Nitro in the UK

Post by Amber » Fri Nov 10, 2006 5:13 am

Has anyone here managed to get Nitro sprays in the UK? I notice a few people do refins in Nitro in the UK. So where do they get their spray from? I've thought about ordering some from ReRanch when I'm in Florida in December and then shipping them surface mail.

Just wondering if there are any other options.

I have no idea where they get it from exactly...best thing would be to email one of the UK luthiers that offer nitro refins and ask them :)

There was a Scandinavian guy on another forum that had Reranch send stuff to his mate is the US, who then sent it on to him by surface mail (the problem, obviously, isn't shipping paint as such but shipping it by air in low pressure conditions). Took a couple of months, but got there.
