are there any type of fireworks that have a bunch of rp?

ive heard that. those that burn w/ a red flame supposedly. im going to look more into this as that would be so much fucking better than scraping matchbook pads.

Most red fireworks will contain strontium nitrate, not RP. I doubt you'd find any usable amounts of RP in a firework; it makes them dangerous.

whats RP?

but rp in red flares burn red??? any other rp options?

strontium is a available in 1-lb quantities from Iowa Pryo.

RP is NOT "in" flares.... and why do you automatically assume when something burns red it must be RP

RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!! please

No fireworks produced now have any redp in them. Flares do have a small amount in the striker cap. Redp does not burn red!

whoopsy. thats just what i heard. <<<sivvy blushes and resigns statements>>>

Diamond is cheap. Buy a bunch, get the whole family involved. Cut, scrape, cut, scrape. Have a good time with it.

Oops...cut, soak, scrape.

Matches have RP in them, i mean, the striker on the box has RP along with glass. When the mtch strikes the RP glass mix the glass rubs on the RP turning it into WP and igniting the match.

I fucking hate obtaining red phosphorus. Thats what other methods are for. Only would I have to REALLY need rp for something good (meth isn't good enough for all that bullshit) to painstakingly scrape all that bullshit. The rp you get from match strikers isn't even pure anyway. It's probably like 60-75% rp.

40% genius.

what uses does rp have anyway i found fire resistant polyeurethane foams have it in it is that possible to extract it out of. I think the people should open a mine.
