Coloured solder mask has disappeared from ebay? (Solved)

[Zepnat]

Hi, I'll be needing some more solder mask ink in the distant future, there used to be loads in all colours on ebay.
White, red and green I search for but there's only green now, it is puzzling does anyone know what's happened to the other colours...thanks

That stuff is such a pain the ass to use (and get a good result) for anything more than a couple cm square.  That said I checked ebay.com.au and there is no shortage, it just seems to be ebay.co.uk

Red (the only colour I've really had much luck with, I had a  10cc):

White (god this is a pig, never had a good result, I have a 100g):

Blue (also a prick, 100g, I'm pretty sure this is just the resist stuff, unlike the others it "dries"):

Thank you, they have a huge list of excluded countries and I now realise why it didn't show up on eBay UK.
Agreed it is awful messy stuff, I used the clear film from the resist to apply the ink, it is shiny and peels off ok, but the person who shipped the resist to me just stuffed it in a padded envelope and the creases in the clear film show on the solder mask!

Thanks for the tip on the blue paint drying, that's worth knowing.
