Having a hard time sourcing out 2% Lanthanated here in the Greater Vancouver area in Canada. No one seems to carry it that I can find. Looks like I should order it online so wondering if any Canadian suppliers out there that anyone knows of that ships to Canada and has the 2% lanthanated tungsten. ....wayne

Same prob here in the U.S. Jody posted the info on using the 2% so I went looking and the best I came up with is 1.5%. I'm still hunting and will let you know if I find anything.

Bizzare, I hit it first shot... Must have been a bad search day the first time. Arc-Zone has it and it looks like they ship worldwide.
