And here I've been wrapping the stuff in plastic wrap to keep it from drying out. With two kids keeping me busy I don't know how long it'll be before I can get back to some of my projects sometimes. LOL But it would be nice to not have the waste (or the hassle of washing and re-using because I feel guilty about using it at all).

In a regular mid-Atlantic summer it's pretty humid; how long would the urea keep me from having to use plastic wrap instead? Like how many hours' batching time in a humid environment? And in Winter a pretty dry one?

I was just reviewing the True Tie Dye video and Tom said that the urea allows more dye to be absorbed into the premix solution. I use a blender, so now I'm curious.
