You can get the Ospho or Naval Jelly from ACE or other hardware stores.
As for the manganese dioxide, you can usually find this stuff in pottery stores. Or you can take apart some dry cell batteries. The manganese dioxide is the black stuff inside the battery.

I've done it and it works. If you live way out in the middle of nowhere "Alpine Tx" some times you have to do what you have to do.
The nearest mall, Home Depot, etc .. is 167 miles,

His office is about 1/2 mile block from the house.

My son had his XD done by Tripp it came out real nice. He's built a few race guns for a friend that shoots plates with us, I've even shot them once or twice.

My son and Tripp's son were college roomates, he got to go on a tour of the place.
