Good day guys,

I am looking to purchase a small quantity of plastic overcups. These
are the tops that cover the spray valve on any spray paint aerosol
can. I would be happy if you can find out who will sell to me EITHER
ONE of following products:

by Cobra Plastics:
    * 65MM (211) SINGLE SHELL
    * 65MM (211) DOUBLE SHELL
    * 65MM TAMPER RESISTANT GLOSS
    * 65MM TAMPER RESISTANT FLAT

by Berry Plastics: 211NDS, 211 SRC, 211 NIH, 100 SCX.

I need Red, or Black or Clear color in this preference. Gloss or Flat.
(this is for a Nekked-In Tin (not-aluminum) Aerosol Can, like any
regular paint can, except "straight wall"). Use Berry Plastics
numbering system as a guide, those models fit nekked-in cans only,
which is what I have. Berry Plastics's numbering is a better system,
defining the product in more exact way, I think.

I am looking to do a test run, so please, let me know if you have
found a seller, willing to sell a small batch, say 200 to 1500
overcaps. Berry Plastics and Cobra Plastics are NOT acceptable
answers. They said they don't have anything fewer than 25000, and that
is a bit too much for a test run.

I don't care if the seller is within US or overseas, as long as the
product will be shipped to california, without any kind of special
freight charges/custom requirements, that would make it either cost
prohibitive or impossible for a non-incorporated individual.

Thank you for your time,

Guntherg,

Zhongshan Weizhao Plastic Manufacturing Co., Ltd. supplies plastic
overcaps for aerosol cans; however the minimum order is 10,000 pieces.

Would this company work for you?

Bobbie7,

That is the essence of my trouble. I don't need so many. Even 1000 is
way over my head. But, I realise, that no one would deal with me on
those quantities.

So, here I am, willing to buy 200 (my actual needs) up to 1500. I
could consider 2000, I guess, because there is no reason to stop
exactly at 1500.

Now, 10000, bring up storage problems, shipping problems, and disposal
problems (May-be), and, of course the multiplication of my expences 6
to 7 times.

I hope this clarifies the matter,

Thank you for your effort.
