I was testing a kid in a bubble from the bottom up where you have them stand in a pan in a kiddie pool. I have used 12 to 1 mixes with just baking poweder but wanted a more durable mix or bubble in bubble life so I tried it with the guar mix done by the book and it closed up to fast. That is to say, by the time I lift the giant hoop, the bottom of the bubble touching the water is shrinking so fast it hits the pan the kid is in. I have done this with success using BLM and a 13 water to 1 Dawn detregent mix and a hot water 20 to 1 Joy mix with baking powder.
