Re: SMooth on EA-40
I don't think it is available here anymore. I would also be interested to know if it is.

Re: SMooth on EA-40
mate i was advised to use techniglue and it was great. very easy to use as it is a gel, not powder. it mixes well, goes on easy and is easy to wash off tools and what not as its water based.
you can get it from carbatech in brisbane and its not that dear. i'm sure its available elsewhere too.

Re: SMooth on EA-40
Rowe Trading used to carry it but I'm not sure they still do.
I know lots of people use the Techniglue successfully but I have only worked with it once and can say I preferred Smooth-On. I have used Smooth-On for around eighteen or so years and it has more than proven itself. I will stick (excuse the pun) to using it.

Re: SMooth on EA-40
Hey mates and Gday, If u ever need any smoth on let me know as I would be more then happy to buy it here in the U.S and send it over there to u guys. If it would save u some money..... But I found out not to buy it from three rivers as I know a place that has it for about 20-25 U.S.. Well he did when I went to trad bow show.. but he told me thats what it should be selling for... Let me know mates......

Re: SMooth on EA-40
Got this today.
Hi Tom,
Yes we have EA40 in pint kits @ $68.54 inc gst to get it to the ACT would be
about $20 freight.

Fred Woods
Sales Manager
Ph 08 8234 0000
$20 freight is a bit steep.
Apparently $35US (which is what it is from 3rivers) is around $55 Aus.

Re: SMooth on EA-40
Yea that does seem very steep for freight especially so for a company that would be sending stuff off all the time. I wonder if they sell a bit of it and keep fresh stock as it does have a shelf life of 12 months I think.
Thanks Cody.
Jeff
Thanks Cody.

Re: SMooth on EA-40

Re: SMooth on EA-40
That's BS. Maybe the US is the way to go if they don't care about their customers.LB rod 55 wrote:Tom we got two lots so it worked a little bit cheaper than that, but i was'nt happy with the dented tins that turned up, just lucky the lids were still tight.i wont be getting it through them again.........................Rod

Re: SMooth on EA-40
I get my techniglue from ACT Fibreglass supplies - sell boat building gear - so anywhere that sells stuff for fibreglass/wooden boats is a good bet.
Are you well informed or is your news limited?
