Default Looking for a CAN of Pactra Aero Gloss Cessna Green Dope

Like the title says, I'm looking for a Pint or Half-Pint can (8 or 16oz) of vintage Pactra Aero Gloss Cessna Green Dope. Looking for same in Silvaire Aluminium as well.

Always looking for ANY Quart Cans of Aero Gloss Dope in any color but Stearman Red.
I have enough Stearman Red to paint an entire full-scale Stearman.

A lot of civilian Stearman Biplanes are painted Stearman Red.

I know, but it's fun to contradict you.

I can get modern Randolph dope from them or Brodak.
I'm looking for a vintage Pactra Aero Gloss CAN of the Cessna Green dope for a collection.
Even an empty can will do but it has to be either a 8oz or 16oz can.
I have it in 1oz and 4oz jars. I have enough of the small jars and spares to fill the can.
