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.

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!

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

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.

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.
