The Green Building Products Announces Impact Testing on PlasterMax and StuccoMax

Samples of PlasterMax and StuccoMax, all samples were hardened for 7 days. The 4.3 and 11 oz mesh samples were as close to 1/8" thickness.  The 15 oz mesh and 20 oz mesh range from 3/16" to 1/4".  Results
were as expected, the winner in the impact test was 11 oz! No need to purchase a heavier mesh.  The testing clearly shows that the machine ran out of weights to put any force against the samples! We knew the material was abuse resistant as it was developed to be hurricaine resistant and has even stopped bullets.   http://www.TheGreenBuildingProductsStore.com/plastermaxhtml
