How Exterior Mouldings Are Made

THIS IS HOW WE DO IT.

STAGE 1 - DENSE FOAMCORE
We have cut profiles as small as 1" to mouldings as large as 4' since we opened our doors in 2001. This process is completely computer controlled leaving no room for error. 

STAGE 2 - MESH
An adhesive technical mesh is applied by manually pressing it into the shape. This is done for a couple of reasons. The first and most important is that it provides a bond for the cement coating.

STAGE 3 - FIRST COAT
An extrusion process that is controlled by highly skilled operators on our coating line. First coat is generally 3/16" - 1/4" thick, completely engulfing everything except the back of the shape. 

STAGE 4 - SECOND COAT
After a 24 hour cure period, we can begin to apply a second coat to our mouldings. The final coat is strictly skimmed on, making for a smooth finish, ready to apply and paint.
