The old formula has a yellow label w/an orange skull&cross bones.

The new formula (2nd version) has a brown label.

If anybody is interested I found some at Easy Leaf Products in LA 1 800 569 5323

if you locate some (either old or better generation new ... or a better substitute), I would be very intested. I don't have any stocked back, and was about ready to look for some when I read the original post about problems with the new generation size.

talked to my gold supplier today and he says LeFranc has solved their problem although it will be a while before the new"er" stuff is stocked by most ppl me thinks. I still have a couple of months worth of the old and will try a size from a German manufacturer next.
