You shouldn't be able to smell it unless your putting it right up to your nose. And then it should have a slightly acrid smell.

Wash it very well. I did mine by running a thin stream of cold water from the tap and washing the crystals for a couple of minutes on the filter. Pure white sparkling needles.

is putting up to your nose bad?
I hope not.
and mine are pure white.
I dont know why every book I ever read on HMTD says "wash the crystals good with lots of water"
or something to that affect, HMTD does not appear to be crystals, but AP is crystals.
and I think I'am switching from HMTD to AP for good, I get a HUGE yeild with AP, but its not so good with HMTD

Using the word crystals is a generic term meaning anything solid, there are many different types of crystals, acetone peroxide is just more stereotypic.

My batch of AP ended up being a flop because I didn't make enough, and they stuck to the filter paper. (when i was rinsing it)

How do you filter it/with what and how do you get the crystals off of the paper!??!?! grrr please help me out here.

I wasted about 1g of AP because I couldnt get it off the filter.
I got the large amounts off, but there was still a thin layer on it.
I suggest making a very big batch, I just let some off, and it is very not strong.
I let off about 2 or 3 grams, then I let off about 5.
and if you want AP for firecrackers and loud bangs, forget it.
it might have nice power, but it isnt loud atall.
well I guess thats good.
and I let off about 4 grams of hmtd under a 2 pound log, it was fucking sweet.
the log flew about 5 to 10 feet in the air,
and there was a fair size crater in it, and an even bigger crator in the ground!~!~!
if you can, make HMTD, it is ALOT more powerful

AP likes a nice confinement in order to do more damage, but HTMD is indeed more powerful. When I ignited 1 gram of AP putty it was quite loud.

If you get the correct mixture of ingredientsn (not easy), i think youll find you get more HMTD in 1/4 the time as AP.
also it forms out as far finer crystals therefor looks like a smaller yeild, (you would of noticed AP compresses down to like 1/5th its original volume.) and of course the higher the density the higher the det. velocity, sharper the noise and more brisance.
But hell ... AP's still a lot easier to make aint it..

yeah i am going to have to agree with you on that on blaze. making AP is so much easier than making HMTD. ALL of the chems for AP are available just about any where but for the life of my i just can't find hexamine. so i favor AP but i WOULD choose HMTD over AP if i could make it.

To filter AP use a T-shirt, a little of it gets stuck in the fabric, but it is a great filter. Much better than a paper filter.

Yea, cloth lets the liquid through a lot faster then filter paper. I too use a small piece of cotton cloth to filter the crystals.

Aceton peroxide, HMTD, benzoyl peroxide all have the same smell of peroxides.
Kind of sour smell, like acetic acid...
