Hi David

The stuff I have is like a really fine dark grey powder.  Mail ordered 
from the US.  Funny story about it too.. The Norwegian Toll authorities 
obviously thought this was a suspicious type package when it came in... 
so they busted it open to search before letting it go through the 
domestic mail delivery.  One of the containers was half empty and there 
was powder everywhere in the box... :)  Usually they charge a hefty 
import toll for things from the states... on top of the usual VAT.  They 
musta been a bit embarrassed as I got it delivered to my door free of 
all the usual charges.

I'll see if I can find an address on this stuff.  Its actually perfect 
for the job of putting a satin finish on keytops.

Cheers
RicB

Years ago when I refinished pianos, we used rotten stone to break up the 
old finish before applying stripper...very rough stuff...don't know why 
the difference between the two...
