The End of the Glitter Conspiracy

This was literally revealed in the comments on the very first Reddit post about this. It's microtaggants in explosives. Most are destroyed, but the amount and color let them know. This is everything from demolition explosives to military grade stuff. They don't want people to know, so that anyone plotting to blow up something can be easily traced.

I find it hilarious that they didn’t outright ask the dude what he thought the answer to the big mystery question was. Irritating.

[@Robert_McGarry_Poems]

​@@_FullerFYII feel like the implication was that, whatever the modern answer to that question is, it is passed that gentleman's time... as in, he got fired before they started doing whatever it is we are looking for an answer to. Basically, they made it that far for him to tell them, that he doesn't know. Which is what the caveat at the end was about.

[@Kimmie6772]

The revelation that glitter companies are precision cutting companies first and glitter companies second is actually big. This greatly expands their customer/contract base to possibilities we might not have theorized yet. Also funny that people forgot that edible glitter was a thing for the toothpaste. It is also helpful that the definition of glitter expands to more than just plastic material.

[@chuppl]

glitter is deceptive. it wants you to think it’s one thing, while it’s really something else entirely✨

[@adityasixviandyj7334]

yes, if they can cut material that able break light to rainbow in powder form, they definitely can grind and sort particles as well... which will open up for many possibilities in new products or improvement on already existed products.

[@Awhqua]

I get what you’re saying with the new applications that we didn’t even think of but the quote “they don’t want anyone to know it is glitter” keeps coming back up for me. Cause wouldn’t that mean the secret is that something is actually simply just glitter?

[@adityasixviandyj7334]

​@@Awhqua more precise mean of glitter in this context are like this: they can cut any materials into certain shape & cut precisely, just like glitters, then use it just like they found a new innovative materials. I already imagine a scene like this: You had a car care company, need to make your own polishing compound. So you see a simple aluminium sheet, which very common object, cut into glitters, then they become new material that can be put inside an liquid wax, and sold it as a polishing compound... adjust the size of the glitter, then you can adjust how deep the compound will cut the paint. That's why they don't want people know is glitters, as imagine 2-3 very cheap materials cut in different sizes, mixed it with a base, the you will have extremely rough to ultra fine abrasive, a decor product, nail polish, and a reflective safety strips.

A client of Glitterex went to one of their board meetings and asked about it. They were told that the largest buyers of glitter from Glitterex are boat manufacturers. There are two reasons why Glitterex may have dodged the question. The first being that creating the drama brings attention to them. The second and more likely reason is that they don't want people to know they're the cause of microplastics being found in fish after coming off of boats.

[@philxdev]

nah... that is not it... they probably produce glitter for paints and also have some production lines producing glitter or precision cut foils for the Federal Reserve Bank to be used in the production of the US currency... and/or other currencies for that matter... they of course need to be a bit secretive about it and not show anything that could compromise their contracts and security. nobody cares about the glitter in paint but some people deeply care about the security measures of US currency (some good and some bad)...

[@matthewdaub]

I think you might be hitting the nail on the head. Tiktok and the Internet loves to take these stories and act like it's a new secret order that's hiding everything.

The government is likely the biggest customer overall, but probably not of glitter specifically.

My guess is that the military uses a specific type of glitter to camouflage military equipment that’s intended to be discrete.

But you have to look into the wording too, it was always “we don’t want people to know it’s glitter” which is very casual. It’s not that it’s actually confidential information we just don’t want you to know because we feel it would hurt our (the product & company) reputation. That was the implication of the wording at least if we are to go off that. If it was genuinely a security risk of some sort I feel we wouldn’t even be allowed to know somebody was purchasing glitter in that much bulk at all.

[@jayrose6312]

Absolutely all about precision cutting. About 20 years ago, I was the IT manager for the ONLY company that makes “icicles,” those long glittery things that people throw on the branches of a Christmas tree. I was surprised to discover that the reason behind this is because they are the only company with the custom manufacturing machines, and continue to do the maintenance and repairs on them. Basically, just like with glitter it all comes down to the film used. Pretty cool stuff and such a simple thing at the same time.

[@makeart5070]

Based on a number of things mentioned in this video, I'd like to solve the puzzle. I believe the biggest use of "glitter," tiny, precision-cut flakes and rods, is gunpowder (specifically smokeless powder). Read the Wikipedia entry on smokless powder. It is available in several grain styles, including small balls or a variety of extruded strips rods, and cylinders which are cut into short thin flakes or longer cords. The material can also be rolled out as thin films which are then cut into precision flakes. This sounds a lot like the manufacture of glitter to me. Furthermore, it's something that's found in many households (particularly in the US) as well as having military use, and clearly sounds like something "they" wouldn't want people thinking if as glitter. Next, we have the location: both of these glitter factories are in NJ. Mr. Rushman mentioned Picatinney Arsenal, which the US Army manufactured smokless poweder at, as well as the Hercules Powder Company - both nearby. Furthermore, the Wikipedia article mentions the Anglo-American Explosives Company in Oakland, NJ and DuPont's factory at Carneys Point Township, NJ. New Jersey has long been a stronghold of explosives and munitions manufacture. Finally, these companies aren't limited to slicing gunpowder on their own premises; since their IP lies in their precision cutting equipment, and since gunpowder is both A) dangerous, and B) potentially composed of top-secret, proprietary formulations and grain shapes/sizes, I believe these glitter manufacturers operate as vendors running equipment which they own, operate, and maintain within the various gunpowder factories. Vendors providing on-site production is standard in industry. So there it is. Look up images of smokeless powder flakes. It's glitter.

[@ghostkeeper09_82]

Cool research

[@TheOneGuy1111]

Good research, but what bothers me about this theory is that there are actual military applications that we know of and aren't secret, so why would gunpowder be different? Sure it makes sense to keep the specific formulas and designs secret, but why the general fact that they make it?

[@BabaJeez]

I think the theory that it's used in money (anti-counterfeiting) makes a lot more sense. The smokeless powder thing isn't a secret; you read about it on Wikipedia. IF the glitter manufacturers are involved in it, that would be the only "secret" about it, and there would be no point to keeping that secret. In contrast, if these companies are providing materials used in anti-counterfeiting, the government would want to keep that a secret.

[@PetersPan24]

"there's no shipments any more" because the munition company that bought the facility moved the tech and process in house

[@gman1515]

Smokeless powder isn't produced like glitter is. It's more like working with wax or plastic castings. The mixture is gelatinized, purified, and then formed into shape as it hardens. It's often formed into long strands and then cut into flakes or cylinders, sure, but they aren't trying to match the precision of specific wavelengths of light.

The information revealed by this was about the same as what I had assumed. However, I'd assumed each industry had their own glitterizing techniques but to learn it was all from these two companies is amazing. On the secrecy aspect, it's probably just the DoD contactor NDA's requiring silence on the matter. I doubt they demand absolute silence about it but the more people ask, the more companies tend to clam up, even if it's not important. I worked on an employee quality of life improvement project for a nuclear facility in the USA. It was a minor thing that had no real information importance but the contractor required discretion on what we would be working on. The project amounted to what is basically a new metal gate for an entrance, as an example but they still wanted secrecy.

Great video and well presented - held my interest to the end. There are a lot of comments about the sibling who was willing to meet and share information. He revealed some very interesting and key facts about: The history of their industry, the specializations required, specific materials and how they impacted certain usage cases, the multiple applications, past markets, present and future markets, and specific customers and third party industries. His willingness to divulge all of this to two guys showing up who are "interested in the history of Glitter" tells me that he is a huge security liability, and maybe that's why he was fired. The details that he shared gave exact answers (not simply intelligent speculation) to anyone curious about this subject. Clearly he revealed sensitive facts that would be normally covered under an NDA and/or a security restriction for govt. work. Correspondingly, his disclosures would be very bad for a business needing to protect its proprietary and trade secrets, especially if they were doing government work that impacts national security confidentiality (treasury and military were given as examples). This could be why he was bought out and not allowed to continue working with the family.
