Hi Anybody know the specs for the 15% and 30% fuel. I need to get some but the shipping company needs to know if it is hazzadous and if it is flamable before they put it on the ship. Please if anybody know the spec let me know so i can get my fuel shipped. thanks mike
Yes it is hazardous and flammable. In the US, depending on quantity and shipping method, there is a hazardous materials surcharge added to the regular shipping charges.

"Typical" glow fuel contains
Oil - 16 to 20 percent
Nitromethane - 15 or 30% for your example
Methanol - whatever percentage it takes to make the total equal 100
