That's normal and will disappear soon. What ratio did you use? |

I've never seen that, but maybe if you were stirring it quite a bit it will froth up. It should pour like warm honey when you heat the hide glue. If so, then you are good to go. Tracy |

Thanks JJ I mixed it on a one to one intially, and then thinned it until it was able to flow without being runny. |
