I've read so many good reports here about EM6000 lacquer, but when I try and find a UK supplier I seem to hit a brick wall anyone here able to help?

Thanks

Hello John
I too have trawled the internet looking for a supplier in the UK but have found nothing.
After reading postings on the forum at the Target Coatings site it seams that Colortone waterbased lacquer as supplied by Stewmac is the same .
I did find a site in Canada that would send EM6000 to Uk but the shipping charges were high to say the least.
After usiing Nitro for the last 25 years I am thinking of giving waterbased a try.

Good luck
