Integrity Coatings Australia - quality refinishing products

<h3 align="center"><font COLOR="GREEN">COMPANY INFORMATION</font></h3> <hr> <b> Gary McConnell, with Twenty- Five years of business experience saw the need, and indeed, the opportunity to supply purpose designed and quality coatings to the fledging Refinishing Industry in Australia and New Zealand.<P> During Gary's many months of research he became increasingly aware of the lack of consumer knowledge and awareness about an industry that simply saved consumers hundreds of dollars, whilst not compromising on quality or durability.<P> Gary's extensive research continually threw up the name of Integrity Refinishing Coatings, situated in Dallas, Texas as the leading researcher, manufacturer and training provider of resurfacing products. Many months of dialogue and visits to Texas resulted in the birth of Integrity Coatings Australia Pty Ltd as the exclusive Australian and New Zealand distributor of Integrity Refinishing Coatings.<P> To hone his skills and knowledge, Gary took a hands- on approach, studying and working with refinishing contractors in the USA and Asia. He will continue to take this approach to ensure that the very latest techniques and procedures are available to his customers.<P> Gary runs his own very successful refinishing business in Brisbane titled 'Multi-Surface Restorations', thus giving him the experience and knowledge to pass on to others wishing to enter this unique, fast growing and extremely profitable industry.<P> Gary is committed to promoting the Refinishing Industry in Australia and New Zealand to create the long overdue awareness of an industry that saves consumers time, expense and inconvenience. To achieve this aim, Gary is actively looking for applicators throughout Australia and New Zealand who are committed to the highest quality of workmanship, a desire to own their own profitable business or expand on their existing business, a high work ethic and to providing their customers with value for money.<P> </b> <h3 align="center"><font COLOR="GREEN">FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS</font></h3> <hr> <b><font COLOR="GREEN"> <p>What makes your product better than others?<br> </font>It is incredibly durable with a high gloss finish. It is UV resistance, <font COLOR="RED">ISOCYANATE FREE</font>, and the fastest drying in Industry. Touch dry in 3-5 minutes.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">Why should I consider refinishing rather than replacement?<br> </font>First of all, to replace something you MUST first tear out the old items. When considering the cost of replacement you must consider tear out, cost of replacement item, labor for installation, not to mention the mess and time it will take. For example, normal costs for renovating a bathroom ranges from $3,000 to $6,000 and will usually take one and a half to two weeks to complete. Refinishing takes less than one - two days. To replace a kitchen costs up to $15,000. Refinishing takes 2 - 3 days and will save up to 70% vs. replacement. </p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">What bathroom and kitchen surfaces can be refinished?<br> </font>Our EP-Acrylic refinishing system works beautifully on: bathtubs, sinks, shower enclosures, vanity units, ceramic tiles, kitchen benchtops & cabinets, clawfoot bathtubs, oven doors, refrigerators, dishwashers, cultured marble counter tops and various fiberglass, acrylic and laminated surfaces.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">How are the coatings applied?<br> </font>These coating are two part coatings, base and catalyst, and are best applied using a HVLP (high velocity-low pressure) spray equipment. These coatings do not produce their best result when sprayed through conventional spray equipment.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">Will my refinished surface look painted?<br> </font>Definitely NOT. You probably will not be able to tell the difference. Refinishing will make that old chipped, stained, or color-dated item look "New" again.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">What is EP-Acrylic?<br> </font>EP-Acrylic is a high performance acrylic polymer coating specifically designed for refinishing porcelain, fiberglass, Formica, and other surfaces with a high gloss, long-lasting, hard finish. EP-Acrylic has been on the market for over 10 years and is the coating of choice of refinishers worldwide. </p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">How long will it take?<br> </font>One of the key benefits of refinishing is that it can usually be completed in less than one day. Our refinished bathtubs can be used in 24 hours and are fully cured in 48 hours. </p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">How do I clean and maintain my refinished fixture?<br> </font>We recommend Miracle Cleaner, a specially designed cleaner made for the refinished fixtures. This strong but non-abrasive cleaner will safely keep your fixture clean without dulling the gloss like any abrasive cleaner will do.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">What if my bathtub or counter top is damaged?<br> </font>Small chips and cracks can be repaired during the cleaning and preparation stage of refinishing. Your technician will inform you if the chip or cracks cannot be repaired prior to refinishing your fixture.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">How long will it last?<br> </font>A bathroom or kitchen fixture refinished with EP-Acrylic should easily last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care and maintenance. Again, we recommend using Miracle Cleaner for maintaining your refinished surface.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">What kind of support system do you have?<br> </font>A call to any of the companies using our product will quickly tell you that our support system is second to none. Our refinishers work together often, and share information.</p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">Is there much profit to be made in this industry?<br> </font>The potential in this industry is just incredible!

With proper training, and some marketing savvy, there is almost unlimited potential in the resurfacing industry. </p> <p><b><font COLOR="GREEN">How do I get started?<br> </font>Call 07 32994022 and sign up for our refinishing training school.
