I just went through this 2 weeks ago...I went with silver leaf and am very happy with the color and ease of use! |

I ordered from the yahoo fimo site in Ben's post. It took a couple weeks for the package to arrive (longer than most of mail orders I've done recently) and they have a $25 minimum so I ordered lots of different colors, but they only sent 4 tubes. All in all, it's still easier to mail order than to search. BTW, the ebony color works great on window trim. |

Either one. The Silver Leaf has a little more brilliance. |

Which Rub & Buff color best matches? I guess either the silver leaf or pewter? |

Jeff, Have Joannes Fabrics order it in for you. I have been in those stores in Florida and Maryland and they all carry it. |

Thanks Magoo - in my original post I explained that I DID go to a JoAnne's Fabrics store in a nearby town (40 miles away) and they did NOT have it. And we don't have a Michael's Crafts store anywhere nearby. I have searched all over this area, and also used the yellow pages, no luck. It's kinda nice to have the only Ferrari in my town, but I wish things were more obtainable here in "Hooterville" Michigan. I will just order on-line. |

Jeff, Go to Joannes' Fabrics craft store. They for sure have it. Michaels crafts has it also. Use your yellow pages under crafts and you will find it. |

I have searched all the hobby stores and craft shops, and even drove 40 miles to another town to check out a Jo Anne's Fabrics store and cannot find any rub and buff. Is there some similar product that works the same? At times it is a pain living in small-town America, things the big city boys have access to I have plan a two day round trip to get. |
