I have asked several people on the Café who have the hot rod convertible if it will work with flash paper the same way it does flash string. Nobody has given me a confirmed answer. They all say it probably would or it might not be hot enough.
Could somebody out there with this item please try it with flash paper and post the results? Thank you for the help.

Yes, it will work with flash paper. I have done it, but you do have to hold one end, light it, and then switch your grip from one hand to the other. It also helps to give it a quick rub as soon as it has burned.
But to answer your question, yes the color changes just like the flash string, however I believe that flash string burns a little hotter than paper. I may be wrong about that. Bill Palmer would probably know for sure.
Magic is an art. I am merely a tour guide.

I have been looking for this effect, and having a hard time finding it.
Can someone point me in the direction of where to pick it up? Thanks much! RevJohn |

Flash paper works...but you have to encase it in the paper and, as has been mentioned, you have to switch hands pretty quick. Not that it's necessary for the trick...it's just necessary to keep from getting a quick little burn on your fingertips!
Flash cotton burns a wee bit slower and also works. But I just personally prefer to stick with the string. It's an exclusive David Mann invention, so you can find it at http://www.precisionmagic.com. I got one of the early models and it turns from black to white. They're making custom ones now that turn practically any shade of the rainbow you want. I've got to get me one of those!!! |
