Gastines Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 As it's sold in virtually every Garden/Farm supplier and Supermarket in France ,there might not be a need?Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Guerriere Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 it's usually in big green pots at the end of the aisle.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Being as Sodium Chloride is salt I can't imagine why customs and ex(er)cise or anyone else would be the slightest bit interested in it. Besides, unless you're planning on taking a pallet load, who's going to know and what's the very worst that could happen anyway, confiscation, that's it.It's not as though it's semtex !

La Guerriere Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Yes, it's sodium chlorate you're thinking about (chlorate de soude) and yes it does come in green pots at the end of the aisle and yes people did use to make bombs out of it. It is now sold with flame retardant in it which makes it less interesting from a arsonist point of view. It also makes it less effective. We find you have to use two or three times as much of the new mix compared to the old pure form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
