Smoke Machines FAQsManufacturers use very pure pharmaceutical grade ingredients which have an impurity factor of one per billion or similar (very pure) plus the cost of transportation of bulky heavy fluid containers. Hazer fluid is generally more expensive than smoke machine fluid, as hazers aren't yet as common as smoke machines and use a different fluid type.
How do you find leaks with a smoke machine?
F.A.Q.The LeakMaster generates a thick, long lasting Diagnostic Smoke™ vapor from a non-toxic compound. When this smoke is introduced into the system to be tested, it quickly exits wherever there's a leak - See the smoke and you've found the leak. Additionally, the patented UltraTraceUV? solution when vaporized deposits a fluorescent dye at the exact location of a leak. All you do is use a conventional ultraviolet (UV) light - much like you would an A/C system.
What is the difference between rubbing with Mothers, and buffing by machine?
Frequently Asked Questions - Alloy Polishing Co.Mothers, and other brands of polish simply smooth the high points and remove oxidation, leaving a shiny appearance, only to quickly re-oxidize due to the open grain finish.

What is the difference between smoke detectors?
fs-businessBoth of these types of smoke detectors are designed to detect smoke in the air. The ionization detector responds slightly quicker to flaming fires (like draperies), with smaller particles of combustion, while the photo-electric detector responds quicker to smoldering fires (like a cigarette.) However, both types of smoke detectors have to pass the same test to be certified as a UL smoke detector, and both will warn you in almost all cases of fires.
