Well, it's not exactly paint,
it's a sealer for exterior stone and masonry.

This stuff :

http://www.stonetechdirect.com/servlet/the-110/StoneTech,-Professional,-Heavy-Duty,/Detail

The problem is, this stuff is a tad toxic , (..which means it works REALLY well ! ;-)
so it's banned for sale in a few states, including NY State where I have my PO Box.

So the on-line store won't ship to me in NY State, nor will they ship to Canada...

So I'm looking a "relay" point, in a State that allows shipping.
(ie. any Eastern State south of Virginia ).

See this map for States NOT in red

Ie. [ As unusual at this request will seem... ] I'm looking for someone
who can receive this package for me, and ship it to me via UPS ground to
a UPS Store in NY State .

I will of course pay for all costs, and will offer some kind of compensation
for your trouble. (eproms, parts, etc..)

The stuff is coming from Florida, and I'm picking-up in NY State,
so a "relay-point" on the Eastern Cost would be best
(...No point paying for extra shipping cost if I don't have to )

So if anyone can help, that would be great. (PM me)

But if not, no worries, I'll just let my porous stone chimney absorb more rain water ! ;-)


Thanks,
Steph
 
BTW,

In case anyone was wondernig...,
I don't "think" I'm doing anything illegal.... ;-)

I want to use this on my house ( in Canada ), where it is allowed
... but sells for $250 gallon !

Thanks,
Steph

Looks like you need to move that PO box to Vermont.;)

WTF....even in "red" states, a 1 quart container IS legal.....larger containers (like 1 gallon) are illegal.

Problem solved...

I'll ship the "stuff" to relatives we'll be visiting in June.

---

But I wanted to publicly thank the two members who unselfishly offered to help.

I also find it quite intriguing that they both share the same last name...

I don't know if they are related and share a chemical depency on solvent fumes,
or if it was just one of those quirky flukes..

Either way, thanks to Elutz and smalltownguy2 for their offer to help.


Cheers,
Steph
 
Any time. Glad to help :)

No, no relation to Edward that I know of - but I did purchase some HWC slugs from him once, and he's helped me out on some other monitor issues. Good guy.
