    Default Greaseless compound

    Just wondering if anyone knew where to get 400 and 600 greaseless in aus. Caswell dont list on the website and when I phoned I was offered a stainless bar instead. Caswell in America have a good kit but their website doesn't do postage to Australia. Anyway if you can help out that would be appreciated.

    Cheers Ed

    Another coincidence !!....I'm about to buy 400 and 600 from Caswell USA.
    They do say on their website to email them first if you're OS.
    I'm ordering on Monday 5th, so will let you know.

    Some of the gun supply houses might sell it or even some of the auto shops. US prices are too high now.

    I knew it! I was looking closely at mine in the basement and swore I saw tiny teeth marks... wonder if the mice have sharper or duller teeth now?!

    On ordering out of the US, my buddy ordered it from a metal working website. I'll ask him which one. He is in Johannesburg.

    Thanks bongo. I went to order and the site didn't post to aus and didn't see the message to email. Dion the Polish up site only went to 240 thats why I was looking at Caswell. Did you need to contact them direct or order online. Main thing will be to get the 600 as well so Caswell might be a better option.

    It was in the order options mate, if not shown they may have dropped them from their stock options
