That reads wonderfully. Nearly always cooking Asian. Does it dry clean or leave a film residue?

I would say a slight film residue.  It's not too bad and is one of the reasons I've always enjoyed the Maol splashes

HoosierShave, I've got 56 grams of Asylum Royal Fougère left. That's just about the same as your Oaken Lab Far Afield. I'll stick with my soap as long as you stick with yours. Deal?

You have yourself a deal my friend!

But I will give fair warning, I am attacking this tub with everything I have including blooming, 28mm boar or 30mm synth and a 30 to 45 sec load.  I really don't think it will last the rest of this week

Drat, HoosierShave! I’ve been rash. When you mentioned having around 56 grams of Far Afield, I wrongly assumed it meant you had 56 grams of soap. However, judging by the picture of your soap on the scale, it appears you only have around 12 grams remaining. There’s no way I can keep up with you. You've got your crosshairs on your soap, and I believe you'll have a nice trophy for the wall by the end of week. Nevertheless, I still want to participate in completing a soap, and the thinnest one I have is this Spitfire, weighing approximately 39 grams. Even though I won't see plastic for a good while, it will be a pleasure to be your wing man. So tally-ho! Let’s do some damage to these pucks.

Last night, I wanted to use them both, but I just couldn't decide which. Then I decided... to use both.
