Yep. Havent found one that ships internationally. Por-15 will shop but i gather its not the top choice for sealant. Got multiple pinholes to deal with on my 550 tank

It maybe a Hazmat issue with everyone. It's not that the supplier do not want to ship, it's the shipping companies who won't. I've not been able to bring Hazmat items into Canada  ( ie paint) via an out of country source and only because of the shipping companies hazmat polices. 

Here's what Caswel state under their policies.
"Hazardous Goods: Some of our products are classified as hazardous goods by the US DOT, Transport Canada & IATA. These products will incur an additional charge when shipped by ground, and cannot be shipped by air or internationally"

POR-15 and RedKote both are good products. It's Kreem that's a no-no by most accounts.

I know Dime City ships internationally, but they don't carry Caswell.

Contact Caswell and ask them.    Or you might have a friend in the states that is willing to buy it for you and ship it off.  There's only a part A and part B in the product and it's not covered under hazards for placarding trucks or shipping.

I'd disagree somewhat since mine has held up just fine since the 80's  ;)  Perhaps I did it right or maybe had something better to start with?
