Screen together pre-milled components, or ball mill all but Magnalium then screen it in before dampening. Dampen with 6-8% water and pump.
Very nice gold glitter.
Excellent delay, bright gold flashes. Fairly slow burning, meal priming is highly recommended to engulf the stars properly.
Magnalium is typically a mixture of -60+325 mesh sizes rather than purely -200 mesh, but with the majority of the material -100 mesh. Coarse fractions of Magnalium makes the composition crackle a bit as it burns, which in the air and from a distance makes the glitter make a "rushing" sound as it burns adding to the overall effect.
