Guest cookoff013 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 381 looks identical to clays, allaint steel, and about 5 other disc powders, flat black disc. there is no way of identifying the powders. they could even be a industrial type un available to homeloaders. no guessing please.
