This is a great book, using the Burn principle in a different manner. A very different manner.
Just to let you know, there is a bit of bad language.
Right, warnings over, get out your spray cans guys!

This is rather cool. Once I've made it up, this will be a real worker for me. It does exactly as it says on the tin, which as Randall mentions in his foreword that he has never performed these effects, is pretty good.
GREASE
Oh Wow! I tried this out and it looks so...magical. I didn't do it on a wall but did it on a piece of dark paper. If you did it on fabric it would look even better, but the method behind it would mean that you can't carry it around. Only perform this if you have permission from the owner of the wall before you do this, as I'm guessing that on a wall this would look so much better.
DUSTY
The first thing I'd like to say here is to mention that through my experimenting, This doesn't work.
I have burnt the paper and blown it on the wall, and it just hasn't stuck. Maybe a size of paper or ammount of ash would have been nice to put in.
This was really dissapointing for me as it was the reason why I bought the book, but through buying it I have found some really good magic.
IN POCKET
I think that this was a scraping the barrel effect, that was put in to make the book slightly bigger.
It is a great idea for customisation, but I don't think it could be used as a piece of magic.

It took me a while to figure out this trick. I don't think it's badly written, I just skipped the main part.
This I will use if I find something that matches the red spray.
It is a very clever effect and if you have the ultragaff deck, then you don't need to make the gimmick.
All in all I'd say for a fiver you can't go wrong, and I hope many of you enjoy it as much as I do.
