for those of you who have used the dye, what is the texture of the finished product? it is still soft like oem, or does it harden up when it dries out?

ok so now i havent done it yet but do u mix the salt into the almost boiling water?
or dump it in after the water is in the trash can (all of the 2 bottles..?)
how have most of your done it? and just to make sure you pour the dye in once the trash can is filled with the water.
