A few months ago I ordered some 1-20 Alloy from RotoMetals. I've been ordering from them for years and the Alloy has always been first class.
The order I received a few months ago was in a different shape of ingot, segmented, and was a dull frosted color. Not the standard solid bar I always received and a very shinny finish. The alloy I received would simply not cast. It turned to an oatmeal consistency no mater the temperature and the bullets would crumble when tapped with a hammer. They were horrible.
This alloy was replaced by RotoMetals with no issues. They are a wonderful company to deal with.
I just placed another order a few days ago to take advantage of their 10% off Black Friday sale.
The bars showed up today...Segmented and frosty and they were sent from Ohio and not California as usual.
They were not packaged well at all and the box had torn open and the one bar was on the floor of the Fed-Ex truck. Usually the bars arrive in a double box with extra cardboard. I've never had an issue with the packaging. This order was in a single box with little packing tape. I'm amazed all 7 bars made it to my house!
I just hope they haven't started out sourcing their product to some concern in Ohio.
I'm going to try and cast with it to see how it does. Anyone else having the same experience with RotoMetals?
Stay tuned....................
