Oops, this is why I need a bigger boss for the power valve slot.

I believe this crowd, the Fibreglass shop, was the supplier of Vinamold in NZ. Tried to get some through them and got this reply:


Might get some online from overseas if they still can supply it. Thought I'd give you lads the heads up

I think that's where I got mine. Can't read that attachment but assume it says make sure Dave doesn't give any more away.

Do you mean they might? They said last time I bought some (around late 2015) that they were going to change to a better one from Germany, but looks like that hasn't materialized as yet!

Huh! Do what? Or where you suggesting me as a possible source/shipper of Vinamold. I'm willing to look into it, but posted some parcels to other english addresses, today, and got a third degree about what was in them...

Yeah I think that's what Husa was suggested. I'd be very grateful!

I remember Frits mentioning it's the best he had used, and also having seen it used here, which is why I'm specifically after Vinamold. There are alternatives however.
Here's a product called Composimold being used by a Thomas H who appears to cruise this forum, if not only the ESE thread. It's far more expensive though at $66NZD + $30 shipping for 20oz of the stuff -_-

He hehhehehehe
Just a address to onship from really, For companies that don't do international shipping.
JasonU is the American agent, you could be the english version.
Think of it as an exciting opportunity to enter the world of international freight forwarding.

Haven't you guys heard of YouShop?

Absolutely fine by me. Paypal should make that sort of thing much easier, I guess.
I've just had the Mike Sinclair book shipped to me from NZ, so I should return the favour.
Unfortunately, the company I am dealing with for my composite stuff don't do Vinamold, so no trade discount, but I'm interested to try it, myself, as I've only used bath sealant and "mould rubber" from Vosschemie in Belgium (although they are a german company, I think).

This stuff? http://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/shesto-c...ml/611780-1000
I'm finding Vinamold at less than £10 a kilo/litre in England so nearly 4 times more expensive!

is where I bought my Vinamold from here in the USA. I don't see any mention on their website of them shipping outside the country.

I use a Pyrex measuring cup in a small microwave oven to melt it. I do it outside as it gets stinky, and it is best to do short bursts of power and once it starts to melt stir it between power cycles to even it out.
