    West System dealers carry copper powder. (actually copper (I) oxide).

    There is also a product called "coppercoat" which I believe is based in the UK.

    Epifanes = West System in Holland.

    There are also companies specialised in metal flakes, powders and oxides, but they usually sell per 100 kg.

    Hello Francisco

    You can find this product at Sopromar, Lagos, Portugal:

    http://www.eco-sea.com/page.php?id=18

    Talk with Hugo 351 963488510, he can send you the stuff, and can also provide you with sound information about it.

    (Sopromar is probably the biggest yacht repair shipyard in Portugal, and Hugo is one of the owners, a nice guy too.)
