    I'm afraid to post pictures, last time it kicked off the site for a week..I need a new router..Soon
    Here is what I have on hand right now!

    1) Corvel (TM) Black metallic- It is not high gloss but has some gloss to it. Very dry no clumps..Good stuff

    2) Interpon Silver- looks like Aluminum or Stainless Semi Gloss, Very cool on bullets. Dry no clumps.

    I'm looking for ONE individual to test this stuff..I will send a couple pounds to you FREE as long as you can test it ASAP and get back to us and post results right here for all to see. Who can do this? 1 st person to post here gets the job

    From what I can see this is good quality coating.. I can get WHITE, BLACK, SILVER and maybe more.

    No price yet figured, but will be very reasonable.

    I think it is going to be range of $5/lb. I'm waiting on the final word to purchase this bunch..Once it passes the muster with you fellows and I get the transaction complete I can start shipping.

    $5/lb you say is too cheap, there must be something wrong with it, NOPE I just am buying it real cheap and have a bunch to move.

    Looking ahead a couple of questions:

    1. assume shipping on top of price per lb

    2. how many lbs in SFRB?

    thanks

    I would be interested also in a SFRB, oe 3-4lbs. If you could provide specifics. Your choice.

    Thanks,

    Yes shipping would be on top of the $5/lb.

    Looks like 2-3 lbs could be shipped in a Legal envelope ($6.45)..I'll check to see what will fit in a Med Flat rate box, once I get the right bags.

    Chris, yours will be shipped tomorrow 3 day priority. Maybe Weds night/ Thursday we will have some results from Chris/fishingsetx

    Tracking info shows powder is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I already had plans to take off work friday, so as long as USPS does their part, I should have some results Friday evening or saturday evening at the latest. I will give dry tumbling a shot, but I havent been able to find my container of airsoft bbs so it may not be a great test. Im still looking though. I will be shooting several different things with the ESPC.

    Update:

    The powder works great for ESPC! I would even say it is on par if not better than some of the premium powders I've paid $30+ per pound for. I didnt have time to try any cast bullets tonight, but did have time to throw a couple cups into my rotation. It goes on smooth and creates a great stream out of the gun! This isnt your average cheap powder and sure isnt seconds or reclaim. This is premium stuff.



    First pic is the darker color. This isn't black but more like a dark metallic grey.





    Here is the second color (silver). It Is a light silver metallic that comes out almost a dark pearl white.





    One thing to mention is this powder is heavy (most metallics are). There isnt much dust produced by shaking it. Not sure how this will effect dry tumbling bullets, but even being heavy, it shoots better than any other heavy metallic powder I have (and I have about a dozen ranging from $15-40 a lb!)

    I decided to go ahead and shoot a clear coat on each cup. I clear coat all the cups I do, so I wanted to see the final product! Both colors are awesome! I took a pic in incandecent and florecent light so that you can compare the colors to get a better idea of what they look like.

    dark grey





    Light silver





    I would have zero problem ordering this powder for ESPC and will be placing an order as soon as you are set up. I am going to try and do some bullets tomorrow, and if I can find my dry tumble stuff, Ill be giving that a shot if I have time.
