Christian we have tried other brands but like the Anchor products the most. We very rarely need to use stencil filler anymore after we were shown how to heat the stone up prior to applying the stencil. It is nice to have almost zero cleanup. Love the videos.
@@-gravestonepros We purchased a CNC Autoblast machine a couple years ago. When Josh came out to give us a day of training he saw we were still using filler and asked why. He then showed us how to heat the stone with a propane torch to remove all the moisture from the stone before applying the sandblast resist. It works on the polished surface as well as the frosted/honed panel. Liftoff or blowoff almost never happens now and cleanup is a breeze. He has a few videos on TH-cam demonstrating how to do it. Just wanted to help save you some time and effort, I look forward to the videos you put out.
Christian is always hoping that our videos are a little bit entertaining. I’d like to here comments on how entertaining his handlebar mustache is becoming 😅
What are the numbers of the different stencils you used. I only use the 15" , as I only blast smaller stuff. I used to love the 3m, now I only use Anchor 116, 117, and trying the 113s. All work really well, but would like to try the Ublast and Hartco.Thanks, love your videos!
Not sure the # for Ublast but I use 790TY for Anchor And the Hartco was MT40SPI-30. For Ublast I just told them what I get from Anchor and they sent me what they thought I would like.

I have never tried the Anchor without filler interesting.

So far we are still liking the Ublast.
Great video! Hadnt heard of hartco before this
Ya they are interesting. Not my #1 go to but not bad.
Love you guys!
Thanks.
In my experience if Anchor would make the stencil stick to the Mylar just a little more it would be much better. They used to make a better product.
They have worked well for us but I think we can do better. Did you ever use the 3M?
@@-gravestonepros yeah I did use 3m and did like it but the old anchor 124 was my favorite.

You know its lowkey the main draw.
