Title: A question on tanning
Post by: KShip85 on November 29, 2009, 10:32:35 pm

I am in the middle of my first attempt at tanning and was wondering if the aluminum sulphate sold at gardening supply stores to change soil  ph was the proper kind or if I need to find another form.  I've heard people using the powdered form and this appears to be more of a crystle  form.  Any help would be much appreciated as if it is not the right kind I will need to find something else soon.  Thanks!
