I got my can of terracotta at the big orange box but they no longer carry it, don't know about the other color.

I found this in Sweden:


Seem alright when I did a quick test (for modern US armor):



I think there's another brand in the UK with a similar product as well, but I can't remember it's name and haven't seen it used either.

Cheers,

the large hardware/do-it-yourself store in canada called Rona carries the whole line of rust-oleum paints:

http://www.rona.ca/shop/~paint-multicolour-textured-paint-rust-oleum-439985_rust-oleum_paint_shop

i believe it cannot be bought online as shipping pressurized spray cans is complicated, at least in canada.

here is the contact info for rust-oleum for international sales:

i don't know if in turkey (and brazil) if you have do-it-yourself hardware stores but you should also check local artist supply businesses as they carry specialized texturing sprays usually.

I just can't find any of the rustoleum products online (I know there are complications about shipping paints and sprays in North America), I even mailed to regional representative of Rustoleum but they could not help me either.

I want to found any spray products to make "Western" style (ie Abrams, Leopard, Stryker) anti-slip surfaces and also "Merkava" style, they are very different as you know. Maybe "Games Workshop"s product will do but two products that i mentioned just perfect for the job..

Have you checked for the CRC brand in Turkey? Rust-o-leum American Accents products are not carried in Europe AFAIK. If you can find the Terracotta product I posted above I think you will be happy.

I've tried the Games Workshop Roughcoat and while the "size" of the texture pigments are right for IDF anti-slip I feel there are just not enough of it to make it a good product for that use. One have to put on to many layers to get a good finish.

Hi Zapper,

Thanks for the help, I checked CRC, they have not any distributor here in Turkey, and not online, but instead I found these :

I think these products will do the trick, I can buy them online..
