Laminx in GTA?

Looking for yellow laminx for my fogs, any ideas if I can get this locally or am I ordering in from ModBargains?

Glass paint? The Laminx provides the preotection I need for the new depos and the fogs.
I just ordered that from Laminx (in georgia) $46 shipped.

I got the 12 mil clear for headlights and 12 mil yellow for fogs..

You talking about the Krylon stuff, right? I've looked everywhere and can't find it. I ended up e-mailing Krylon and this was their response:

Thank you for contacting Krylon. We appreciate your inquiry.

I am very sorry to hear that you are having trouble locating this product in your area. Unfortunately, our Stained Glass products are no longer distributed to Canada. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. The best suggestion I can offer would be to try searching online. You may find a local dealer that has remaining containers of this product by conducting a search in Google Shopping.

I hope this information is useful. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

I'm sure the glass paint would provide an exellent colour to the fogs, but the pitting over time is my problem. I have one new fog and one old and the difference in wear is so bad, I am buying another to match! (...and of course Laminx to protect)

Don't half ass this job, if you want a lasting colour that won't pit or chip away order the lamin x online. It's a very cheap way to protect your lights

The kit also included the laminx for the corners...

It was well packaged, a little spray bottle for application and detailed instructions.
