Where can a budding Luthier like myself buy Behlen's Rockhard Varnish in Canada - specifically the Toronto area. Due to the issues with hazardous materials shipping I can't get this sent up from normal mail order sources.

David, Behlens is the very same product as Mohawk's as they are different branches of the same parent company who's name escapes me at the moment. I don't know if they have an exact equivalent to the Rockhard, but I know many members here use the 'Classical Instrument Lacquer' and love the stuff...

Hope this helps.

I read on the Canadian Woodworking Forum site that Goudey's in Toronto may carry some of the Behlen line. May be worth a call.
