Hi Jerry,

    It was something I had sitting around for quite a while.  Seawet, spreader sticker, made with cocoanut oil I think.  But it had an emulsifier which is some kind of detergent.  I've heard that Palmolive liquid without scent is harmless to foliage.  Anyone else know?  I think you could use almost any oil with the detergent but I've heard that some detergents harm foliage.   Hector

Hello Hector,

Glad to see you on the net. We need experience as you have.

My question, What oil do you use for a spreader? I have trouble with oils not mixing with the spray mixture and don't believe I'm getting proper sticking. It just rolls around on top of the spray water.

Jerry
