What is Weathered StoneT?
Weathered StoneT is produced on a canvas backing; the texture is primarily plaster,
and has 15% additives for strength and durability. The product is then cut, cracked,
and colored by hand. Weathered StoneT has 22 standard colors, and custom colors are
available. The product is manufactured in pre-cut sizes, and can easily be cut down
to any size or shape.
Weathered Stone'sT Installation Process:
Weathered StoneT becomes pliable during the installation process, and dries after
applied to a solid surface. The result is a sheet of stone that can be molded, bent
and shaped around any interior surface. All adhesives are water based, making
installation simple and time efficient. The final step of grouting the seams gives
the installed product added depth and texture.
Can Weathered StoneT Be Repaired?
Weathered Stone'sT specially formulated grout has a colorant in it that will repair
any small nicks or dings in the product. The grout is non-caustic, and will simply
wipe on the damaged Weathered StoneT, and then can be wiped back off, instantly
repairing any dings or nicks in the product.
Weathered StoneT-the Company
Sean Howard, President and inventor of Weathered StoneT, traveled the country
installing commercial wall coverings and hand painting faux finishes. Howard merged
wall coverings and faux finish techniques to create Weathered StoneT. Weathered
StoneT has been featured in multiple news publications as well as many showcase and
parade homes.
