Here's an interesting article that is entirely unrelated and for educational purposes only.

Hey so I'm a pro fire performer and love sharing fun facts about fire performance. In fact, I never charge for fire safety basics.
We never use kerosene or gasoline, it's disgusting and highly volatile. Of the two, kerosene burns a bit slower and for longer. Just avoid gasoline all together. Our common fuels are camp fuel (aka white gas or naphta) and lamp oil, both of which are wind resistant. Lamp oil burns for a long time and is slippery as hell, but it's hard to ignite so we'll sometimes mix it with some white gas when we want to get our props going quick. We only really use alcohols indoors since they're not wind resistant, but they produce low smoke which is neat.
Modern wicks are made out of 100% kevlar, but older style torches use cotton from rags or tshirts. It has to be replaced quickly but works in a pinch.
For clothing, we only wear natural fibers. Synthetics will melt into your skin and turn a mild burn into something nasty. Naturals are bamboo, cotton, wool, and similar. Synthetics are spandex, polyester, acrylic, etc (except for purpose made synthetics like Nomex). Leather is probably the best thing you can wear, and thick denim pants are an easy to find staple. Many hoodies are also safe for fire spinning in winter but check the tags first.
Most importantly, never use fire without a dedicated safety with a safety blanket. 100% thick wool, duvetyne, or a damp cotton towel are most common
Or just tape a storm match on it and light it before you throw. That way it only ignites on delivery.
What would you use if you wanted it hot and sticky?
Ah yes let me just stroll over to my pantry and grab a few pints of blood.
You keep it in the fridge and I can buy it at my local grocery store.
