I'm posting this so that it can be added to the newly-created cocaine FAQ.
Ninja Coke -- Stealth Blowing FAQ by vvumpscu7
-------------------------------------------------
You always wanna blow a couple lines before you go out, but then what happens when you get to a bar or club and it wears off right after you get there? Alcohol helps to maintain it, but there are additional health risks. You could blow off the top of a toilet tank , but the thought of that makes me cringe. There are several things you can do in order to maintain your high while minimizing unwanted attention. It is unlikely that your average citizen in a bar is going to call the police, but no high is worth getting caught. Have fun and be safe.
Bullets
------
The traditional snuff bullet screws on the top of a small standard-size vial. It has a rotating valve with an indentation for your microbump. These can be the most aggrevating thing in the world when you're just trying to get enough blow to stay up. As your tolerance increases over the course of the night, the bullet will become harder and harder to turn. If your product isn't bone dry, it will jam harder than anyone on the dance floor. To avoid this, put your coke in a moisture-proof freezer bag overnight with one of those dessication capsules found in bottles of prescription medicine. Also, unless you are particularly dextrous, they require two hands so it's harder to discreetly reload the bullet. There is only one replacement part for these, the valve that you should replace every couple uses, since the coke chews up the rubber gasket. The valves come at around $.50 and a complete unit is $6-8 unless you buy a bunch.
Rocketblaster
-----
The Lexus of snuff bullets. They start at $27 for the standard model. They even sell a gold-plated one for $100. I'd want my name and phone number engraved on that thing in case I lost it. These bullets work significantly better than the traditional snuff bullets. If you keep your product dry and finely ground, you shouldn't have any clogging issues with this method. With a twist of the wrist, you can reload with one hand. They hold more, though when your ammunition runs low it can take a little effort to get out the remainder out of the chamber. The bumps are more generous than the old bullets. The only real drawback I've encountered is the fact that it loads up the product right next to the carb hole, and if your not careful, it can all fall out. I think they could improve this device by putting a fine screen over the carb hole, or putting the hole in a different location. Like the traditional bullets, wash out this tool between each use and let it air-dry. Replacement parts are usually good (like $15 for everything), but I haven't had to use mine yet. Definitely Skip the O-rings and find them at a hardware store.
Snuff Rocket
-----
Low-cost alternative to the Rockblaster. It's just as good, but the metal screw in the plastic body is more apt to become cross-threaded. No worries, though, since they only cost $6. Unless you like flossin' the aluminum Rocket Blaster, go with this!
Nasal Spray
-----
This was already discussed in erowid's preparations/recipes section. Drug police and "rave" security have caught on to this one though. I will add one extra tip that is you should rinse your powder-caked vials and bullets with an eyedropper and pour the waste liquid in a spare nasal inhaler. Some meth even gets into the mixture as well.
Use this to squirt in your nose while you're doing powder to minimize damage. I fill my regular squirter with a generous solution, which is about a half-gram into 10 mL of water.* I prefer snowblowing over this method since the rush is more apparent.
* Trick for measuring: Most contact lens cases are around 5-6 mL each side.
Plugging
-----
This gives you a much longer (though weaker) high than any other method and is the best way to stay far above baseline for most of the night. The come-down is softer, too. Put a couple chunks (100-200mg) inside a gel capsule and stick that sucker in as far as your can, at least one knuckle deep. (Or two?) Use ample lubricant and a condom or rubber glove. Be sure to practice putting your finger in there before you start. I've had gelcaps melt in the lube when I was first trying this.
Straws
-----
This is a desperate solution, but it works and they're small enough to fit in your wallet. Cut straws into 2" lengths. Seal one end by holding over a lighter and melting it closed. Put a couple pinholes in the bottom of the straw so that air can flow through. Put in some *dry* finely chopped product and seal the top by folding it over and tape (masking tape works best). You don't want to seal the top the same way as you sealed the bottom because those straws are impossible to get open without scissors or a nail clipper. Just rip of the tape and pull.
Andean Native Style
-----
I figured this out one night after my nose would no longer accept any deposits. Tear off a piece of toilet paper and wrap up about 150mg of coke in there. Stuff it under your lip and you're good-to-go for about 30 minutes. This is an inefficient last-resort method to maintain your high and not look like a burnout in public. You will look funny and your face will go numb. In my opinion you're better off calling it a night and letting yourself come down.
Women's Makeup Compact
----
This is obvious, since it's basicly a miniturized version of the mirrors you may use at home. Good ones have enough extra room to hold your cocaine, too.
Baggies
----
Absolute last resort. Tap a portion of powder into one corner of your baggy. Insert rolled bill into baggie. Sniff hard.
Non-stealth supplies:
-----------
Pyrex glass tube (where can I get one?), though an eye dropper works if you put the big end in your nose.
Mirrors - 12"x12" (6 for $8 at Home Depot)
Razor blades ($5 for 100 at HD)
Vials (less than $1 at online)
Scoop (I've found an apple corer works well)
A precise scale is also *very* useful. You'll know if someone's ripping you off. If nothing else, it's good to keep track of how much money you are putting up your nose in a night. The My Weigh MX50 (reads to .01g) is the best for your money at Internet prices $110-150. "Retail" is $240 supposedly.
Be sure you put all drug-tainted evidence in a separate garbage bag without your junk mail. Take it out and throw it away somewhere other than your own home.
