Yeah hard is slang for crack and soft for the powder or rather the HCL snortable cocaine,and it is easy to cut some powder and then use a press and get it back into a chunky solid form or using the method on the post above a few...but generally the cocaine hcl that you snort is better if it's in a chunk,slab or "rock" form..not rock as in crack but a soft rock..cocaine hcl is water soluble while crack is cocaine made into a base by baking soda which futhers cuts the purity and crack is not water soluble,it has to have lemon juice or vinegar or some weak acid mixed with water to vbreak it down into injectable form,but shooting crack like that is dirty and I don't wanna have to mix lemon or lime juice or vinegar to break down crack if I wanna IV coke,i will just get some good "soft"
This is incorrect, it actually purifies the cocaine. The cuts will precipitate and sink to the bottom, while the coke rises.
This is why you will always get less back then you started with, how much less depends on the quality of the coke you started with.
The quickest way to purify HCL for injection is by baseing it then converting it back to HCL with citric acid or vitamin C powder.
