Re: New goldblatt boxes


they look like they're built similar to the tapetech, I think the tapetech holds more mud, it just looks bigger.

Re: New goldblatt boxes


Do a search.

They don't have the best review as far as flatboxes are concerned.

Re: New goldblatt boxes


The problem is they are cheaper, but not that much cheaper. Just spend a little more.

They suck ass!!! If you are looking for a cheaper priced box set, if that is the reasoning here, then try out a TAFT box set , 8, 10 and 12'' .Absolutely the best price and quality . Side by side other than the color it doesn't take a rocket scientist to tell that they are made by NorthStar, well , they are made by NorthStar . I got a set from www.leadingedgedrywall.com and could not be happier .. stay away from the China tools . Of course thats just my opinion.

From my experience the SL1500 and the Mark 4 are quite comparable , wont hold a candle to the wind when it comes to the Mark 5 though .Check with your local supplier and get some product lititure on them .

Re: New goldblatt boxes


i've never even seen an airlessco (except on the net) if a supplier (leadingedge)would bring one for a demo that would be nice.

Hmm ,i know he gives guys a try before you buy policy but a sprayer could be pushing it ... you never know though . Many of my tools i got where demoed first before coughing up , ask them .Let me know how that works out
