White lead

Thanks. Tim.

I know that white lead is being sold under the name of "Flake White", but I don't use it anymore because of the fear of lead poisening.

By the same token, I no longer use the original formulation of "Naple's Yellow", which is also lead based and head and shoulders above the imitations available.

On the other hand, I've yet to abandon my cadmiums even though I hear the new alternatives may be better. It's just not easy to adjust!
