I was just totally PO'd about this very issue tonight and came on here looking for an answer!!! I'm so frustrated. I'm trying to do an "underwater" scene. So if I can't get it crystal clear, it's OK, but I already decided to chop up the project I'd been working on for 7 hours because it just wasn't right. Too murky, even for water.

I think I may have made this mistake, and hopefully someone can confirm or debunk for me: I used a stick blender to mix the blue tint into the BB clear M&P base.

^^^ Is the stick blender the reason I ended up with millions of tiny bubbles?

If so, can I remelt the batch to get rid of the bubbles?

I really wish I could get a clearer look. I'm afraid the only solution is to order the Ultra Clear from the other big supplier.

Do not use a stick blender with your MP base! It adds lots of little bubbles, which will make the base even more cloudy.

Thank you for that confirmation soap buddy. I thought that may have been the case.

What I will do is remelt it, and just stir extremely slowly. Hopefully that will fix what I did.
