Lampblack into tigertail


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi I thought to replace some of the Charcoal into tigertail stars to make them burn longer and improve the color.

I thought to make 3 batch and try to replace 50%,25% and 15% of the Charcoal as a start.

But before trying and wasting chemicals I thought it would be better to ask to the experts :)

 

So what do you guys think about this?

 

Thank you!

I would add and not replace as something to try. Also add 2 to 5 percent and adjust from there.

 

My 2 cents

Well given the high charcoal content of tt i would stay with replacing, but start with 5%

A friend of mine used to make TT with a blend of different charcoals. It had 7.5% lampblack, and a blend of pine, BBQ briquette, and normal charcoal. Beautiful tail, but I'm not sure which part did it, or a combination of everything.
