    Tracer chemistry uses magnesium metal mixed with a strontium-based oxidizer (strontium nitrate, strontium chlorate, strontium peroxide or some combination thereof!). ALL of those oxidizers produce hydrophyllic/corrosive residue.

    BTW, just cause you can't see it Red, don't mean it ain't burning...chemistry just doesn't work like that!
