My business is shipping equipment and chemicals for the stone business. They are very strict, and certain countries to not allow import from other countries, and some will not allow export to others. it would probably be easy, but if youre caught, and they want to prosecute, you can wind up in deep trouble on top of paying fines. |

Not even with a MSDS certificate? And as you say almost anything is flammable. Paper is extremely flammable with just a spark for example. I understand (but don't share) the strict laws with shipping flammables by air. Well I guess I might have to forget it then but luckily I can still use Zero Paints

tuningmaniacs - the USPS will not ship anything that requires a MSDS "hazardous" label - that's why they will not ship the paint. For any company it is too litigious if something went wrong as most everything USPS is shipped by air at some point. It could be shipped to you UPS or FedEx "surface" but many times surface takes too long or gets "lost" stolen by someone in the shipping link hoping it's something of value. I've ordered several things from Europe -Germany - France and every time the package has been broken into - sometimes things are missing sometimes it's all there - not sure what is going on but I think someone is opening packages hoping it has a value they can steal - the problem appears to be the international sorting facility in New York. I always ship with tracking and many times the package is located at the sorting facility for 2 or more weeks and when you submit a tracking request for a lost package suddenly the package arrives a few days later all taped up with a letter stating it was received open. Makes you want to say mmmmmmmm??????? - if you really need the paint from a company in the USA - PM me and I will see what I can do about getting it to you. I know I really like the Zero paints and I usually buy 2Kg packages at a time from Steve at Hiroboy to keep the shipping down but still it's 46 British pounds to ship 2Kg to the USA which is about $75 USD - so I will keep biting the bullet and paying the price. For all the USA "Zero" paint fans - Mac at Mac's Modelling (AZRM) is going to try to import them thru Steve at Hiroboy - PM me if you want a copy of the "newsletter" - John |

Re: Question About Zero Paints
I hope Scale Finishes is back up and running again soon. Jameston is a good guy, and his paints are great.

Re: Question About Zero Paints
If you're in the US, I would also suggest checking out Coast Airbrush. Basically a custom automotive paint store that caters to smaller needs. The House of Kolor line is very nice with all the effects you can create. The downside is that they don't sell paint color-matched to racecars.
However, when you see what you can do with HOK paint, you might just put aside the racecars for a bit and say, "let's see what custom paint job I can do with this car." |
