JackA

I'm playing at the $0.01/0.02 level, which I guess isn't really $5NL, but that is the max buy-in for Stars. Table is REALLY slow (23 hand in 32 minutes), but fairly loose. Villain is 74/4/0.2 so loose passive. Additionally he has folded to 4 of 6 c-bets to this point. I rarely c-bet at this level, but I shot a few out there and they worked so I started using them.
I included the results since I felt they were relevant to my questions.
My questions:
1) Am I raising enough PF? 4xBB + limpers adequate for this level? Is is going to even be possible to get this guy to fold sooted hands PF?
2) Is it a mistake to c-bet against 2 opponents in this situation? Indeed, it might just be chip spewing at this level to even consider a c-bet.
