FireIce Gel which extingushes Class A,B & D fires

Testing a new wetting agent called FireIce Gel which extingushes Class A, B hydrocarbon and alcohol fires and D. We found it to be much better than FireAide 2000 Racing formula which is better than Cold Fire. The object lit was a 09 VW beetle steering column with a magnesium crash box lit with accerants and an oxy-aceteline torch. Also a piece of pressure treated 2×4 wood was used. Once out the torch couldnt even relight either object. We will be doing another test with carbon fibre body panels, mag-alum & magnesium components with both a PWC and the Intelegard MACAW unit
