Does anyone know an Australian maker of 2 part wood bleach? It seems to be readily available in the U.S., but I can't turn up an Australian supplier.
Thanks for any info

Well if they do they are keeping quiet about it. A search for bleach brings up nothing.

Sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide. Sodium hydroxide is sold as lye and hydrogen peroxide is used to bleach hair at ~10% concentration or so. Check your local professional beauty supply. Be extremely careful - this stuff can blind.

We know it as caustic soda.

The Wood Works product is Ammonia solution and Hydrogen Peroxide.

The Wood Works order fell through because they only ship to Sydney, by same-day courier. But I found a chemical company in Canberra that made some for me.
