    G' morning everybody! Science geek question(s) ahead, 

    I'm aware of the egg method, but does it work as well as Liver of
    Sulfur (or Win Ox, etc.)? Is the reaction the same, just that the
    chemical application is immediate whereas the egg exposure takes a
    prolonged time? is there a layer of black actually being laid down on
    the surface with either method? Can I use straight potassium sulfide
    from my lab at work!? Is this one for John Burgess? 

    Thanks in advance as always for helping us new guys understand
    stuff! Carol
