I have a strange question. Ive been looking at Hammerite paint and picking a color. Come to find out they have discontinued Hammerite in the USA / Canada. They still sell all across Europe and most other countries except the US and Canada. I don't know, that's why I'm asking, is it possible for someone to buy a gallon and send it to me? Ive seen and used it before and its just what I'm looking for. I dont know any pricing / shipping (if possible) , Etc. I have to ask questions and learn. I need a gallon. https://www.hammerite.com

(No need to post 'from the US guys' that there are other paints at HomeDepot, Etc...... LOL...... Im "aware") Ha-Ha



UPDATE: I found some Mid - Green in the USA. If anyone is interested in the paint and color they have 25 gallons left. I found this at "The Paint Store.com" Anyhow, thank you for your help. If anyone has a project coming up, this paint is great !

Since you helped me with my questions recently I am more than willing to help you.
The product is available in The Netherlands. And I like it very much! So I’ve been looking to ship, but unfortunately we are not allowed to ship paint products (inter)nationally.

I’m sorry my friend.

Stefan.

I've seen it here at 1 of our DIY chains, cant remember quantities or if you can post it, wondering if its classed as a DG (dangerous goods) if I were to send overseas?

Sherwin Williams makes auto paints for body shops. They will match and then make it probably faster & a lot less $$$ than getting it shipped international. Try calling your local store.

I’ve worked in a body shop/industrial paint company for 10years. I suggest to use a 2 component epoxy based paint (brush or spray paintable). Cheap and guaranteed same or better quality! I’ve used it for the restauration of my tractor, steel gates etc.

Thank you... Ive called three of there "pro" shops and spoke with the managers. They know of what I want and what im looking for. They have 'normal' epoxy two part paint but does not have the Hammer finish and is not really "industrial" grade like the Hammerite. Ive used the Hammerite and I cant recall anything else being so chip proof around metal, Etc. I know of and aware of very good "industrial" paint that needs to be sprayed... Two things- I want to bush it on,..... and I want a 'cool' color. The normal industrial paints a very boring and bland....

This is a one time "one-N-done" project. If I can get the paint in the US I would really rather use it. The results are awesome, color(s) are good, and the look im after is super cool.

Anyhow, Sherwin Williams does not have anything like Hammerite (is what three 'pro-shop managers) available with color / texture / applying application......

I can buy it but shipping is an issue. It is a class 3 dangerous good but can be shipped by air if packed correctly (check IATA). Would need to be less than 30lts and need to find someone prepared to pack and transport. They are available but may not be worth the cost. Cheers
