DeborahM Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Hi folks, does anybody have any idea where I can find calcium carbonate? I'm not looking for pills, but the actual powder, for a paint recipe. Thanks for any leads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanMexicali Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 "carbonato de calcio" is available in powder form at "farmacias". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I believe this is "Jal" in Spanish, not "Cal". Are you making whitewash? I have a lot of recipes and alkali resistant, UV stable pigments. I have never made casein, or "milk" paints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've visited seven pharmacies Lakeside, and not one of them carried it. They carry the pills for medical use, that's not what I'm looking for.

I use plaster of paris too, but prefer the calcium carbonate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdmowers Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I believe I bought it in a ferreteria, use it for paper-making. But it mght have been Comex in Ajijic near Oxxo. Sorry for the lack of clarity. If it was good for memory enhancement, I`d mix up some right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
