I'm a displaced war gamer from the US currently living in Australia. I don't know why, but for some reason, Testor's Dullcoat, my preferred sealant is wildly rare here. My local hobby shop can get it, but it's not terribly reliable and I don't feel like waiting a month or three to seal the other half of an Avenger Strike Fighter or squad of infantry. What's a decent replacement that provides a similar finish? I can get things like Modge Podge from the nearby craft store but they don't do anything with hobby kits so no Testor's there. If it's something that can generally be purchased in big cans all the better. (Dear Testor's, full size cans ffs!)

I don't find it terribly difficult to find Dullcote over here (Melbourne).

Most hobby stores carry it round these parts.

It's very popular among the model aircraft and tank guys, so most stores that sell model aircraft and tanks sell dullcote as well.

I'm out in Adelaide, near as I can tell there's one store in the city that really does model and hobby stuff besides the local GW

TS-80 looks interesting. Combat Company is good tip too. Thanks.
