Thats damn irritating as I was going to use this stuff. I see that the netherlands site is only showing black top coat like the uk, and US ebay is only showing the Diamond clear coat.

Did they give you a reason? It really narks me when a product is marketed and rated then you cant get hold of the stuff..

Bud i have spent all day on this,the company i was using has got an order coming in but they have not ordered any white,hence the wait.Really not sure what to do now as i dont want to pull things apart twice.Have started the lower chassis but then thought work down not up hence diff area first,this is a right bummer.Bud i will keep searching and if i find anything i will let yer know

Would the US arm ship directly or is the shipping cost prohibitive. Its annoying as you read a ton of stuff go through the decision process and expect to just be able to buy it!

I know you said don't mention it, but POR15 is a really good product IF you use it properly.
ie Get rid of old paint and rust, use Marine clean to move all traces of grease. Then use Metal Prep to etch the metal, and finally coat in POR15. Do it properly and you need an angle grinder to get rid of it.

Still thinking of this stuff bud,no real rush as ive got to strip diff etc yet,but would like to start getting some protection on the bits i have rubbed down so far.
