2K clear supplier in Canada?

To my fellow modelling companions in Canada, which brand of 2K clear do you use and where do you buy it?

I am finishing my Zero Paint stock from my time in France and I cannot reorder as shipping costs from UK to Canada are 160 CAD.

I just ordered some Gravity Color 2K clear from the US but it remains expensive as they only sell it in small batch.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Go to a local automotive paint shop and buy a can of 2K varnish for real vehicles. I use Sherwin-Williams 8500 2K Varnish.

Any automotive supplier will be able to sell this to you.
I use DuPont Chromaclear with fast activator.

Thanks for the tip!

For some reason I thought automotive clear might be too thick for the airbrush. I will give it a try.

While you're at it look for the reducer for 2K clearcoat also. In my case, not using reducer the clearcoat came down quite thick and orange peely.
