Could you put the AP mixture (acid,proxide,acatone) in the freezer insted of a fridge? Will this speed up the reaction time or will i have to still store it for three days untill the reaction has stopped?? one more thing, how sensitive is AP?? will it go off under the pressure of your hand?? could you please give examples. eg. it will go off under the pressure of you foot or you dong or what ever. |

You need the freezer to get the lower temperatures, the lower temp insures you get the most stable form of AP. The 3 days is not necessary, but it helps to squeeze the highest yield out of the reaction. The stability varies, but a good blow should do it. ------------------ |
