Fence-post prime
Källa: Eugene Yurek, https://www.amateurpyro.com/forums/topic/2676-fence-post-prime/
Composition 100g
- Potassium Nitrate 65
- Charcoal Airfloat 12
- Sulfur 10
- Diatomaceous Earth 5 (Kiselgur)
- Silicon, 325 mesh 5
- Charcoal, spruce, ball milled 3
Named for it's purported ability to light wet fence posts in a hurricane. The silicon burns and forms molten glass.
I don't want to copy and paste the comments from passfire here but I'll try to cover a few bases.. The DE makes this stuff pretty fluffy. Use about 1/3 less than you would with a regular prime. A layer 1-1.5mm thick is all you should ever need. If your stars are ridiculously difficult, up the silicon to no more than 10%.
