Default Alodine POWDER?

Anyone know of a source? Why do we have to pay the shipping for a
bunch of water for AS&S?


Because without the water it becomes a much greater hazmat shipping
expense (oxidant?). The only out that I see is if a local plating or
coating shop will sell you 1/2 pound in a ziploc bag. As manufactured,
it's ordinarily only available in packages of some pounds. It only
takes an ounce or two to make a gallon of solution. Cautions: Nitrile
gloves (not latex), long sleeves, don't breathe the dust & thoroughly
flush any spilled powder from clothing, etc.
