I know they sell Peldow, had to deliver alot of it this time of year. Will check on the other. If they don't have Dow flake what else will work? Is it mag chloride, or Calc chloride? I am to new to try this stuff yet.

If you insist in buying some contact kimha. He lives pretty close to you(about 10 minutes) and I'm sure he can sell a good 2 or 3 25lb bags of Down for like $25?
