Wiley Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Where do you guys get finely powdered gilsonite for use in ground-based, cremora-style fireballs? So far, this is the only reasonable(ish) source I've found: http://smokechemicals.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=86 I was kind of hoping, considering the quantity that these devices use, that there'd be a source of powdered gilsonite in 50 pound bags or something similar.

Wiley Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I've heard that gilsonite is sometimes used as a pavement sealant. Would it be possible to obtain the stuff from a company that uses it for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumbles Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Anything for a pavement sealing type application likely wont be powdered, like how we want it. The guy who owns/runs smokechemical.com often does group buys of bulk chemicals on passfire. He's offered up bulk gilsonite several times at very good prices, probably $1-2/lb at a certain quantity. I'm sure if you contacted him, he could give you a deal on a full bag. It's often the repackaging into small quantities that drives the price up. The stock he has listed is probably just want he has broken down into 1lb bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
