furnacecote and olsen kiln evolution

I have two queries:
1. Does anyone know of a supplier in France (preferably) or in the UK. of
Furnacecote. Is it true that this substance will protect HTIs from the
ravages of salt and soda attack?
2. I'm trying to get a source for some detailed plans of a kiln built by Ray
Finch which is an adaption of the olsen type kiln, two fireboxes under the
chamber, but with a deep channel in the middle and a decompression chamber
before the chimmney. Can anyone help?
