Flash Paper For Magicians
Storage Myths, Insurance and Safety
Magicians love using flash paper, flash cotton, flash string and stage pyrotechnics. In a world where the use of fire in performance is becoming more difficult we thought it timely to Steve Lawrence who imports, sells and uses everything from flash products thorough to grand firework displays to get the low down on handling, storage, safety and insurance.
In this episode we discuss:
What is flash paper?
What are the chemicals?
Where else are these chemicals found?
How serious is correct handling and storage?
How does spontaneous combustion happen?
Is it necessary to have flash paper wet to transport it?
Where and how should you store flash paper?
How long will they last?
What quality products exist?
How do you know if you have good quality? or not?
Safety … outline the steps you carry out
Insurance: Where is fire banned? Where is it allowed?
