Rope treatment

Wet rope

After boiling for one hour, the rope is wet.  This rope has just came out from the boiling process. When rope is wet, it stock together in the crumb.

Dry rope

When the rope gets dry, it loosen up each other and start to drop.  To really make the rope dry, I believe it will take one week.  It is better to completely dry the rope in the high humid country like Singapore.  It will invite the moss to eat the rope if it is wet.
When you use the rope, it is highly advisable to dry it completely before you keep in the closet.
