Resurfacing Basics
This is our complete level 101 curriculum and re-creates our three day seminar. It
can easily compare to similar basic training programs daunted by reputed
manufacturers and distributors. Our intent here is to simplify the steps, combined
them into easily replicable formats, allowing you to have a generic reference point,
and allow you to visualize the applications repetitively in order to fully grasp the
concepts and methodology of repairing and resurfacing concrete at the basic (and
most prolific) level. The material allows you to teach and visualize the work with new
or apprentice employees, and save thousands on costly travel and lodging expenses,
as well as hands on training fees. The illustrations and written instructions delineate
in detail the steps to setup your job site, stabilize your substrate, repair and patch
surface defects, and apply a new broom finish or knockdown finish texture with the
recommended and time tested sealers. These are the basics, and the tasks we most
often perform. We have hundreds of application experience to justify the methods of
application taught in all of our classes and replicated on our training manuals. This
information is worth thousands of dollars of hands on training, and it can be yours

Ergonomics of Slip Resistance
The many misconceptions of adding materials to increase slip resistance under wet
conditions is the reason for this manual. It is very important to understand the
ergonomics of slip resistance for both Applicators and Consumers alike. This is
especially true in relation to Concrete Resurfacing. The surface structure of a stable
(or stabilized) concrete surface is now modified with an overlay. As an applicator,
you can be directly responsible for slip and fall accidents. What should you do to
protect yourself? More importantly, what can be done to protect the consumer and
pedestrians walking on a resurfaced area? What should you use? When and how
should it be applied? What are the most efficient products available, and where can
you buy them? What are the best methods of application? All of these questions and
application techniques are revealed in our manual. Order your copy today, and finish
your next job with confidence and increased consumer safety. ONLY $ 9.95 Available NOW
