Okay, really... no offence, but in asking about "dulling down the mixture", you've demonstrated how little you know about this subject. And in such a potentially dangerous situation as this, that is a very bad thing.
As I've said before, there is a difference between what people
want to know, and what people
need to know.
For a subject like this, there's a lot you need to know in order to do it safely (and even then, safe is a relative term).
If I may, I'd like to talk about the Dunning-Kruger effect. (Cue people who've heard me ramble on about it before groaning.)
Justin Kruger and David Dunning wrote a paper a few years back called "Unskilled and Unaware of it". Summarized, it talks about how someone who is incompetent* on a subject will:
a) make poor choices
b) and more importantly, fail to realise they're making poor choices.
*That's the wording used in the actual Dunning-Kruger paper, not me directing an insult at you.
It's worth watching
this video on the subject of Dunning-Kruger - it's more angled at the idea of debate than this particular subject, but the basic principles still apply. (In fact, it's worth anyone watching it. Simply recognising the existence of said phenomenon means you're far less likely to fall foul of it!)
Anyway, what that means, in this case, is that you don't know enough about the subject to realise how much you don't know. And that means you don't know what questions you need to be asking* (as opposed to the ones you want to ask). And in a word, that's dangerous.
*I don't know either. I don't know what you don't know.
In your case, you need to start off rather more basic, I think.
