I have a little of this on our house - http://www.genstoneproducts.com/

Pretty slick, easy to work with and it looks fake; but since we have no real rocks around here, it is what we used.

If anyone has questions on it - let me know...

i like both of them for decks and it should like nice. i wonder about using them on like a currently vinyl sided chimney. certainly would be a nice upgrade. also like them for accent areas on the front of homes.

All that stuff is more expensive than what the amigo's will put stick on stone or red brick on here for.

Do you know who you are talking to? :lol:

I'm just saying homeowners don't care about the built in drainage unless they have a water problem. Visually the lick and stick is always going to look more authentic.

STOP feeding his ego tom. :roll: he already thinks he is the siding god :wink:

most of our customers are more concerned about looks too but if you can sell it b/c of its benefits it will set you apart from the banditos hanging lick and stick on anything. :thumbup:

I'm no worse than Greg and decks, the roofing god, etc.

It comes with the territory. Every roofer, sider, carpenter or whatever is the best out there.

I just happened to really be the best. :lol:

I've never been able to sell that stuff. It's alot higher than bandito's sticking on stone. Between the waste, corner's etc it really high. I'd rather use peel and stick on my own house.

I've done some the nichiha kurastone and it's high but I didn't sell it, it was spec'd.
