Got this in my email. Says it'll cover about 10-12 sq ft of surface. Enough for a couple cabs.

Yep, I have it too. Perfect for touchups, and is actually enough to cover a small cab.

Nice, didn't realize you were carrying it, too. Will the little roller it comes with hold up to a couple washings?

It should. Same roller as the bigger ones, just be nice to the plastic handle.

How the heck did you get the Duratex to Kiwi land? Last time I remember this being discussed, all freight companies regarded it a hazardous substance and refused to take it abroad.

No longer. Acry-Tech got it through all the stuff USPS requires.

Harley got his 5 gallons with a container shipment with his company. Took 2 months though.

Wait so does that mean we can have it air freighted to NZ now?

Yes. With freight it will run around $100 U.S.

A one US gal ( 3.8l ) pail will cost you just on $NZ 210 landed by the time you pay GST etc at today's exchange rates.

Good gravy, no suitable alternatives down there in upside-down land? Maybe Acry-Tech wants to open a Kiwi factory ;)

With only 4.5 million population, I doubt it. Oz would be their better target in reality.

Maybe it's cheaper to start it on NZ, kind of like how the US has tons of factories in Mexico.

It could be your new tourism slogan:

New Zealand: Australia's Mexico.

It would be nice if we could get color samples for $20. But, alas, the deal is only for black.
