    I just made some flash powder with this stuff and it is POWERFUL. This powder mixes well and is free of clumps. The flash powder I made with this is SEVERAL times more powerful than the stuff you can harvest from consumer grade fireworks. A little goes a long way.

    I agree with you

    Excellent quality, extremely fine, exceeds my expectations as far as competitive price goes.
    Best bang for your buck.
    Product here is about 200% lower than other site. Very please

  4. Stepanie Flamm – February 7, 2021

    This stuff is amazing to work with. So much better than the Indian. Pay the little extra and get the good stuff

  5. Kattie Harston – February 8, 2021

    Your price on this is amazing. I was skeptical at first because it’s half or even more than what others are charging but this is the exact right stuff and works amazing. I will be back

  6. Cody Eaglen – March 26, 2021

    I did not think this was the same stuff that others are selling for 2 or 3 times as much but it is the genuine German Dark I have been looking for. Amazing product as an amazing price

    Great product, super price, and works better then all the rest. Crazy is what other companies charge for it now-a-days. I have seen it priced at twice as much, from large mail order companies. Just happy to find a new home for my purchases… HERE!!!!! Everything is super, I am again happy!

  10. Rated 5 out of 5

    Runic7 – June 13, 2021

    Bang! This aluminum powder is the best you’re going to find out there! Free flowing airfloat aluminum that doesn’t clump like the Indian. Produces a sharp crack when put loosely into a 1.75 inch aerial shell. As Thorlancaster said, a little goes a long way- approximately 200mg is all you’re going to need for an entertaining blast in the sky. Side note, it also looks great as a colorant for painting.

    It is the best, not in my opinion, that is FACT. If your unlucky and it’s sold out or it won’t let you buy any more cuz you hit the limit, you can try the Indian blackhead as a replacement. I wish I could get my hands on more of this

    Beyond expectations! Makes extremely brisant flash that’s surprisingly stable with friction/impact tests. Great prime booster as well, not too mention the awesome price and no rip off shipping (unlike competitors charging almost $20 to ship one pound of chem)

    I would give it ten stars if I could, it works better than most that I have seen out there, I deff recommend it for your needs.

    Ryan – October 19, 2024

    Good stuff, what can I say. I’m more impressed by the fact that they dropped the price by over seven dollars a pound once the supply was higher. Most companies would keep the price high if it was still selling well.
