OK- I've found a seller for this in the UK. Is it just a case of brushing on, leaving a few minutes and rinsing off, or does it need to be added to a specific solution to use? I may just go with a black wash of paint....

Yes I used a cloth to apply the alumblack onto the brick, letting it dry and adjust on some specific spots. i also used a brush to apply in the imperial logo and the two slots behind. That makes the brick entirely black.
Then i went on it with sandpaper, but lightly to avoid sanding the recesses.
You can use paint as well, but not sure if it is going to stay on the aluminum for long. But it could be a great way to add a bit of coloring to the metal like blue, green or brown
Was watching this run from the beginning and now regretting I didnt throw my name in. So if there is a second run, Im down for 1 brick.

Mine was released from Russia on May 14th putting it in the hands of the British postal service. This could take a while, folks! 
Another thought occurred to me is that international mail might have to go through a two week quarantine period. Just a guess.

Carrier pigeon most likely.Almost all parcels to UK and Europe arrived.
Zero to the USA. Maybe they use boats to deliver it

Looks great
I bet you it's being held intentionally because of the pandemic (last movement was 9 days ago...nothing on any tracking site).
Those bricks above are stunning!

They are really taking their time with these packages to USA! Over a month now since you shipped mine.Almost all parcels to UK and Europe arrived.

Perhaps intercepted by imperial remnants.
Sucks.
Lemme ask you this - would the Folgers Decaf method work to blacken these things? Then a light sanding to bring back the detail? For those that can't lay hands on Aluminum Black...
