Tamiya spray paint in Canada

Post by uniquenamehere »

I'm really having a difficult time finding where to purchase spray cans of Tamiya paint. My LHS says they can only get polycarbonate paint, and they only order it once a month or less... so basically they don't want my money, or maybe it's not worth it for them.

Is there a place to order it online in Canada *that doesn't charge astronomical shipping rates*?

Hobby Hobby and Great Hobbies both carry Tamiya paints. They also happen to carry a wide selection of colours. Personally I like to buy from Hobby hobby because its a single point store and not a big chain - although they have a huge inventory.

Depends where you are located, but the Hobby and Toy Central in Kitchener seems to have a large selection of the regular Tamiya spray paint. The other locations may as well, assuming that there is one near you.

Thanks guys... I'll check out those options. I'm in Kitchener actually so Hobby and Toy Central might be a good option!
