That looks like some really good paint. Unfortunately it doesn't look like I can get it the U.S. :( Are you spraying it or brushing it on?

Large areas spraying- small areas brushing. I always use Brantho - but i think there will be a good as Brantho in U.S ?!?

Today i impregnate the seams with Owatrol Oil. This Oil has a good capable of creep and is dry after 24 hours. After that you can overpaint with base coat. In that case with Brantho!

Sorry for the bad pictures today - i forgot my Canon and so i used my iphone!

I'll have to do some research. I'm not finding any alternatives yet though. I just emailed the company to see if they can recommend an alternative available in the U.S. From what I'm reading about it, it looks like some really great stuff and better than the normal POR 15 and others we see over here in the U.S.
