Calgary; There really aren't any vette stores here...the only place vette related is probably Western Corvette, and they deal with restorations...not shop supplies

got mine from Sherwin Williams paint supply...I don't think the Bix works as well as Strip-Eze (local hardware store brand). If you are anywhere near a serious automotive store (NOT auto-Zone, etc) ask if they can order PYROX (trade name). Used in the aircraft industry for paint removal. Developed to remove epoxy, will remove paint AND primer.....some removers get a little stupid and forget what they are supposed to be doing when confronted with primers and sealers. If you got the Bix video??? look carefully, they are ONLY removing 1 paint job and I'm not sure it is a factory color, which means the kind of paint is questionable.....

Western Corvette sells parts as well. Call them and ask if they can get some for you.
