Can you buy Red Oxide? I thought it was out due to lead content.


You can buy lots of primer paints that call themselves Red Oxide but
they will not contain much if any lead.
It is still possible to purchase the old style Red Lead from very
specialised suppliers such as one that supplies materials for people
restoring old boats.
Currently a 2.5litre tin costs £120.

I expect one could diy it for much less.
