| Fuel Type: Description Rating * - **** Hairspray The most basic and commonly used fuel for potato guns. The most popular brand is Aqua Net. Great if your a beginner. Just open the chamber, spray for a few seconds, screw on the cap, and hit the igniter. The bad thing about hair spray is it sticks to the end cap and makes it hard to get off * * Carburetor Cleaner Burns fast, which is very good. Works just like hairspray. Just open, spray, close, and ignite. Leaves a terrible smell, though. * * * * Propane Good fuel! It's just hard to get the right amount. The best mixture is 5% to air. Also propane is heavier than air.Clean and powerfull leaves no residue * * * Alcohol Denatured alcohol appears to work well as a propellant. Use a regular hair spray bottle. There must be a fine mist in order to ignite it. A liquid will not cooperate. * * * Butane Butane is a little less common, and appears to be more powerful than propane. I've seen it in the sporting good section. Difficult to get "just the right amount." You can easily put in too much, or too little, and end up not being able to ignite it. * * * Aqua Net plus a little something extra! Take Aqua Net hairspray and spray it into the chamber. Then drop some rubbing alcohol into the chamber. Then roll the chamber around 5 for 6 times. Lastly shoot. * * * Aerosol Right Guard Works better than hairspray, WD-40 and Carburetor Cleaner. Just costs a few dollars a can. Leave a nice smell. The best feature of this fuel is it doesn't leave any residue in your gun. Recommended for our Basic Potato Gun! * * * * FOGGER a fogger works alright for beginners not too much residue. and is pretty powerful HOT SHOT powerful smells like flowers GAS easy to find powerful,loud ,cheap and oh yeah, very dangerous. Put it in a spray bottle and mist the chamber lightly. STARTING FLUID cheap,easy to use , dont put alot in SPRAY PAINT paints gun,better than hair spray AQUANET MEGA HOLD little residue really powerful gotta try it !! be careful!! |
