Thread: Veritas crox crayon?

Description say it is a mix of cromium and aluminium ox and is .5 micron. Has anyone used this?

Do some searches and there will be plenty if info. From memory it isn't pure and not recommended. Srd , Kremer Pigments, hand america are all good crox sources. Sometimes you can find the puma one on ebay and uk merchant sells the powder although it will just be a small bag of the Kremer stuff. The Kremer stuff is cheap pure and you will get heaps of it if you deal with them directly

Don't know anything about the brand you asked about, but, being a better safe than sorry guy, the SRD stick or spray will last a LONG time...and you know what it is and where they "live" so to speak. That's what I have and that's what I'd go with if I were you.

Good for tools and polishing… not good for razors, Will leave a chippy and uncomfortable edge .

You want 100 percent pure or as close as you can get, Hand America, SRP, or Kremer Pigments.

Not a big deal if you use it, you will just have to re hone. As said there are lots of threads on Hardware/Woodworking store Chrome Oxide.

Thanks guys. I'm going to order some powder from Srd.
