Fuller's Earth is different than bentonite.  Bentonite is a type of clay.
Fuller's earth is also known I think as diatomaceous earth

Sodium Bentonite, yes that's the stuff thank you very much for the reply

Bentonite...  It's a type of clay.  Not sure where to get it.

I sort of made my own stuff using gypsum and magnesium sulphate, both of
which were available in large bags at my local nursery...
