BACKGROUND

BOLDStone is value engineered as an alternative and ‘green’ finish to replace natural stone. BOLDStone is 1/10^th the cost, at least 1/10^th the weight and installs in 1/3^rd the time of natural stone.

The BOLDStone system is a spray-on or trowel-on architectural finish that consists of natural granite, quartz sands, proprietary elements and acrylic binders for interior or exterior walls, floors, and more. From 40-story ultra-luxury high-rise commercial complexes to residential patios, countertops, garage floors, entryways, walkways, stairs and pool decks, BOLDStone delivers the beauty of natural stone at a fraction of the cost of real stone.

These easy-to-use, water based products are destined to be the next major breakthrough in textured acrylic finishes for the decorative concrete industry.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our Skimstone Certification Class on February 25-26, 2009.

"I thought the seminar was truly terrific. I understand now the effect that one is trying to achieve with the SkimStone product, something that didn't quite sink in right away. As always, each of the three seminars you have had are so, so informative. The first one was ColorMaker, the second was BrickForm and the Skimstone was the latest. It really does amaze me how each and every rep could answer just about each and every question right down to the most minute detail . Maria is just such a pleasure to deal with and does an outstanding job as the NJV concrete business manager. Whether it be finding info pertaining to seminars, ordering materials and supplies or anything else other than a technical question about decorative concrete she is an Ace. Manny, is an absolute wealth of information when I have had any question about one of the products he sells. Extremely detail oriented, and very patient. I really am thankful to have suppliers like you. Robert Paton , Rob Paton Landscaping, Inc."

"I just wanted to drop a note to let you know what a great time I had at the Skim Stone training. Everyone was so nice and not afraid to share information/knowledge with one another. Although, I am not in the business and just a DIYer, this is something I can definitely see myself doing if I get enough interest from doing jobs for friends and family. Again, I just wanted to thank you and Manny for such a great experience and I hope to be at another class soon. Diane "

"I’m so glad I took the Skimstone course. It was the first course I took in years, and I feel invigorated and inspired. John asked if we had any idea to improve the course and I took him seriously. (uh-oh) Here are some of my ideas:.......Frida"
