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.
