I've been making, & performing with, giant bubbles for about 7 years. I love them! I use JLube (there is another one called "Fist", but the site is definitely not veterinarian lol!!). I'm in UK, so no Dawn, instead Fairy Platinum. The formula has changed, but still works well. I add baking powder & a touch of guar gum. Just last week I experimented with adding a dash of liquid glycerine. Worked amazingly well.
I use telescopic fishing rods - light weight, & can collapse down for ease of transport.
Depending on conditions, I usually create bubbles approx 30 feet long. Biggest was 75 ft on the Scottish coast. People were walking & driving a mile to find out what they were!
I used to use j-lube, but i find it really finnicky. I now prefer to use guar gum. With jlube you need to measure by weight and its easy to have too much. The jlube potency also degrades over time, causing you to have to adjust the amount. Guar gum works just as good and its much more forgiving with the measurments. You can use measuring spoons instead of a scale. Look up soap bubble fandom for both the guar and jlube recipies. Another tip is to try and avoid foam by splashing the water. Foam makes it harder to make huge bubbles. Happy bubbling!
My Grandson (age 8) recently asked if we could try making giant bubbles, and I found a very basic kit with a kid-sized rope wand and a packet of powder (probably Guar Gum) that you add to Dawn & water to make 1 gal of bubble solution . He had an absolute blast with that!
We love to DIY stuff, and he really wants to make *his own* solution. So after reading a bit about J Lube and Guar Gum as additives, we're trying Guar Gum first since its cheaper, easier to work with, and (reportedly) works just as well. I've also seen recipes that use glycerine, but I haven't looked into whether that serves the same purpose as Guar gum or J lube. Some say it makes the bubbles longer-lasting and more resistant to popping so they can be handled or manipulated?
The Guar Gum I ordered got here about 7PM last night, so you can probably guess what we're doing today. 😆
@@R2KBADefender Glycerine can work but its nowhere near as effective as guar/jlube. Check out that soap bubble fandom wiki page, it has TONS of info regarding soap concentrations, atmospheric conditions, ingredient measurements etc.
Also, a little pro tip, dissolve the guargum in rubbing alcohol (>70%, 99% is best) before adding it to the water. Add just enough alcohol so its watery and can be poured easily. It doesnt dissolve in water very well on its own and will clump up if you dont make a slurry first.
You can use the solution right away but it will get even better if you wait overnight for the polymer to hydrate in the water.
@R2KBADefender Next week, I am doing a J lube verses guar gum video!
@@magicianword Let us know how it works out! I think that guar tends to foam up the solution a bit more and i think the bubbles are slighly heavier, causing them to sink to the ground a little bit faster. I dont think one is outright better than the other, i think they each excel in their own situations. I think guar might be slightly better when its less humid. (
@shadowkiller123
I got the idea from your comment, and it works really well!! I think you're right about both being good for different situations. I mentioned you in the video. it should be out on Sunday. Again, thanks for the tip.
Sir, You just saved me $40 from purchasing 2 fishing poles as suggested from another youtube video I watched. Great idea using the broom handles, my local kmart has extendable ones for around $3 so I'll be buying that tomorrow. Will also be making the clothes hanger one for my 2 yr old! THANK YOU for sharing, much appreciated :)
Glad I could help. Enjoy.
Thank you so much for this video; I followed the recipe and we all had so much fun with the biggest bubbles
I'm so happy to share, enjoy!
A little tip: any of the powdered ingredients (Baking Powder ,jlube(Vetone from Amazon also an animal husbandry/polymer) or guar gum, will dissolve in isopropyl alcohol (Rubbing alcohol) without partially hydrating which leads to clumping. So if you mix your powders with the iso first and make what is called a “Slurry” then add that to your water the mix will combine without the “clump” factor. And this will make it so the mix is ready to use RIGHT NOW! And it will work even better tomorrow. I usually make 5 gallons at a time and regularly go thru that much in a day of bubble making. If you get the mix just right and have ideal conditions it can be a very magical experience. I’ve made bubbles that take approximately 4 seconds from when they start popping to when they finish popping. Now that is a looooooong bubble.
And then there are the ones that will just keep on going going going until they fly away. Still haven’t quite figured out what it is that makes those ones happen because it’s the same mix, but only certain random bubbles have the “Thing” if anybody knows what it is I’d love to hear about it,. Until then I’m going to keep working on the mix until I can make a bubble and get inside it and just float there and run in place inside the bubble. I’m thinking that it’s going to take a special combo of polymers and that long lost stash of “Original Dawn Soap” sitting on a shelf somewhere just gathering dust.
Thank you will try...!
That's not a little, but it's amazing.
Thank you so much! I too am I bubble enthusiast. I'll be bringing your recipe and your ones to the campground where I work. I'm sure they will just love it !!

I noticed that people say they are waiting for summer. I create them all year round. No prob - unless it's a very strong wind or very hot & dry.
Thank you
This was such a lovely gift to us bubble-lovers! Happy New Year.

BRILLIANT thank you for sharing. Very entertaining 👏
Thank you!
The good news is that many people have given this recipe away, so no need to feel like you've given away a secret.
Nevertheless, thanks for sharing, I'll be trying it out on the kids.
I loved this! Thank you for sharing! I’m in my 50’s and bubbles still fascinate me🌸

You are welcome 😊
Thank you for all the tips. My kids have a bubble experiment for the end of year project to see who can make the biggest bubbles! We have two months to experiment. 😀
Awesome, good luck and take lots of pics!
They worked much better than the guar gum. We live in a hot area, so they burst quickly but they were able to get some big bubbles. Thank you!
Awesome my granddaughter will love this!
We are in Florida, i tried to buy bubble kit,only to find out they do not stock in winter
Enjoy!
Thank you so much! I am looking forward to trying this !!! Hugs and Kisses you for sharing the magic!!!
You are welcome enjoy! xoxo
Thank you you have a new subscriber
Thank you, happy bubbles!
Thank you so much!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
I also love bubbles and have a recipe. J-lube is available on Amazon, same for guar gum, another secret ingredient.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you mister, your guidance is priceless, I'm trying to organise a bubble show,my biggest problem is the solution, I've already know about the j lube, but my mix isn't strong enough to withstand all the figures, well, guess that I'll keep practicing, for your time and help thank you
if you go on here, there are a few other recipes that dont require the j lube mix. so it might be easier to use the guar gum , cheaper , and the baking soda mix. theres another man and a woman who also do these giant bubbles ok. try it, dont give up . i never do and i will be doing this as i loooooooooooooooove bubbles as well. kari xo
You are such a remarkable human
So sweet, thank you!
From the video "Physics secrets of giant soap bubbles", making bubbles is now ACADEMIC!
1. 1/2 teaspoon of guar powder is mixed with 3 teaspoons of rubbing alcohol, mix until no clump
2. combine the guar mixture with 2 pints of water and mix gently for 10 minutes (to hydrate the guar)
3. add 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder (not baking soda!!!) and stir
4. add 3 tablespoons of Dawn Professional Detergent, stir gently to avoid foaming
5. enjoy gigantic bubbles
hope this is substitute for people who find J-lube/surgilube unavailable/unaffordable and have fun making your own bubble juice!
For people who can't buy Dawn or wants to use other detergents, you can just buy regular dish detergents or bodywash brands and twice the amount you would with Dawn. I find it would work as well.
Thanks for all the detailed information. Happy 🫧 bubbles!
You forgot to mention the lube lol
For those that can't get Dawn, Green Dreft dishwashing soap is basically the same stuff. only diff is color because or marketing. Its from the same producers.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
will it work without the j luble, just less well? can glycerin stand in for it?
It will ... Karo syrup will sub as well. Good luck happy bubbles.
Many years ago while in school, I worked nights in a night club playing drums behind a dancer name Bubbles. If I recall correctly, I believe she used silicon.
Lol! ❤️
I see others use guar gum instead of jlube...can it substitute your j lube as well and shall it be diluted in alcohol as i see in others...thank you so much for this preciuos knowledge...much love to you sir!
Yes. Many things can be used as a polymer … sugar, Karo syrup, guar gum, lube, etc. my favorite is the J lube. Best of Bubbles..
Works great! Took it to the beach and had swarms of kids following me! However, my 16 ounce bottles have J-Lube clumped in the bottom the day after I make it. Seems to work ok. Am I adding too much J-Lube? I use a full tablespoon which looks like more than you're using in the demo.
Happy 🫧 bubbles!
Mix the J-lube n baking powder with just enough rubbing alcohol to cover the powder n mix them first, its called a slurry, then mix in with the water n then add the dish liquid, lump free n perfect....
@@hollysherwood8521 In a pinch, you can also mix the powder slowly into the Dawn dish soap before adding the water, to reduce (but probably not eliminate) clumping.
FYI use less soap and you get more colors in those bubbles
Merhaba. Bu tozlar hakkında Lütfen daha açıklayıcı bilgiyi benim dilimde verebilirmisiniz. Bu veterinerler için olan tozu anlayamadım. Diğeri de sanırım kekler için kabartma tozu. Yardımcı olursanız çok sevinirim
Umarım yardımcı olabilmişimdir, kabartma tozu doğru, diğeri ise bir ineği yağlamak için kullanılan bir veteriner yağlayıcı. Kullandığım marka J-Lube. Kişisel bir kayganlaştırıcı bulmak da zorsa işe yarayacaktır. İyi şanlar.
@@magicianword Teşekkür ederim. 🙏😇
U can use klube , jlube, or new on the market (Amazon) xlube.
How about any typenof lubricant like ky jelly would it be possible
Try it for sure, i have used surgical lube as well!
Bubbles are so fun
I agree!
@@magicianword they bring the fun to everyone
Thank you for sharing. How long will this bubble mix hold good? A week, month? If I put it in a bottle will it last longer ? I need it for magic applications and would like to have a brew last me longer.. thank you!
It stays good for a couple of weeks easy,
I have used month old before, but due to the fact you can add the gallon of water at the last min. I keep the small bottles for months sometimes. Good Luck!
@@magicianwordthank you brother 🙏 can I make a smaller batch say half the size or less by 1/2 the recipe?
@@humanoidy I don't see why not.
@@magicianwordthank you subscribed!
What length of string please?
Çok çok köpük oluyor ama.
Birşey daha koymaya lazım bence.
Sadece j-lube, pudra, su ve deterjan...
Gliserin lazım mi?
Ya da....
Thanks 🫧
Thank you!
Could j lube be substituted with ky jelly sir, i cant find j lube here in the philippines hahhaha only ky jelly lube for surgeons
Try it, I have also used surgical lube worked great! Enjoy.
Hi, i can't get jlub in my country. I can use glycerin, but how much? Thank you. Enjoy😉
Any kind of personal lubricants' or surgical lube. A little glycerin is good for hot days.
@@magicianword i find vet lube in gel. How much should i use? 100ml?
I am not sure... just start with a small amount teaspoon or less, and use it instead of the J lube. Then experiment with more or less depending on results. Hope this helps. Happy bubbles!
I want to use bubble recipe for small bubble for profession use can you help me out pls
I go with store bought miracle bubble.
Im confused as hell I must I've done something wrong before adding water it was a slime like consistency super thick and goopy then didnt want to mix into the water its globby
Yes, the concentrate is thick, but once it mixes with a gallon of water, it should be just right.
May have added too much j lube.
I assume the j lube ingredient is safe to use for kids to pop bubbles?
Not for human consumption, and I wouldn't get it in your eyes. Other than that, enjoy.
Hı , If we don't have j-lobe, what should we use instead
You can use Caro syrup if it is for outdoor use. Personal lubricants (ky)
Or medical lubricant. Good luck.
what materials did you use?
Just cotton clothes line.
Sir I am a Magician from INDIA..In your Bubble liquid recipie you mentioned about a lubricant. I think it's not available in India.Can I skip that ? Otherwise plz.menton a substitute.Thankyou.
Yes , many personal and surgical lubricants will work, guar gum, and if you are working outdoors and don't mind the mess, Caro syrup. Hope this helps good luck.
Aerulanescence or Aeroinviscence.... can you pick a name for me?
What is it J Lube?
Good question: It is a product that farmers and veterinarians use it on large animals like cows and horses. You can buy it on Amazon. Good luck.
İs dawn soap
Thank you!
Thank you...
