Why is Marvis Toothpaste so darn thick/dense?

[AceHarddrive]

Hi all!

I've been using Marvis toothpaste for a while now and love it. I've been wondering why the stuff is/gets thicker/denser than plumber's caulk? How do you get the stuff out of the tube without damaging the tube?

Thanks everyone!

I use the tube roller things you can get from Crabtree and Evelyn with my Marvis and have had no problem getting it out.

Case closed!

Thanks for the solution--gotta love American, er, British ingenuity!

I also posted this question on SMF and TheWetShaversGroup. One person suggested that I dunk the tube in hot water for a bit to soften it up. I think that, plus the tube key should do the trick!

Thanks guys!
