I've heard that they are going to discontinue its manufacture, which I hope is false. Dale, I assume that somewhere between the Great White North and my own slice of heaven here in Iowa my Albatros struts are wending their way.

Thanks Ken. I gave it a whirl and this, along with mixing in about 20% future as suggested by John, seems to help although at least 3 coats of the medium blue I am using were required to cover the light grey plastic satisfactorily. These dry very quickly however and are fluid enough that the brush strokes dissolve immediately. Air bubbles also dissolve without a trace, though dust is, I am now sure, a Communist plot! My local Lewiscraft is selling Ceramcoat $1.79 Cdn/2oz. bottle and the house brand is .99 cents a 2 oz. bottle. Today I found a dollar store that's selling 1/3oz bottles of Polly S 6 for a $1.00. They're a little on the old side but nothing a vigorous shaking can't remedy. I tried several out and they seem fine.

Yes it would. The poster I saw last week at Aviation World stated the show would be on September 10th. This is an annual Vintage Aircraft Fly-In hosted by the Brampton Flying Club and featuring the aircraft of the Great War Flying Museum. If you require directions I can provide them off list. I can make some inquiries tomorrow just to confirm times, etc... and get back to you.
