I only lost my eyebrows once and that was when I was in the NAVY after messing around with a bit of thermite... Cooked my fingers pretty well too in the process. No scarring or anything like that though.

trying to picture the application but drawing a blank... are you suggesting a movable fluid that does not separate? Or a movable fluid with higher density?
