there was a major flood in the factory where this product is made. They've been out of production nearly a year. They project May as when product might become available once more. I have tried several other brands this year and have not been pleased with the results of the others.

Does it have to be 15"?
I have some sand blast mask at the shop, but I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's 24". I can check tomorrow.

I blast through the Hartco in a minute on wood. I usually blast at 175 lbs. with a 1/4" tip from around 30-36".

I have a 15 inch punched roll of Hartco high tack you can have for the cost of the freight. I do not care for Hartco at all. It's quite old but I peeled some back and it came off the paper backer and was still very tacky. It's dated 1999.

it's interesting that Hartco mask is not well liked by some ...I've been using it since the early 80's without any problems. jeff, bill said sell you one of ours. it's here right now... 15" 10yds roll

Yes, my supplier informed me of the Anchor facility flood. Thanks for all the help. I am going to give Hartco a try and do a test blast at 40-50? correct?

I believe 85psi is the recommended pressure.
Posted by Vance Galliher (Member # 581) on :
40-50 is what I use for glass jeff...I think wood would require more

Have used Hartco s425s on wood and 18# hdu for many years...in fact a new roll just came in today...the only problem I've ever had has been a little stencil lift at times...if that occurs I stop and simple staple down the lifted up edge using a $1 stapler from Walmart...I do have to tear off the bottom jaw of the stapler to make it work for this purpose...simple and works well.

Thanks everyone. Did a test blast, seems fine. Just got to make sure surface is super clean and blast it a little lighter. We'll see how the signs turn out.

I needed some #155 but they still aren't producing any so I ordered some Hartco . Havent used any of that in awhile but the job cant wait.
Posted by Jeff Wisdom (Member # 6193) on :
So the job turned out great. The company that does my blasting backed off the distance and only one little area lifted but not noticeable. Looks like I will be using Hartco for awhile. So Dave Sherby, I will be in touch on the roll when I get a chance. Thanks!
