(#00 mirror glass loaded into Thin Finish and then polished to expose is really cool). gene ec-Indy Gene Dean Director of Training and Technical Support Elite Crete of Indiana Tel: (317) 888-4440 Fax: (866) 296-0008 Email: gene.dean@elitecrete.com

I will be doing another one for the show room soon. gene ec-Indy Gene Dean Director of Training and Technical Support Elite Crete of Indiana Tel: (317) 888-4440 Fax: (866) 296-0008 Email: gene.dean@elitecrete.com
