Jordan Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I was opening up a "consumer" roman candle, magic lights by white ass, and noticed that that the small salutes were matched and primed on one end and on the other end of the tube was exposed flash. I have also seen this in insert tutorials and was wondering what kept the exposed flash from igniting. Does this have any effect on sound? Thanks All, Jordan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddewees Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 How is this even possible? It would certainly ignite, if not spill out while tumbling through the air... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyco_1322 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 You should post a picture. Whatever you think your are seeing is most likely not what you describe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I would like to see the tutorial you mention that describes inserts filled this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Probably just looks like flash. My Sky Thunder candles (a dud) looked the same way when I pulled it apart. It had grayish clay in one end of the tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 I think it's what dagabu is referring to. It's just a fine gray powder, although it looks like it has little bits of bright aluminum. If this is some type of plug clay why would it have that? Here is a picture, it's hard to tell because i'm using a 4th gen Ipod but it does have small aluminum flitters.

dagabu Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I just don't know, perhaps the tooling picks up some of the aluminum from the flash before pressing the plug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 More than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
