Press Release Summary: If you’re just starting out in the business take the class and get a foundation it will save you a ton of money from buying unnecessary equipment and time on the job.

Press Release Body: Josveek Huligar, natural stone restoration expert, known for his Stone Restoration “Boot camp” class has expanded the curriculum to floor restoration.

Huligar the founder of the Natural Stone Restoration Alliance, an association of independent stone restoration professionals has conducted monthly classes on the art of detailed restoration of natural stone countertops.

The weekend classes are described by Mr. Huligar as "A true “hands-on” experience. No seats. No stories. No sales pitch. Each student has the opportunity to perform multiple repairs, honing and the highly coveted art of top-polishing” Huligar adds, “For the counter top class the student also receives a complete set of tools to perform advance surface repairs.”

The addition of a floor restoration class seemed to be the logical next step for the rigorous weekend “boot camp”

“The class is described as a three day, 9 to 5, training session” former student Steve Patrick laughs, “It’s more like you’re finished when you’ve completed the task successfully, exactly as it is in the real world. There are no time limits to the class.”

Because of the many requests for Mr. Huligar to add the floor class, Huligar finally relented and had his first “Hit the Floor” restoration class in May. It seems the class was a "hit”. Students from New Zealand, Ireland and Hawaii as well as from the mainland of the U.S. gathered to learn from the stone restoration expert. From the beginners to the seasoned professionals, the class had its impact.

Al Shulze of WeDoFloors in Fl responded, “I can honestly say just learning Huligar’s floor method, will cut my time in half. If you’re just starting out in the business take the class and get a foundation it will save you a ton of money from buying unnecessary equipment and time on the job.”

Dave Wilson of Seam- Master StoneCare CA. adds "Huligar showed me how to push the limits with heat and popping a shine. It really opened me up to perfecting my floor process. I went to the class hoping to learn a few things and was not disappointed."

“Great class” said Paul Klees from Bonstone. “I received some valuable hands-on training with respect to surface polishing and repair techniques. It was amazing to see the use of different diamonds, pressure and the little amount of water needed to achieve a nice polish. I will definitely attend another class to brush up on my skills.”

Ultimately the “boot camp” is for those who have a real interest in learning the stone restoration trade or to advance their existing skills. From the art of restoring counter tops to floors, this class has it covered.
