Instruction
1. Prepare a basis on which mix will be applied. To apply solution directly on hands rather harmfully. For this reason it is worth making small sticks or balls on which it would be possible to apply fire.
2. Take a woolen dense thread and reel up a small ball. 2-3 centimetric balls will be quite enough that 2-4 minutes to observe cold burning. To make some kind of torch, reel up a thread on a needle or a pencil.
3. Prepare ingredients for fire. It is desirable to make operation quickly and accurately therefore try that you had everything near at hand, and you had free access to all components of structure of a flame. You watch that there was no early mixture as you work with very complex and dangerous substances.
4. Take a small cup and pour out in it an alcohol tablespoon. Then add dry boric acid there (a spoon too) and add one drop of sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. Be accurate in proportions. Desire to make can lead to poisoning and other negative consequences ""more brightly"".
5. Warm up the turned-out mix. The safest way is by means of steam. 2-3 minutes on couple will be quite enough. Try a finger-tip if skin suffers, everything means normal.
