Where are you folks buying Alumilite?

Looks like it's a Hazmat item, so it appears to be super expensive to ship.
I'd like to buy a gallon or two.
Hobby Lobby only sells 16oz or so it appears.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Amazon carries 32 oz size...cheapest still going for gallon thru the mfr.

I'm not positive, but I think what I need is the Alumilite "Water Clear" formula, for casting worthless wood blanks.
From Alumilite's website, they sell it by the pound??!!
1, 2, and 16 pounds. Anyone know how that equates to gallons or ounces?

Dirk, did you ask anyone at Hobby Lobby, if it was possible to bring in a gallon of it for you? I know some of the stores in my area only have the smaller size of certain items available to purchase, but, if you ask they will bring in larger sized containers.

Hello Dirk. Any chance you could expand on this product and how you use it? I googled the product and it looks very interesting and just wondering how it applies to turning. I have a few ideas but would really like to hear from a user. Thanks in advance.

to find the lbs/gal look on the MSDS for the product for specific gravity. take that number and multiply it by 8,32 (the weight of a gallon of water) and you have the lbs/gal of the product.
