Question Aclad II substitute?? (People,sorry,i gotta have some reply quick)

Ehhhh people!!! I REALLY need you guys help. I can't order aclad,because it would take too long to deliver aaaaaaaaall the way to japan,and the price would be awesome. Awesome big. And people even say it rubs off?? What The....?
I was reading some thread then someone replied in the thread that there is a GSi Creos substitute for it,that is very good. If I remember right was RallyRaider that said something about the color to the guy....But in the thread,the guy didin't mentioned the name of it,he had forgotten it.

So,If someone knows the name of the color or something,PLEASE REPLY!

And a little other question: Does anybody knows if HobbyLinc delivers to Japan?

Great thanks everybody!!!!

And sorry for the bad english,and the sudden question!

I wish you guys a Merry Christmas! To AAAAAALLLL of you!!!

I think the Alclad only rubs off if you handle it a lot.I've used it before and it's been fine.

HUGE THANKS MAN!!! THANKS A LOT!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
You saved my modelling life dude! Real thanks.

Ah,and BTW,HobbyLinC I mentioned,is a website with the name like the Hobby LinK Japan. I ordered from HLJ not too long ago.
Huge thanks to you and Steve Noble,thanks for giving the tip! But the price would be absurd to deliver to japan,sooooo...I had to get a substitute!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

Thanks to everyone!!!

I think Rainbow 10 (in Japan) sell Alclad as well.

Not once in this post do you mention even remotely what color you're trying to find. Alclad is just a paint brand, they make many colors/shades.
Next time you post something like this and want to know an equivalent to a color, perhaps post a link to the color you have in mind.

Alclad is marketed in Japan and you can get it for about 1100 yen a bottle.
You just have to find a well-stocked hobby store in your area...okay, Gunma isn't exactly a good place for modeling, but you know Hobby Link Japan is located in Gunma, don't you? And they do ship within japan by Yu-pack. Hobby Linc also ships to Japan, but I think finding a local store that carries Alclad will be better.
