2nd Verse Lyrics

Spied a little thing and I followed her all night
In a funky fine Levis and her sweater's kind of tight
She had a west coast strut that was as sweet as molasses
But what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglasses

So far I've checked this stuff out, and I'm not all that impressed. I know the rust wasn't that bad, I mixed it a little stronger so I thought. Like 8 parts water to 1 part MOasses, and it's doing a little but nothing like f1shmans results. Maybe it's granny's molasses. :shrug: Been over 24 hours now.

You need feed store molasses if you want it to work. It is a bit more acidic.

Ahhh, I guess I didn't read that part. I did see where 1 member said he's stop at the feed store. Makes sense. My water looks very dark too, F1ishmans didn't look all that dark. So that makes sense. Thanks for the heads up. I just checked it again, it's been over 36 hours now and hasn't done much at all. So it sure makes a difference. Guess I Daved this experiment all up and didn't follow direction. My bad !!! :suicide:

Absolutley !!! :bowroflwerd6: I don't give up on **** til I get it right. I'm just surprised it's gonna take me a 2nd try. :roflbow::roflbow::roflbow:

I wonder if Tractor Supply is considered a feed store and if they'd have it. Otherwise I'd probably have to take a ride out the country somewhere.

Yeah the Tractor Supply is about 2 1/2 miles from my house. And I did think about that Lumber 2 place about 5 miles away. They have a hell of an Equine supply there, so I figured they might be more likely to have it if Tractor Supply doesn't.

He was probably a bot, and the operator cant even read English. I looked back through the thread and tried to relate his post to ANY content in the thread and nothing matched. It was just a generic response, like computer-generated, with filler content based on a few key words. Good job!

Sure, lets see how it turns out. Just get Feed Grade Molasses. I guess that makes a difference. I started the process again a couple hours ago. The first time really didn't do a thing at all. But it just doesn't seem to be much different to me with the Feed grade. We'll see. Maybe it's that these gears don't have enough rust to start the process, or maybe it's that making it stronger is not a good idea. I've mixed it this time about 7:1, last time was like 5:1. Maybe it does have to be at 10:1 to work. :shrug: Experimenting for me, cuz I'm using the gear regardelss. They aren't pitted, so I'm sure they haven't lost any strength.
