It hardly ever matters much. Most people
use RIO (red iron oxide).

It most probably refers to red iron oxide, but be careful what you
actually buy. Get an analysis from your supplier if you can as the
different iron oxides can vary a lot. You can see some of my
experiences with black iron oxide on my web site under 'Raw Materials -
do you Know What You are Buying?'

It all hinges on the degree of purity of both.
If you know where each came from, you should be able to get a "purity
percentage" from them.
Because there are so many different types and grades, I only use a Syntheti=
c
Iron Oxide from one source, that way I can be sure of consistancy.

How do you know, or where in the US can you obtain Synthetic
Iron Oxide? One batch of red iron oxide I ordered, I think it was =3D
scraped off the underside of a truck, the other did not fire nearly as =3D
dark as what I had before. =3D20
Thanks,
Jo
