    I might be missing something but apparently you have to buy £20 of goods, if I just try to buy one bar it says the checkout is below my limit or something.

    Yes it is a complication, but if you setting up there are more things to be interested in and all these small bits add up. Otherwise if you are not lucky let me know. I will not be doing my order soon as i am sorting my job at present but then I could put it together with mine.

    I wonder if it's any good for razors.

    EDIT:> I'll soon find out, I ordered some.
    WOW, I think they sent me the wrong stuff. This isn't CrO, it's magic green fairy dust! I just shaved off it and the blade glided as if the hairs weren't there! This is unlike any straight shave I've had before. I got a bit carried away and gave myself 2 tiny weepers so I took that as a sign to stop after 2 passes - and the final result was great.

    I used it on a block of balsa, painted on using mineral (baby) oil and spread evenly using paper kitchen towel.

    I had honed and used diamond paste on the razor a few days ago. Today I did 12 passes on the CrO (6 straight, 6 X pattern.)

    This was so much better than the diamond paste (alone). Much, much smoother, and I'm certain it's sharper too.

    I have it on good authority from a friend of the late Walt Disney that you have to snort fairy dust in order to get the full effect.

    Yes I have that stuff too. It is clear Chromoxide. I did write them and reason how they have it is that this is left from a big job they were doing repacking it for use in poterry enameling. Any contamination and it would give different colour after baking the enamel.

    I guess there is a difference between apply on a leather and in a lather.
