Johonno, millions of places round our way you can get it. Carisma in Harlow, Motorsport World Colchester, that shop by the Scooby dealer on the roundabout close to the Swimming pool/Maccy D's and of course Halfords....

Quite cheap for a large can and its not bad stuff really.If you prep the surface well and give light coats it finishes well. It dries a lot smoother than it looks when wet.And i havnt laquerd mine mate, ill show you at the next brighton meet if your there!
