  • We got a chance to use the new Hartco stencil and we definitely have opinions on it.

    In the spring of 1991, a childhood dream came out of Curt Christman's mind and became a reality. Lewis County Monuments was started in 2007, and the name was changed to North County Memorials Inc. to better facilitate the current vision of serving Northern NY. Currently, Curt and his eldest son Christian are in a partnership operating the monument business. This small business has endured the ups and downs that all businesses encounter. Come along and enjoy the ride!!

    It’s always a gamble using a new stencil! I have had some rolls that didn’t react the same as the previous one and I always wondered if it had been stored too long somewhere on its way to me.

      That thought always crosses my mind when using a new roll that's acting strange.

    Foe my 2 cents, I switched from HartCo to UBlast awhile back and have been happy ever since!!!

      I few guys are saying they like UBlast I will have to try it. Are you doing double processing?

    So, I am very new to the sandblasting world, I work for a funeral home and we have decided to start doing our own sandblasting, we bought an SCM Sandblaster and are using their stencil at this time, just wondering with the Anchor Stencil, is there a certain model of stencil you use, I see on their website that Anchor Gold Double liner looks to be the better. Just wanted to see if you could give me any advise? Thank you very much and love your videos.

    For the bang for the buck we’ve found that U blast is the best for us. It weeds well and holds up pretty good blasting. Also one of the easiest to get right now.

      We find U -blast is extremely in consistent . We have to clean the cutter as it transfers adhesive to the sprockets as well as earlier the year the stencil was really hard causing the stencil cutter motor to get hot and causing waves in the lines . It’s been a rough year lol . Hopefully as we are hearing 3 M may get back into the business

    We had similar issues as you guys. Our biggest complaint was it says to not use any glue and we do double processing and hartco just didnt stick to a steeled panel. If you do use anchor or other typical memorial glue/filler it just turns into an ice rink. I even tried water based acrylic and other spray glues like 3m with no luck. We do 5000+ memorials a year so anchor is the only thing keeping us alive right now with high output production. I really do love the lil mom and pop shop you guys have tho, doing as many memorials as we do in a year is so stressful.

    • @-gravestonepros
      @-gravestonepros  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes I can only imagen how crazy doing that many monuments a year would be. We are glad anchor is working well. We have been told Wenzco is working on new Rubber will see how that comes out I'm hoping it will be more like 3M.

    The reason why Hartco cuts so hard is because all of their product lines contain PVC vinyl.

    Okay, that stencil SUCKS. It's extremely messy (a lot of glue). Plus it's difficult to pluck (weed). Go back to Anchor. Hope y'all didn't have the same problems we ran into. The letters have a tendency to move because of glue on the stencil.

    • @-gravestonepros

      I did not have that problem but we did go right back to Anchor for now.
