Where To Buy Lye In Ontario Canada
by: Shay

David...I'm from Tillsonburg, Ontario, Canada and I buy my Sodium Hydroxide (Lye) from our local Home Hardware or Home Building Center. Costs $22.00 for a 3 Kg size and it lasts a good long time. Hope this helps.

Regards to Home Hardware Stores
by: Anonymous

David...yes I just bought some about a month ago. You could also purchase some from Sapphire Blue it's in Courtland which is about 3 minutes from Tillsonburg. Sapphire Blue is a soap supply shop and I buy alot of my soapmaking products there. The prices are very reasonable plus I don't have to pay shipping costs so saves me lots of money I just have to go pick my order up. The link to them is:

I've also googled Home Hardware Stores there in Brantford and the information for each is below you could call them and ask if any of them have Sodium Hydroxide (Lye). That way saves you from driving all around looking for it. Some are not in Brantford but may be near there.

Lye Crystals
by: Shay

Yes that is the one I've been using for the past 6 months since I've started making soap and who ever told you that obviously is NOT a soap maker or soap expert. It is 100% Lye Crystals which mean 100% Lye which is 100% Sodium Hydroxide. I have no idea why they would tell you not to use it but I have been and alot of other soapmakers do as well. Go ahead and buy it and try it out you'll see it makes perfect soap. My family and my friends use my soap and I even sell my soap and all I get is lots of compliments so obviously the Lye Crystals work great in soap! So let me know how your soapmaking goes and if you buy some of the crystals.
