Thank you but this powder was definitely not for melting or spraying. The owner( died 1939 before WW2) was a master in glazing, sign writing and employed 50 staff. I still have some of his coloured bronzes as well as some gold leaf left.
Oddly, he was a sort of relative to the real Alice in Wonderland and John Dobson, the Newcastle architect.
Dobson designed Newcastle Central Railway Station as well.
But thanks
Norm
