With Lancaster KP#1 you mean the stars I made I assume. Nice to hear itīs not my materialīs impurity.

Iīve heard a lot of positive feedback concerning those buell red stars and I will try them out soon. Just for interest: what is the best organic red star you can make? Do you have to use Sr(NO3)2 for these?
