October's 2 Day Workshop - Advanced Acid Stain & Design Was a Great Success, Next Class Scheduled for Dec 16-17, 2010.
Here are what some of our attendees had to say about the class: "I was told to bring my brain with me as it was going to be quite an intense class. You weren't kidding! But I couldn't be happier about spending the time and money to come down and attend. We covered so much ground in just two days, stamping, staining, cutting, overlays, coating & sealing and the best part was only about an hour a day was spent in the conference room while the rest was spent out on the factory floor "DOING" what we came to learn. While I know I haven't committed most of it to memory (there was just so much data), seeing and taking part in the multitude of demos is so much more valuable than reading a script or listening to a lecture. And I know Matt and John will be there to fill in the blanks for me when it comes time to put the lessons into action. A great class. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to broaden their horizons in concrete treatment." Joe Spair "Just completed the 2 day course last week.I have been to several other companies courses,and they all fail in comparison both in content and value.Matthew is an outstanding instructor.Anyone who has not looked into taking this course should do so.I have been doing coatings and stains etc. for 3 years now,but I picked up alot of great tips from this class." Michael Lucas Next Class: December 16-17, 2010
