Best poly-urethane for DIY motor mounts

I'm looking to fill my motor mounts. I know I need to get 3M window Weld, I can't that stuff anywhere in Ottawa. Any one have any suggestions on where I can find this in canada or ottawa?
thanks

I did a search online for do it yourself motor mounts. I came across a good website: http://www.mr2sc.com/websites/tech/SolidMounts1.htm
It seems that this guy is using a 2 part urethane and hardener mix. Chemical reaction VS air drying(3m window weld)
I just ordered this urethane mix from http://www.mcmaster.com/ search for part number 8644K11
I'll write a DIY and a good review once I get this installed. This would be VERY similar to buying the filled mounts from RRM. But at a fraction of the cost

When they refer to "front" and "rear" motor mounts, is that refering to the front and rear of the car, or the front and rear of the engine? Probably front/rear of the car, but I want to be sure.

yeah, front and rear of the motor. If you can get you eyes under there you can see that the front one is easy to access. But the rear one will be a pain. You will have to jack and hold the motor to remove the back one. BTW I already received my poly fill from mcmaster-carr. it came from Ohio to Ottawa, ontario in 24 hrs. damn fast shipping. I planning on filling my muffler mounts too, as they are very soft and with my upgraded sway bar the pipe hits the sway bar. Makes some horrible noises. But I will fill them too and cure the problem
