Welcome Pinella's Paint! See www.pinellaspaint.com for our latest customer. They specialize in high end paint and industrial coatings.
Cool Tools update: the folks at Cool Tools filmed their review of Bloxygen and it will be episode 610 which will air on DIY the end of July or the start of August. Look for the episode called "Paintover."
Welcome to Spring! Warnes Paint has a new website. These folks have supported Bloxygen for years and years. Thanks to Mike, Craft and Tracy for all their work. They had a great Customer Appreciation Day on Friday, March 26th. Bloxygen was there with huge discounts on product.
Thanks to the folks at the Central Coast Woodturners. I've been a member for about 1.5 years now and I'm in awe at what these guys create...just beautiful work. They let me give a talk on finishing on Saturday 3/20 and it went very well. Thanks guys!
Woodworker's Journal ran a cover story on "Top 10 Shop Annoyances and how you can put them all behind you!" in their February 2010 issue. Sandor Nagyszalanczy's solution for protecting finish is, you guessed it, Bloxygen! Thanks for the writeup Sandor.
We also had some good customer reviews posted in the Handyman Club of America's website here. I sure love when customers do their own experiments only to find out that Bloxygen works as advertised.
As we posted earlier ToolMonger posted a review of Bloxygen on their site here. Within a few hours, the folks at Cool Tools at the DIY Network called us. They did a review and filming of Bloxygen and it will air on the DIY channel in April or May. Wow.
Ads: We are now also running ads in Woodworker West, Woodshop News, Soundings, Soundings Trade Only, and Sail Magazine. We also continue our advertising campaign on Google and in Popular Woodworking.
Dick Nites? The folks at the Tackle Underground have been actively raving about Bloxygen use with a premiere topcoat used when making fishing lures. Bloxygen works well to prevent the Dick Nite topcoat from skinning over. Thanks guys!
As reported earlier:
Please welcome Innate Technologies to our vendor list. They specialize in "quality kustom painting products and supplies" and have a beautiful site showing their recent paint jobs here. They've actually been selling Bloxygen for years, but now are adding it to their website. The folks there are awsome.
Last summer, we extended a welcome to Apollo Sprayers who agreed to carry Bloxygen in their new site, The Finishing Store. Also LSS, the owners of McFeely's Square Drive Screws, Gemplers, and a host of other great catalog sale outlets will be selling Bloxygen in several catalogs. This organization is very professional and extremely well organized; a pleasure to work with!
A local magazine called HomePro featured Bloxygen in a wonderful article. You can view it here.
ON THE HORIZON:
Whats next for Bloxygen? More advertising, a new point of sale display, website work, and more efforts to control costs. We're also working on even more activity on the internet. Let us know what you'd like!
CLASSIC BLOXYGEN REPORTS:
FIVE STARS! for Bloxygen from Wood Magazine
The August 1998 issue features a RAVING review of Bloxygen. The review is based on their own shop testing and resulted in FIVE stars for performance, FIVE stars for value, and the 1998 Editors' Chioce Award. We couldn't agree more. According to Wood, "Bloxygen keeps finishes fresh and helps reduce waste. It's just the ticket..."
See page 78 of issue 107 or our "Reviews" section:
Bloxygen was featured in Fine Woodworking magazine (issue #129, page 96). The article, in the Tools and Materials section, contains an article written by Jeff Jewitt, author and finishing expert. In the article, Mr. Jewitt says "The idea ... is quite simple" and "[Bloxygen] performed well on oil-based products." As you could imagine, we're pretty excited!
Our own testing continues and we are constantly looking for new samples or ideas. Please contact IronWood Designs and we'll arrange a test for you. Here's a photo of our current set of vials. One set is a "control" and hasn't had Bloxygen...the other set has been "gassed."
