<p></p>
<p>- Rinsed out with distilled water</p>
<p>- Refilled until about an 2 inches of space was left at top</p>
<p>- Used 4 table spoons of dissolved Epsom salt in a new solution.</p>
<p>- Poured that into lamp with rest of distilled water</p>
<p>- Used maybe 1/2 teaspoon of bubble solution for the surficant</p>
<p>This resulted in what you see above. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Then I emptied out a bit of the liquid and replaced about an inch with pure distilled water and about the same result.</p>

<p>or some additions?</p>

<p>thx!</p> Question about changing the lamp's water.Salt/wax/soap solutiontag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2012-01-29:1566398:Topic:3696272012-01-29T05:20:12.218ZBowlerhathttps://oozinggoo.ning.com/profile/7053
<p>OK.So what I've got here is a cloudy lava lampo and I'm going to change it..</p>
<p>I wonder is it safe to clean the bottle with the cooled wax in it?</p>
<p>Or should I pour out the wax first?</p>
<p>and do you need to add small amount of salt to the water,</p>
<p>Or just add salt into some amount of water first,then add it to the globe?</p>
<p>Can I use another kind of salt other than canning/ pickling salt? How much do you use to change the lamp?</p>

I have a cloudy US 32 oz globe from 2003. I have tried 2 hour cycles and 6 hour cycles, no quick significant change. I started running the globe all day from 8am to 11 pm. It is looking much better in just three days. It doesn't overheat and if it looks like it does i turn it off for a while and then turn it back on. Why is this treatment working and has anyone else done this?
