    Harbor Freight red discontinued?

    HF emailed me that the red powder was a "discontinued item" and removed it from my last order. I hope that's temporarily.

    Likely the PC interest depleted their stock.

    It's still listed on the website

    I placed an order with HF two weeks ago for a gun and paint. I was emailed that red was cancel from my order. I was able to pick up red in the local store last week.

    I went to the HF web site and selected Red PC Paint. It was added to my cart, but listed as:


    16 Oz. Powder Coat Paint, Red
    Item #:93309

    * This product is not available in the requested quantity. 1 of the items will be backordered.


    Looks like they may just be out at the warehouse and have to order a new ship load from China.

    Same for me. I figured they had been overrun by casters buying it all up.....

    I called HF last week about an order and asked when they were going to get it in. The guy told me late April. Who knows what that really means.........

    Looks like I need to make some orange with the H/F red, and yellow to stretch it out for the time being.

    That's gotta be enough for 2 or 3 lifetimes now! You just bought several jars a couple of weeks ago! I'm still on my first jar! LOL

    My local store had several pounds in stock earlier this morning. Grabbed one can of red. I could have grabbed several others but honestly think I'm pretty well set for PC powder right now, especially for a guy who isn't shooting half as much as he'd like to.
