<p>I CAN SELL CORTEC IN AUSTRALIA</p>
<p></p>
<p>I bought a 19L of Cortec, it is the smallest quantity that they sell, and I can confirm that it is REALLY expensive. </p>
<p></p>
<p>I re-sell it by the litre. Just message me if you need any. One liter will probably do a whole aircraft.</p>

Hi Jason,<br/>
Cortec is simply latex rubber in its natural form. To keep is flowing just add a little ammonia water. Once it dries on metal surfaces it polymerises making it an excellent corrosion inhibitor. You can buy crude latex instead of the cortex product since that is all that it is.<br/>

<p>According to my POC at Cortec said "Since there seems to be a consortium of builders up there, I would think that someone could buy the 5 gallons and split it amongst the enthusiasts." </p>
<p></p>
<p>Well, this what Zenith is doing by providing cortex by the quart. Also, I do not believe Zenith profits by selling cortex, as they are not a distributer and don't advertise it; they likely just charge enough to recover their expenses. </p>

<p>I intend to approach our local EAA chapter and aircraft supply store to see if they're interested in doing the same as Zenith.</p>

That's a top reason I want to use Cortec... the lack of fumes.<br />
<br />
The problem I'm having is finding small quantities here in Canada. The Canadian distributor only sells in 5 gallon pails at $100 a gallon.<br />
<br />
I placed an inquiry with Zenair in terms States and they sell it by the quart but the shipping is astronomical.<br />
<br />
Anyone coming back to Canada after the factory open house who'd be willing to bring me some back? LOL

<p>Jason, I was lucky to befriend a Cortec distributer who was kind enough to supply me sample packs. Hopefully a distributer will send you sample packs as well. Otherwise, I believe Zenith is your best source for smaller amounts. We used about 6 pints total. By the way, before closing we used zinc phosphate on all large and inaccessible areas such as inside wings, under seats, aft fuselage, etc.</p>
