tamiya consider the ingredients for their paints as a bit of a trade secret, the E/U says tamiya must put all the paint ingredients on the jars, tamiya refuse so the E/U intend to ban them........... :-[

Flaming E/U sticking their noses in where it is not wanted again
I suppose tamiya could list the contents of the paint, but not the quantity of the ingredients
is the USA having this problem with Tamiya paints

Sorry to say it's not just Tamiya paints that are in ths sh@t, I heard at the Huddersfield show last weekend from traders that Vallejo are in the same boat - so stock up guys.

8 yrs ago i started the Washington model club there was no problems until the PC brigade wanted to see the tools the club members would use they almost had a stroke when they saw them, we had better get used to water based paints you know the ones i mean, the type a 5 year old uses in play school because soon we will have nothing else.............. >:( >:( >:(

you may be right Tony, but if we do nothing then those eu tossers get their way. but if we can get enough people to put their names to it, then we may stand a chance, what i will do is have a word with the mrs(she's a mod on another forum or 2) and see if there is something we can do
