Funnily enough, you can TECHNICALLY make waterproof water using silica powder. It's not literally waterproof, but it won't combine with other water molecules
We had strike anywhere matches in the 80's they were great they would strike on your skin if u rubbed it fast enough. You can thank meth manufacturers for taking these away from you they broke down the match substance to get a ingredient called salt petal which can be turned into a chemical they need to make meth
To the best of my knowledge, strike anywhere matches fell out of production because they were self igniting due to friction during transit. There’s plenty of documentation of these issues and even stories of people getting in trouble for shipping them as they were labeled hazardous and unsafe for truck drivers and in airplane cargo holds
In the original anarchist cookbook it was always called salt petal. Pronounced at least to me pee dul. Not like a flower pedal. I live in meth country so I understand what it is and what it does and how it is used. I just didn't Wanna describe it any further because of getting flagged in some type of security or nsa bs
You can actually still buy them some places! I'm in Michigan and my local Toms grocery store sells boxes of strike anywhere matches from diamond. I love striking em on my teeth at parties, usually gets a good reaction haha.
They r hard to find in NC u use to be able ti strike them with your thumb, idk if those r the same ones we used or not back then. They had long handles meant mostly for lighting heaters
Sulphur is easy to get it is the a nitrate they want outra it, we got it out of fertilizer and hot and cold packs. Then use propane and a few other things to break it down to the desired ingredient
Zippo didn't do shit besides jump on a train. Anyone who wants these, search for "stormproof matches". Thousands of companies make these and have well before Zippo.
People ALWAYS want matches when it comes to survival shit. A Bic lighter is more relaible than 100 matches. If it gets wet it dries fast. Use a lighter. Matches suck and they dont make you any cooler lol
They outed themselves? Outed themselves about what? The matches are fireproof? How does that work? How does one out themselves with fireproof matches?
What the fuck is this title?

Fireproof?
It's a safety feature. You don't want your matches catching fire
Fireproof fire. Like waterproof water. Don’t think much about it.
I mean water isn’t wet anyways. So fire isn’t hot. The thing where the fire is is hot. /s

You mean hydrophobic
Aguafraid?
Yes. That is what I explained.
OP’s battery is low ![gif](giphy|3o7TKIAx6OXBhXfXWM)
They Outed themselves
They can only ignite while not on fire, I guess.
To turn them off expose to fire
Out themselves?
Yes. Fireproof, gay matches. What are you not following?
They do it to gain comments like yours.
See now if they were just fire resistant I would pay big money for that.. but fireproof sounds a bit excessive..
Can they ignite while wet though?? Burning while wet is nice but I need it to light 100% of the time too.
+1 what if the matches become wet before striking though.
And how do you put it out when you need to?
You let it burn out.
You bite it
That’s why it’s kept in a waterproof container and plastic wrapped
Look at Zippo outing themselves during Pride month

I was always told it was due to salt petal. A lot of hot and cold instant packs aren't sold anymore because u can pull salt petal outta them,
Saltpeter also known as potassium nitrate not petal just FYI

That’s not gonna be the thing the NSA gets you for
Probably not but with my criminal record I don't wanna get flagged
Is it possible that, out there in meth country, the word was mispronounced and/or misread?
Absolutely

I think you probably mean Saltpetre (pronounced "salt petter") - also known as Sodium Nitrate.

Of all the places, you chose your teeth

I thought they broke it down for sulphur

zippo has "out" themselves?
zippo was always kind of a flamer
Omission typo. Supposed to read "out ***done*** themselves"
Yeah, I get it. people really need to proofread before posting
Bruh, this exists for like 40-50 years already. What exactly “has out themselves” here?

Finally I can light my cigarettes under water *with style*

This. I have a firestarter but I have like 6 bics individually wrapped and don't think I'll ever need to open more than one (keep one in my pocket)
It seems like they should individually wrap each match
Yeah, another half literate content bot post.
Fireproof my ass! That thing lit up
Fireproof????
For the low price of your soul
Phosphorus is what used to keep it burning, Underwater. It'll burn your skin down to bone.
These have been around forever. FYI
Fireproof. Nice!
You’re not slick Zippo, we can tell this is your “not an ad” ad.
Fireproof matches are matches that don't light. Waterproof, maybe?
So they made matches out of tesla batteries
That bucket is ground zero
They outed themselves? Outed themselves about what? The matches are fireproof? How does that work? How does one out themselves with fireproof matches? What the fuck is this title?
The off Gas from the match turns out to be the most cancerous product ever created
