Summer sun is here

I started my sun bleaching as of last week now is the time to put the globes you want
in the sun for a Clear liquid with the lava. It has been a week for me so far and about 2 more to go for quite a few of 52z globes plus a few 32z ones . It will not bleach out the
wax just remember to put a cloth down on the ground . Two years ago i put five 32z lava
and about three 52z lava on the cement ground out in the yard at about 3 in the afternoon
my wife says your lavas are all flowing and they were . The cement gets hot and heats
the coil this was so cool looking at them flowing away. So use a cloth or rubber pads. I
also cover the caps with bottle caps to keep them from rusting when it rains you see i
leave them out for 3 week straight and never move them .

I only use pink liquid/white lava to get a white on white and clear liquid like this one on a snake base. I have done a few of them in 32z and also 52z.

That'd be cool to see them flowing like that with no light source.

Great idea btw, I never knew that would work so well

The free power of the sun to do cool work for use . I just put out a few Lava Wizards to make them
a clear Glitter . With summer almost here running glitters are the way to go and keeps the air not so
much on and a clear glitter will also light up a room . I use them as nite lights makes the house look so
cool from one room to another colored room.

We had a bit of a heat wave here. I decided to put a purple/yellow grande outside to lighten it a bit, it was terribly dark. I was expecting it to take a week or two, but on the third day I looked at it before work and it was about perfect. However, I waited to bring it in till I got home. When I got home it was completely clear, no purple left at all, so be careful with the cheap dye in the grandes, it turns fast!

Grandes use to take up to 3 weeks but the new ones seem to take less. Yes they have really
made them cheaper. But you now have a nice clear/yellow grande now that is cool.

Probable stupid question comma but better to ask and know than not ask and have a shadow of doubt :

Will the sun help clear a cloudy lamp? Just got one of the o so cloudy purple/yellow grandes.

I have had a blue/white 52oz sitting outside for over a month now. No change in color. Maybe now it will? I don't know.

Kris,

Summer hasn't started yet in VA. We are now just wrapping up Spring. Sun wasn't strong enough.

Bohdan lives in the mid Atlantic states like we do and is just now putting his lamps out.
I put out a china blue/yellow this morning after reading Bohdan's post. (My experiment globe)
