Bills72sj Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 I am heading the warning and just bought the only 3 cans of WLC from my local Hobby Lobby. I have only had problems with really old half used cans spitting instead of spraying. I consider it the price I pay for waiting too long. I will likely breakdown and buy an airbrush then decant my ancient cans of paint with a controllable piercing tool.

slusher Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 I lost several cans of Testors one coat from leaking around the seam...

And my local Michael's stores started discounting the paint line at clearance prices (1.74$ per spray can!). Asked about it, they said it was formely discontinued. This morning, I called Rustoleum (Canada) directly to inquire if any was left in stock ( I REALLY want to get some more). They said they had none in stock for 2 months now, because discontinued. If the manufacturer says it, I guess it's quite official. CT Maybe it’s just Canada, it’s still on the Testors Web sit for order..

Well, the various communications by Testor's were, shall we say, at the least "confusing". The only way to clear it would be to contact Rustoleum US headquarters, I guess. Good for you if they keep offering it in the USA. But their first press release seemed to place USA and Canada in the same "market definition", outlining the "international" nature of some cancellations (the rest of the planet outside US/Can?). I got lucky in finding 4 leftover cans at a small hobby shop 300 miles from me. But all hobby shops I talked with, in 6 different provinces, confirmed the "whole paint line was cancelled". Go figure... CT
