it, don’t stir too hard. If you do get lots of foam, simply
scoop it out.
Also note, that wind and humidity can affect your solution
enormously. For best results, early in the morning or evening
are best, and after rain is superb.
