had this one in the file, never tried it.... ???

borax 46.00
strontium carb 1.96
boric acid 3.32
epk 1.71
flint 47.01

riox 17.82

also, ithink i saw someone do something simple like 50/50
rutile/gerstley borate and get some wacky crystalline thing...

p.s. this is rated for 05-07.. try adding rutile or titanium

bet it's runny as hell, good luck
