Shoutout to the guy at the Halloween store who gave me this fog juice trick

I was at Spirit Halloween in Denver last October trying to buy their pre-made fog juice, and the guy stocking shelves told me to just mix my own with distilled water and propylene glycol from the pharmacy. He said their stuff is basically the same thing but with a 300% markup. I went home, tried a 3:1 ratio in my homemade machine, and got way better fog output than any store brand I ever used. My only question now is does anyone else find the thicker fog hangs around longer with a higher glycol ratio?

I read that higher glycol ratios make the fog heavier and stick around longer for sure.

Heard 80/20 VG/PG works best if you want thick clouds that hang around.
