I wouldnt advise ringing on mass JFC Munro and asking for Pot Nit. He is a large scale supplier and will be regulated at to who he sells to. Im not suggesting he wont sell it to you but be aware that 25kg or more of oxidiser is a lot to explain for if asked to do so.

Marble, you beat me, just!

I pay NZD$26, ten pounds, per 25kg bag.


It is so cheap I use it for weight on dummy shells.
