Stick it in a Tupperware pot, seal it up with tape. Pack in box filled with bubble wrap. Put declaration on side (for Canadian customs) describing as "pot from North UK". They will assume it's a china pot  ;)

Hi Tim

I now have the really funky metallic green from the 2011 Ford Fiesta sprayed, no worries. I did screw up a side panel by knocking it off its stand, so am delaying clear coating untilI re spray the one side panel.

Since I am having to wait to clear, and will have to wet sand the colour coat and spray a couple more colour coats becasue I stopped, I am thinking about doing something really funky with the clear, maybe a green pearl additive to the first couple of coats of clear, I am waiting for my paint supplier to get back to me with whatever might be available.

Now Timmy.................. you haven't been sniffing this stuff have you??????
 
Get your drugs right, you might make a cuppa or cookies or smoke it, but you certainly don't sniff the green :D
 
Hi Tim and all

I am fine for paint, really, thanks.

I am doing my own 2011 interpretation of 78 Mirage lizard green, in a lighter more lemony green metallic, and earlier today I picked up some prismatic metal flake to mix into the clear to shift the colour a bit and make the paint "pop" in the sunlight....I am having fun playing with paint, I may have to find something else to paint after I finish the two motorcyles I am doing currently :D

                      I am little bit frightened about  Canadian CUSTOMS......But BOLLOCKS TO 'EM
 
Hi Tim

thank you very much, but the bike is now painted in my 2011 interpretation of Mirage lizard green. I used Orchid Green metallic, added PPG prismatic flake to the first two coats of clear, then added gold flake to the third coat of clear, then buried everything in another 5 coats of clear. I am waiting for the clear to set up long enough that I can begin wet sanding/compounding/mirror polishing. See the photos in the "Mirage Green" thread.
