Default Plastikote ..

I ordered a new Barney cage for my little hammy Indie. She surprised us with a litter of 8 the day after she arrived. So she is in a cage with the babies. However in about 3 weeks time I will be separating the babies from Indie, and Indie will be going into her Barney.
Could some one tell me where I could buy plastikote as I would like coat the wooden shelf and the wooden house that came with the cage. It would be very helpful if someone could post a link to this product so that I dont end up buying the wrong product. I want to be sure it is safe for Hammies. Many thanks xx

Thank you Scampi16 for these links. There is a Wilko by my workplace, and got the plastikote on Friday. Will be doing some painting today. Thanks again

I ordered it on amazon for £5.59, its great, but the smells quite strong, hoping it will fade over the next week!

Thanks for the tip petz4life - Indie will not be moving into her new cage for another 3 weeks. So hopefully all smell should be gone.
