Eezox - any local sources? (Houston)

Well, after extensive searching on corrosion protection, I am interested in trying some Eezox. Anyone know of of a local source in the greater Houston area?

I wanted to buy the quart size ($40.60), but was trying to find an local alternative instead of spending an additional $17.05 on shipping.

My primary interest is gun care, but I'd also like to wipe down all my hand tools, chisels, saws, etc. Houston humidity being what it is . . .

The Eezox website listed a half dozen Texas dealers, including the below listing for Houston. However, an email to him bounced as a bad email address.

Great Guns & Sporting Goods, Mark Robinson, Houston, TX

Eezox is the best. Pawpaw introduced me to it and I've used it ever since. I find it easiest to just order from http://www.eezox.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

Also
test three popular lubes -- the ever popular WD-40, my favorite Breakfree, and Rynkster's dealer's favorite silicon.

Don't know any sources, but had to add: For many years in the telephone business, and I retired 17 years ago, we used a product called No-Ox on a variety of connectors that needed to have corrosion protection and still be electrically conductive. I can personally testify to its corrosion protection abilities, as I have gone back to sites where I had made ground connections that were continuously exposed to the elements, years later, and found no corrosion on the No-Ox protected surfaces. There was even a copper ground bus bar that I had mounted several ground wires to, and on which I had (inadvertently) left a thumb print of No-Ox and the thumb print was still preserved well enough that it would have made the folks on CSI happy.

I still have some in my workbench somewhere, I think, which I have been using for ham radio stuff and never thought of using on my guns. I may be tempted to try some. It sounds remarkably similar to Eezox.

No-Ox is still in widespread use in the Telecom industry. I have a can of it around here, somewhere.

No-Ox is a grease that keeps oxygen away from the metal surface.

Eezox is a very thin oil-like liquid. It does a good job of cleaning, lubricating, and protecting. It is also heavier than water, so moisture cannot get under it to reach the metal surface. Oil is lighter than water.

I first heard about it on Seecamp's guns

(Eezox is an ideal lubricant for this purpose since its effects are long lasting and it does not tend to pick up grit.)
(Here at the shop, we use Eezox Premium Gun Care.)

Well, I spoke with Mark Robinson of Great Guns & Sporting Goods, and I am going to get some from him in a couple of weeks at his next gunshow.

BTW his updated email address is greatgunstx AT gmail DOT com.

I ordered from the website a few months back. It arrived on my doorstep in 3 days. Best gun protection I have ever used.
