Hey Marcingo, I just picked some up at the Rock Hound shop in Victoria ,so you should be able to get it at place that sells tumbling supplies .
They will sell small 2ounce packs for $ 1.55 or pretty nearly any amount you want.
I am going to try it for removing hardwater marks from a tank ,nothingelse seems to move it . Sounds like a good tip.
Thanks Kronk

Unforetunately Im in edmonton (quite a drive) what kind of store is this? Might give me an idea of where to look locally.

Marcingo, You know the stores that specialize in all different types of semi-precious stones that can be polished to a fine gloss ? They also sell little machines that you can put unpolished stones in with an abrasive powder that rotates and tumbles the stones together making them smooth. It is called lapidary .
Maybe try these places.
