I have seen a few videos on U-Tube where the artist finished their spray-painting by lighting another can of something and setting the painting "on fire", quickly blowing it out. I would like to know why they do this and what substance they used for the "torch".

the substane they're using is just spray paint. its extremley flamable so you just light it up when spraying and it makes a mini flamethrower

Actually no it cant, there is no oxygen in the can, so the flame wont go in the nozzle at all, so it cant explode from doing it just a little bit to dry (or "Cure") The paintings.

But if you keep doing it (A lot in one time) It can heat up the can, and it might explode, but i don't think you would be able to keep your hand on it also because the nozzle will melt.

i dont think anyone answered you so... The flame is to darken the painting and dry it faster. Also it looks amazing for the show part. :) also you should be careful when lighting up. It will take a while for the can to blow but it does get hot and fast, so be careful and please dont point it at anyone lol and keep in mind if there is wind. LOL Ive had some problems LOL
