Hey fellows,
Any one where can I buy Cobra Colours in Toronto, or any online store? Or can you help me to ship it to my home? Thanks.

Not legally no. At least airmail, perhaps surface could be an option?

Hey Phil, I have no problem with surface mail. Could you help me to ship the paint to my hands?

Sorry no, because I'm in Australia and in the same boat!

Maybe you should talk to Leon about it directly? I think the problem is US export restrictions on solvents, but don't know the details. At any rate an automotive lacquer store should be able to help you out, if you know the make and name of colour you want. Price of the paint will be higher but should be offset somewhat by the lack of postage. The AFMOTY winning green Lamborghini in my sig was painted with PPG automotive paint, great stuff.

Thanks a lot, Phil. May be I need to check with my local auto. paint store. Your Lambo is very useful as I am starting on my 40th Ann. Murcielargo.

Cool.

In that case the colour you'll need is Lamborghini Verde Artemis, code 0083. Comes in two coats, first a tourquoise base coat and a second of teal green pearl. The paint is flat so it will require a clearcoat to give a gloss finish.

I know Standox have it on their system (you can even download the mixing ratios from their website) don't know about other brands like PPG, Glassruit, etc.

I had Leon ship it to my father-in-law and when he came accross the border he dropped it in the mail for me. If you have an American friend or family member in the US you are all set, as long as they drive your paint across the border and send it to you. The laws prohibit Leon from shipping paint by mail (air, surface or otherwise) I think this is your only viable choice.

Thanks Mike.

It really gives me a headache...since my only relatives live in new Hemisphere..too far from my home.

Hi,

I can help, PM me your phone number. I live in Niagara and work in Mississauga. My sister lives in Lewiston NY just across the river from NOTL and I have all my US purchases shipped there and just pick them up from her.
