CASTILLARENO, the composition that I used was Weingart Granite Stars:
Potassium nitrate - 14
Sulfur - 2.5
Charcoal - 7
Zinc dust - 40?
Dextrin - 1
The paper I used was ordinary kraft paper, or brown paper.
Daniel... And ANOTHER composition MAKE WITH POTASSIUM PERCHLORATE
( RED, example) or PINK, etc... TRIED FOR YOU ???
The metallic colours made with POTASSIUM PERCHLORATE (NO CHLORATE) and AL/MG (NO MAGNESIUM) they are my favorites.

I have been doing some experimenting with these shells and I have had one that
Next is a shot of the leaves we will be using in this shell.
Now 25 leaves are loaded into each hemi like so.
Please, what exact composition you have used in the formula of failling leaves ?
And another question: the paper that you use for make the leaves ( fall down and are hot perfectly) it is a special paper ?
I congratulate you on the photos: However an image says much more than thousand words. They are marvellous photos in the filling of the CARCASA!!!
Sorry: I write with web-translator spanish- english / english-spanish.
In Topic: How to prepare smoke compositions
30 September 2004 - 09:43 PM
Sorry if this type of thread exists, I have looked for it but haven't found anything that answers my questions.
I have all the ingredients to make white, red and yellow/orange smoke compositions:
White Smoke
Potassium chlorate......... 44
Sulfur flour............ 15
Zinc dust.......... 40
Sodium bicarbonate ..........1
Red Smoke
Potassium Chlorate.......... 6
Lactose.............. 4
Rhodamine .............10
Sodium Bicarb............. 1
Dextrin...............1
Yellow/Orange
Potassium Chlorate........ 6
Lactose........... 4
Fluorescein .........10
Sodium Bicarb....... 2
Dextrin........ 1
Firstly has anyone made these compositions up succesfully and did they work well?
How do you prepare the compositions? Do you simply mix them up and pack them into a device or do you need to add a solvent and granulate them, or something different?
Also what type of casing should I use in view as using them to produce a smoke screen?
Again I apologise if this type of thread already exists.
ALL THESE COMPOSITIONS ARE MADE WITH POTASSIUM CHLORATE ?
Uhhhhhhhmmmm Bad, dad, bad...
