Differences between Natrosol™, MS»Gunge™ and Methylcellulose

Natrosol, MS»Gunge and Methylcellulose are all very similar in texture and visuals. They are all regularly used by professional productions such as tv, film and theatre. It seems, everyone has their individual favourite!

The most obvious difference is mixing. The Methylcellulose requires an electric hand mixer, while Natrosol and MS»Gunge do not require any specialist equipment.

Product Options

Consistency:

The Standard option is thin & runny. When poured from a height the gunge will create an umbrella effect on the head or object in which it is poured. This will also create a splash effect and cause a lot of mess!

The Thick option is gloopy & dense. When poured from a height the gunge won't splash so much and should be contained. It will stick to your head, body or props while falling.

The Xtra Thick option is super sticky and heavy. When poured it will congregate and won't splash or cause too much mess. It will very slowly ooze as it sticks to your face, body or props.

Colouring:

We have over 40 colour options to choose from!

The 'standard' and 'fluorescent' colouring options produce a thicker, bolder, more solid colour. While the 'Glass Effect' produces a shiny, translucent glass-like appearance.

We also have liquid colour options (VEC) available here.

Mixing & Disposal

Natrosol is easily mixed by hand in a couple of minutes.

Useful Mixing Tips:

• For the best results, use quite warm water to mix. Similar temperature what you'd use for the washing-up or having a bath.

• Ensure you reach to the bottom of the bucket to prevent lumps forming. Move your hand around every part of the bucket.

• If mixing in Mega quantities with a mixer, very warm water can be used. Always check the temperature before touching and using. 

• Remove the electric mixer and continue stirring the gunge for a couple of minutes, ensuring there are no hidden lumps.
