If you were to remove the covering on a couple feet of "det cord" exposing the PETN, it could be dissolved in acetone. After adding a teaspoon or so of mineral oil (needed to keep the crystals tiny when the solvent evaporates) you could place sheets of newspaper in the liquid mixture, soaking them throughly. Carefully remove and dry the sheets and refold the paper. A daily like the New York Times would hold enough PETN to equal 3 sticks of dynamite. The detonator remains problematical.
The chemical sniffers will find the paper explosive w/ no problem.
