Parents across the country are reporting a shortage of glue in stores and many are naming the simple, do-it-yourself slime as the culprit. The main ingredient in slime â an undeniably fun, droopy, pliable substance made in a bowl â is white glue such as the kind made by Elmer's. Recipes found on Pinterest show the recipe for a good slime is glue, water and the multipurpose cleaner Borax. News outlets such as CNBC and Woman's Day are blaming the craze on Pinterest and other social media, which are spreading recipes with different colors and purposes.
I found that clear glue makes a thicker slime with this borax slime recipe than white glue. You can test out both and see which one you like better. I found that a scant 1/2 cup of the clear glue will lessen the thickness. Comparing the viscosity of different slime recipes is also a neat science experiment.
