Best description I ever heard for Napalm was "jellied" gasoline... I just never bothered to find out what they use to turn the gas into a loose gelatin... soap? Really? DUZ?

(...and for you young whipper/snappers... Duz, a powdered laundry soap and later, a powdered laundry detergent which had glassware and plates in each box; last made in 1980.)

I use Palmolive, have for decades...Never used Duz...I recall the recipe only because it was so out of place in a gentlemen's magazine...Along with sci-fi novels ("The Fly")...

Liquid soap would seem to be more appropriate for a jellied exfoliate...But that's my memory of the recipe...
