Shipping MSC by airmail is prohibited/impossible because of aerosoles... You won't find a company that does it. I once bought MSC on eBay and it took 40 days to get to me because it was sent by boat ;). It takes a long time, but if it's the only way... That company doesn't always have it available though. I searched for it a while ago and couldn't find it anymore...

Awwww:( well which company is that, I will just eBay stalk them. I won't buy my girl from parabox until the next 3 weeks, so it will be like a month and a half till I get her in my hands, I am rooting the haruka head imam getting (hate wigs) and by the time she gets here, her eyes, hair, and experimental DDS part will be here. I can wait it out

The alternatives to MSC are:

Volks Zoukei-mura spray (available only in Volks shops, I believe they ship)
Testors Dullcote (available in model shops and art supply stores, not recommended because it tends to yellow and can become sticky on vinyl)
Model Masters Lusterless Lacquer Overcoat (available in gaming (Dungeons and Dragons etc) shops and model and radio control plane/car shops)
Vallejo Acrylic Aerosol Varnish 400ml - Matte (available in some game stores, some art supply stores)
Games Workshop / Citadel Aerosol Varnish 400ml - Purity Seal - Matte (Available in gaming stores )
