Wait the Vaseline worked?
Okay so forget about what i said in the last post, because when i got home i tried the experiment one last time, and well it worked! The key is to rub a lot of Vaseline instead of just spreading it all over the paper. I don't have time to get into detail about every picture because i have to leave for diving soon, but before i left i wanted to get these pictures up.
Spring break reminiscing
I have completed the experiment of using Vaseline to waterproof the paper. Yea it didn't go to hot I have the pictures at home so either later this afternoon or tonight when I get home I will post those pictures on a separate blog. I'm using notebook paper, because it shows how well the paper is waterproof because of the blue and red ink that is used for the lines on the paper. If the notebook paper gets wet the ink will smear and it becomes a complete mess. The Vaseline didn't work to waterproof at all. I only did this because of my classmate Alex who gave the suggestion. My next attempt will be to use beeswax and I'm hoping it will work. I was exploring on Instagram when I saw a picture that said how to waterproof your shoes, and I read the link attached to it and it said to rub beeswax all over the shoe so hey it's worth a try. Once I get home and post the pictures I'll talk more about how the experiment with the Vaseline went but I want you to be able to see what I'm talking about so I'll wait.
