Yellow Ochre and oxide-powders
Hi Everyone
Does anyone have some Yellow ochre powder left over from some long ago paint mixing or staining job that is no longer needed by you?
I am after the natural rock that is ground up fine for use as pigment to mix your own stains or paint. I would consider any from light yellow ochre, red ochre or red iron oxide, terra cotta colour to warm brown.
Please offer any little amount you may have, much appreciated.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
