Cloudy fina?

[Khadar]

I've just made my 2nd bottle of fina. I did use "A" kit. The first one worked out get, but this one is kind of cloudy. Is this still okay or is there something I can do so it becomes clearer? I filtered and did everthing I did before, which I'm sure is right.

Info would be great.
Thanks.

It's moisture that's in the vial. It doesn't affect anything, just appearances. If it really bothers you, put the vial in the oven at 200-250 F for 20-30 minutes. Also, put in a needle at the top, otherwise, the moisture will just recondense into the solution.

Hope that helps.

no prob

That is purely cosmetic, bake it a couple times to ensure sterility.
My last batch was cloudy also, but it was as smooth as silk, no probs.plus the leftover (about 20ml) is clear gold after sitting for a couple months. he appearantly used a different brand of one of the ingredients and it binds to h20 which is where the cloudiness comes from. you can also clear it up a little if you leave a pin in vial while you bake it, or put one in to remove pressure between baking. There was a HUGE discussion about this over at MR-H board some time ago and "A" addressed it completely.

This shit is a science.
