Mail ordering paint to APO
Posted by Centurion34 on Sunday, January 22, 2012 3:15 AM

I moved to Europe. I am retired army and my wife is active Air Force. There are few hobby shops near us. I understand that if I order paints spray bottles from internet, they will only mail acrylic products. I have only used Testors enamels for years (decades!) any thoughts?

Where in Europe?

If you can't find Testors locally, you should at least be able to order it online inside of the European Union?

I live in Belgium. I haven't made a big effort to look in Brussels or pay in Euros. I was hoping to use a vendor like Internet Hobbies and get through APO, but looks like acrylic only.

Aerosols are hard to get shipped anywhere, and I use them rarely. I don't know of any Belgium online stores, but you might try:

I have ordered from them a couple of times, and they where very fast. Had my stuff in a couple of days, and delivery to Sweden is probably slower.

They don't seem to have the Model Master spray paint, but they carry the the normal paint, so they might be able to get it for you, and ship it by train.
