That was 3 years ago and other than it needs cleaned and resealed it is great. I dont know wny ec wouldnt market this because it really is really good.

Most of us work hard to remove oil/grease stains before overlays, so overlaying a surface that is all PETROLEUM products defies logic. That being said, I have done the overlay systems on wood counter tops and such. That is a different animal. 10,000 sq ft of exterior is way to unstable to put your name on.
