Decosup Inc. is hosting its 1st Annual OPEN FORUM CONFERENCE for Contractors in Dallas on December 8-9 , 2005.

Bill Shorey AKA "The Colorman" is the Decorative Concrete guru at Spec West in Sacramento, CA. He has been a fixture in the decorative concrete world for many years and has shared many of his experiences with us in the Decorative Concrete Forums. Here Bill talks about how to match colors from pictures, a common dilemma for decorative concrete contractors.
Lindy Ausburne, the technical service manager for Golden Look International in Euless Texas has been an industry leader for a long time. A frequent visitor and collaborator on the Decorative Concrete Forums she is always happy to share her wealth of knowledge with anyone who needs it. In this edition of The Innovator Lindy writes about problems related to moisture in concrete and how to solve them.
Art Pinto, the president of Decosup Inc. has been part of the decorative concrete industry for over twenty years. He has vast hands on experience both in the installation and manufacturing aspects of the business. In this article he talks in depth about one of the fastest growing segments of the decorative concrete market: Overlays, what is an overlay? what is it made of? what can I use it on? This questions and many more are answered right here.
New VOC compliant sealers from Decosup Inc. With VOC rules getting tougher and tougher, and with states like California and New York operating under even more stringent VOC regulations than the federal standard, it has become a necessity to find new alternatives. Water base sealers are a popular choice as replacement for solvent base, but the technology is not quite there yet. Solvent base still greatly outperforms water base especially in decorative concrete applications. Decosup Inc. has taken the initiative to invest time and resources to develop a variety of solvent base products that meet VOC regulations throughout the country including Acrylic, Polyurethane and Cure & Seals.
Details Decorative Concrete Inc. is a relatively new company. It was started two years ago by the husband and wife team of David and Melissa Cuthbert of New Braunfeld, Texas. After attending a Decosup seminar they were convinced that they could make it as decorative concrete contractors and be successful. In a very short span they have made tremendous strides and have ventured far into the decorative concrete realm. Learn more about them at our December conference as Melissa is one of our featured speakers.
