No I haven't.................does it have any odor???

 

Tenax is almost smell free..........some welders like ambroid would knock you out.

Funny how often this comes up. GM shows as having more than 6 units in stock, Spruebrothers showing 32 units in stock.

The hobby store I work at has a few bottles on the shelves. I'll check with our suppliers when I'm there tomorrow night to see if they have any.

Yeah, I'm having problems finding it locally, too. The mediocre Hobbyland up by the local mall ("local" meaning 35 miles one way) has been out of Tenax and Ambroid for months, and par for them, have no idea when more is coming in. Same goes for my good hobby shop on the west side of Cleveland. 

Must be those darned Libyans, drying up the solvent glue market.

The reason most LHS don't have certain items is because they don't or won't order it for a number of reasons. Some are completely out of the loop as to what products are available...even though many mfrs place nice ads in the trade and consumer magazines they receive or sell.

Alright, I've got 8 bottles of it on my shelves at the hobby store I work at in Columbus. All my distributors that stock it have it as well.

I've got about 10 bottles from the first time I heard they were gone.  Had I done that each time this came up I would be the new distributor.Wink
