poizzin Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I hope this is in the right area . if not please let me know or move as needed. I searched for somthing like this but no positive results has anyone made or thought of making a chart to help others find the chemicals at various stores ? example chem - common name - store found - price/unitKNO3 - spectracide stump remover - Lowes - $5.40/lbNH4NO3 - ortho fertilizer 34-0-0 - Lowes - $10.50/40lb this could go on and on done up in Excel would make a nice quick referance for finding supplies.
asilentbob Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 There are many many many of these lists... try searching along the lines of OTC chemicals.
poizzin Posted September 17, 2007 Author Posted September 17, 2007 I performed OTC , OTC chemicals, chart, and a few other searches but don't seem to be finding. I will keep looking. I just thought that it would be a nice feature to pin for easy access since chems are getting harder to find every day. thanks

poizzin Posted September 17, 2007 Author Posted September 17, 2007 yes read that one. Not really a quick access chart, now is it. there is some good info here though. I am going to start working on somthing.
Pyroblast Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 Hey guys, for some reason the forum won't let me start a new topic, so I'll just ask my question here.I want to try some KmNO4/MgAl flash. I have a good source for 600 mesh MgAl, but I was wondering if the KmNO4 sold on ebay in the 3 lb containers is good stuff for flash. There are a couple sellers selling ACS grade Permanganate by the pound. Is the price difference between the 3 lb technical grade lots and the 1 lb ACS grade lots worth it?Will either work well for flash?
frogy Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 For god sakes... flash discussion on a chemical chart thread? At least put it in random... You cannot make a new thread because Mumbles has setup the forum that you must made 1 post before you can make a new thread... Yes, you did have one post, but it's not one post, it's one post after he setup the configuration this way... Anyways you shouldn't start new threads for something like that anyway... KmNO4 is sold in hardware stores sometimes... I don't really know where in a hardware store.. and it is also sold in pool supply stores\plumbing stores for removing iron from the water... ACS grade is just a rip of... Tech grade is plenty good for flash
Pyroblast Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 Sorry frogy, I wasn't aware of that new configuration.Thanks for the help though.
