I am curious if I could use a flu set mortar as the coating over the ceramic fiber (after rigidizer) or would this be similar to using a refractory cement, I have a local block company that sells "ALSEY Flue-Set" Non-Water Soluble Refractory Mortar-- Medium Duty, which has a service temp of 2700. I am attaching the product data sheet, after this I would apply either the ceramic coating Flue-set_NWS_mortar.pdf

Thank you Mike, I have give a special thanks to BuzzKill, he hooked me up with a copy.

Mike is there any other places to obtain your book, I have attempted to find it on the "pirated" sites but they all appear to be scams and the print books are out of my league in cost.

Would this be what I would use as the refractory coating over the ceramic fiber, and is this something I can trowel on or will I need to make a form

Great information, I plan to take a wire brush to the paint on it. Any other suggestions cleaning it

Thanks for the information

I recently purchased an ACME anvil, I believe it is 99 pounds since it has 99 stamped under the ACME, am not sure if it is a Trenton or Hay Budden. I have several photos. Also am a newbie so what would be a beginners size hammer to use on a 99 lb anvil. Also would anyone have an idea about when it was made?
