Sorry if I mislead you, I didn’t mean to. I couldn’t think of anything to describe the consistancy and so I jumped on milk. Selector is closer to what I was after when he suggested tomato soup.
As far as drying goes, TEFFY has the key.
Just don’t try a hair dryer even on a low setting. It dries unevenly and to quickly and the whole thing cracks. Don’t ask me how I know this because I will have to plea the 5th!
