Howdy Tag,

I remember hearing that you folks in the UK have a hard time getting testors paints/products, at the time that I heard this (in one of my threads here about making your own decals), I thought that it was just the aerosol products you couldnt get.
However, since you apparently cannot buy testors products just anywhere in the UK, I do have an option for you.

www.squadron.com is a mail order company that I use from time to time here in the USA. They boast over $2million worth of modelling products in stock at all times. They do ship oversea to the UK for a nominal fee. Aerosol cans may be a problem as it is illegal to ship them by air, however, the individual bottles of paint should be no trouble.
I went to their site and did a search for testors paints and came up with this link: http://www.squadron.com/SearchResults.asp?offset=0 It lists 392 results (individual paint products) that they carry by Testors.
You can order online, by phone or by snail mail, they accept credit cards, checks or money orders.
Anyway, I thought that since you cant seem to locate them over there, you might consider "importing" them yourself. Have a look around their site, check out their models and other supplies. You may find that you have to be somewhat "vague" at times with their search function to get you where you want to be (less info is sometimes more), but I think you can find whatever you are looking for there.

Hope this helps,

Greg

Hi Tony,

Have found one site who state that they stock a whole range of Testors Paints - They are based in the UK as well:

http://www.abcmodelsport.net/

If no Joy with them, try the option mentioned by Greg above, with the current exchange rates you should get an awful lot of paints for your money.

Regards......Mark.
