Well I am just making coloured smoke b**bs because, well I just find them kind of interesting. I don't paintball or anything.
Mumbles, will powdered acrylic paint work with just Potassium Nitrate and Sugar? Or will I have to use lactose or something isntead?

Okay then. So you're thinking that the KNO3/Sucrose mixture is too hot that it just doesn't work? If so, then what can I add to make it burn at a lower temperture?

I see...

Well is there any place I can obtain potassium chlorate locally (like used for a fertilizer or something)?

Alright, I finally got around to making it...
To spare a long ass story about how I put wood in a can, etc. I'll just get to my problem.

I took my wood out after being "charcoaled" and now it seems to be as soft as styrofoam. Is this right? Also, after grinding it with a mortar and pestle, is the charcoal supposed to be really light?

Thanks again.
