Customer Comments

I purchased this so I could use it in a vacuum chamber, to  stabilize soft stone. I have just finished my first batch, will be trying it out to see how it behaves on a cabbing machine.

So far, I can say that the cleanup has been very easy, the baking is a bit more touchy with the old toaster oven I have. I suppose I'll have to learn my oven a bit  better so I don't have as much bleed-out. However, even with a bitt of bleed-out, the stone seems very solid now.

As always,  I can count on fast delivery of my orders.

I'm a small business that does not really use a huge amount of product but they have always been exceptional infilling out orders and answering any questions that i may have. Very quick shipping and has always been 100% accurate. I really appreciate their professionalism!

I have been using Turn Tex for many years.  They are second to none on customer service, problem solving and timelyness.  You will not find a better company to work with.  This is not an opinion, it comes from  years of consistantly good service from an outstanding company.

Curtis runs his business with his heart. He will probably never get rich running it that way but he will always be remembered as first in class with his support and superior product. I should know. I run my AC business the same way. I am not rich but I have food in my belly and know, when I lay my head down at night, that I did the best I could with my customers and tried to always exceed their expectations, questions, concerns and needs. Bear in mind though, that I work in a metropolitan city, whereas Curtis works for folks all over the world. I am sure he sleeps soundly, but heck, I wonder if he really gets that much sleep due to the sheer size of territory he covers. It makes me tired just thinking about it. All in all, Curtis helped me with a technical issue as to how long to heat my dyed blanks for segmented wood turning before wrapping, cooling and soaking/ vacuuming and continued soaking. I am now confident each time I stabilize my pieces that I will get better and better. Hats off to you Curtis. There are not many like you.

All I can say is the products are top shelf and the service is also top shelf. You won't find better. I run a custom bow shop and when I find small businesses like this I do two things; give them ALL my business and I spread the word.

They ship very fast on top of everything else!

Great service and prompt shipping. 
Very easy to use product.

The product is great and so is the very quick shipping.  First class operation 👍

TurnTex continues to go above and beyond by providing the best products, fast shipping, and unparalleled customer support & service.   

Customer support is where TurnTex truly shines. Curtis is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and always ready to go above and beyond to answer questions or offer guidance. It’s rare to find a company so dedicated to ensuring their customers succeed with their projects.

TurnTex is the gold standard in this industry and I can’t recommend them enough!

Great customer service,  Contents of order packed well, arrived in great shape.  Will continue to order from Turn Tex

Great Product! I am getting back into Stabilization and this produce is on time , on target ( Army slogan) for Great. 

Full Stream Ahead ( where is this from?? ) 

Cactus juice is amazing stuff! I just completed my first successful run of stabilizing using a turntex chamber with a pump saver online, not once did I ever come close to sucking any juice out! The wood i stabilized was really old and very dry barn maple, it soaked up an amazing of juice, but the end product turned out very well. Haven't had a chance to mess with the dyes yet, but the color in the bottles are very stunning!

First time to use Cactus Juice.  I used it on cactus bones, sand dollars, dried star fish and assorted sea shells for casting in epoxy.  Worked Great!!!!

Great instructions, great product! Worked very well.

Was a great experience ordering the epoxy Was packed very well and shipped on time Will always buy from you guys

I placed a small order and it was handled just like a large order.  It was shipped same day I made the order.  It was packed well and was received sooner than expected.  Curtis has always stood behind the products he sells and is ready to give technical assistance if needed.  Thanks, Bruce D.

I ordered a jug of cactus juice and 3 days later I was using in my shop. 

You really helped me out. And fast too

There are several things I can always count on when dealing with Curtis and that’s what keeps me coming back.  His products are top notch, the prices are reasonable, and the service is always prompt a d courteous!  Thanks again to TurnTex for another great experience!

There is this saying Happy Wife Happy Life, we in this case Happy customer Happier Seller. Although my orders are few and in-between the service is always outstanding and fast. 

Wow. You put Amazon to shame with delivery time. I had my Cactus Juice and dyes the next day. I have watched your demo video twice all the way through and am formulating in my mind the exact process to get the best result. i am a segmenter and want my Paduak to stay red/orange and my purpleheart and yellowheart to maintain their vibrant color - and even boost it some. I enjoy processes so this adventure should be fun for me. Thank you!

Very pleased with the order being sent prompt;ly as well as the great packing.

Thank you!

 

This last order was the usual Great Service I've come to expect with a GREAT product.

Great product, easy to use does a fantastic job.  Customer service with TurnTex is an example for the industry to follow!

Ive used Cactus Juice from Curtis since 2017-2018. Ive never had an issue with any of resin. As long as you take care to follow his simple instructions for use. Starting with being sure your wood is 0% moisture. Having positive results is just a matter of proper use and storage in between uses. Majority of issues Ive read over the years always falls back to user error. I order multiple gallons at a time never concerned or worried about the quality of the product. The absolute best stabilizing resin for small businesses or home casters.

It was my first time ordering from TurnTex they're really supportive and really fast in shipping the package. I received it on time with no issues. 

Very good shop:

In time shipping and delivery;

Best price 

Excellent products for wood dyeing and stabilizing

Thanks for good service and products

i love everything about the turn tex atmosphere and functions of how who what and where.  they are real and not sending anything they themselves wouldn't cast with.  plainly said great product and good people.

Curtis:

   Thank you for shipping my 4-gallon order quickly and well packaged. They arrived in perfect shape, and I have already used up one and a half gallons! A fellow woodturner asked me to stabilize two large pieces for him: one 4x6x9 cherry and one 12x12x2 spalted maple. I then did six pieces of varying sizes for myself. I have those "baking" right now, and tomorrow I plan on making hybrid charcuterie boards. My friend has yet to turn his two pieces, but I hope he shows them to me when done!

I am quite impressed with the products I have from TurnTex as well as the great support and fast deliveries.  My plans for retirement are to spend more time with this equipment and making some interesting turnings.  The quality is excellent and I could not be happier with my purchases.

I recently just ordered a gallon of Cactus Juice. First time I have tried this process. Stabilized some Blue Mahoe and it almost tripled the wight afterwards. Directions were very simple and everything cleaned up nicely. Awesome product and I am sure my blanks will turn out better the next round

I have ordered various products from Turntex and have been very pleased each time. From cactus juice to vacuum chambers their products are simply the best. I highly recommend this company and their products.

I’ve ordered resins from TurnTex several times over the last few years. Curtis goes out of his way to provide his customers with the best service possible, and is the most knowledgeable source for information pertaining to resin casting and stabilizing. It’s obvious that customer satisfaction is a priority here! 

Always, I mean always, Great service. Products are top quality and a wide selection. Highly recommended company!!!

I love this stuff, I have started using this stuff in my industry and it’s amazing! Great quality product, and the new product they sent me is perfect, did not foam up at all! I love it.

Beyond the fact that shipping is fast and orders are exactly what you ask for, the customer service from Turn Tex is pretty much unbeatable. I have reach out on facebook and email and never had to wait long for a response. Curtis makes every effort for his customers to suceed and have the right products. For example, my first order I ordered a chamber and a hose kit. Instead of just sending what I ordered and taking my money, Curtis emailed and explained that I did not need the kit and that his chambers come with everything. That may not mean much but man it meant the world to me that he was reading the orders and taking the time to reach out. In short, I cant brag on this company enough. I wish everyone took as much pride in their products and service as Curtis does. Thank you, Justin

It's been a few years since my last order and I believe the formula has changed since I was last using the resin. Still the same great customer service and very happy with the outcome on the stabilization. I have some Cherry burl, Oak burl, and Maple burl that I harvested from trees on my property a few years ago. Its nice to get them ready to make into knife handles, pen blanks, and wood turnings.

Very happy with my cactus juice purchase so far.  Shipped promptly.  So far I have vacuum soaked and then baked first batch of black walnut.  So far, so good but test will be when cutting out individual blanks.

Always a pleasure doing business with TurnTex. The products are top quality and the service is always great. Highly recommend TurnTex.

You guys are always “On the mark”& incredibly quick to respond (especially Mr. Curtis ), yo help with questions. I just started using huge cactus juice Color Dyes & it’s taken my knife appeal to a whole new level.

Thank You,  Many Blessings

I am very pleased with the product and the speed of delivery. The customer service is exceptional as well when needed. I ordered 4 bottles of one product and received a call in a very short time stating they only had 3 bottles. They apologized for the inconvenience and assisted me with another product. It is nice to be able to talk to a real person who is kind to their customer. 

I recently tried my hand at stabilizing and dying wood. I'm a custom knife maker and wanted to use some wood from some historic trees damaged in storms to make handles. I purchased cactus juice and aztec gold dye. The process went smoothly and I followed the instructions exactly. I was nervous leaving the vacuum pump running overnight so I turned it off, leaving everything under vacuum. It started up in the morning and ran another 10 hours until no bubbles. I wrapped the blocks in foil, baked for 4 hours and the came out great. Almost every block doubled in weight! I was very impressed with the reduced foaming of the new product. Very different than YouTubes showing the process with the old formula.

Always the absolute best service. Shipping is well packed and fast. Highly recommended company.

i have a thousand questions and curtis is patient and shares his invaluable knowledge with me. it is much appreciated as i have found few resources to guide me in stabilizing premium blocks for high end handgun grips. my knowledge grows all the time and the quality keeps getting better. i am sure there will be more questions as i go along, and i am sure curtis will keep helping. A++!

Thank you Turn Tex, 

I received the gallon of Cactus juice and the dye 2 days earlier then suggested by the delivery service. I was elated and went to work stabilizing some petrified wood. It worked like a charm as always and I look forward to testing the dye in the near future. 

I received email updates after ordering which shows me that you care about the customers. Great experience all around the I can't recommend this product and customer service enough. I have been telling all my friends as well!

Sincerely,

We are very happy with the Cactus Juice Stabilizing Resin and the Cactus Juice Dyes. The resin and liquid dyes are easy to mix and we love the bright colors the dyes produce and so do our customers. Thank you for making these products available to the wood worker community! We will be back again as we have before. 

Product appears to work as intended, I am making a wood and epoxy putter head and needed the wood to be as dense as I could get. It worked.

I’ve ordered resin and dyes. Items I order, are delivered quickly. Being in the same state helps, but there still is no guarantee from any company, but turntex always comes through. 
mom always comfortable ordering from turntex

I recently purchased the pump saver. It is heavy duty and extremely well made, just like their Vacuum chambers. I highly recommend Turn Tex products.

great customer service and fast shipping.

also packaged very well to keep products safe during shipping
