ok the mud i was refering to is not the mud in you backyard it is "DRILLING MUD" which is used in the oil drilling industry to carry drill cuttings to the surface and to maintain an open hole.... the usual ingredents in a gel kem system are bentonite clay caustic or soda ash oh why am i bothering im the only dumb rig hand on here we also use it in our boilers to raise or maintain a ph of 10-10.5 im no derick hand just a motor hand that has to mix the stuff for my lazy derick hand!!!!!!!!:b iggrin:

oh but thanks for the science class i never was that good at chemistry in school so it brought back alot of memories like how many "f" grades i got........... lol
