Knoxville, TN -- In an ongoing effort to provide additional in-depth technical knowledge and support to people involved in the surface preparation business, Braxton-Bragg LLC will be offering training classes on concrete grinding and polishing. The first seminar will take place on November 19 to 20, 2009. This training is designed to enhance the participant's knowledge and understanding of the entire concrete polishing process.

This two-day course, taught by experts from Superabrasive, covers: 
   •Understanding the overall concrete grinding and polishing process
   •Selecting the right tooling, equipment and chemicals for the job
   •In-depth explanation of the surface preparation and the concrete polishing processes
   •Preparing competitive marketing and bidding proposals


The seminar fee includes: 
   •All training materials
   •Demonstrations and a full day of hands-on training
   •Lunches and two nights lodging; discounted dining will also be available for attendees
 
The location: Braxton-Bragg LLC, 4100 Appalachian Way, Knoxville, TN.
The cost: $470 per person.

Purchasing a complete set of floor polishing equipment from Braxton-Bragg will not only provide customers with a new business, it will allow them a total refund of the cost of one attendee to the seminar.

For more information about this seminar, contact Kurt Alexander at 800-575-4401, ext. 235.


New Product

Braxton-Bragg has also introduced a new product. The new Hercules® Universal Sink Harness is produced exclusively for Braxton-Bragg, and it can reduce undermount sink installation to minutes. Since there is no need for temporary bracing to hold caulk or adhesive while it dries, it also means there is no costly return visit, saving the installer time and money. Instead of fastening directly to expensive stone countertops, the Universal Sink Harness Kit fastens to the cabinet itself, so the weight is supported by the cabinet instead of by the weakest part of the countertop: the sink cutout. This system will work with any undermount sink shape -- single or double bowl, cast iron, steel or ceramic -- so there is no need to stock more than one type of installation product. The installer can even use the Universal Sink Harness to repair other failed sink installations.

"This is going to be one of the hot new products of 2010," said Rich Hassert, CEO of Braxton-Bragg LLC. "It will revolutionize the industry and probably make all other methods obsolete. We are selling it for $5 and the competitive products are about $30. I have seen a sink installation done with this product and it only took five minutes."

Braxton-Bragg is offering to send customers one complete kit for free. Contact a Braxton-Bragg sales representative for more information. And check out the Universal Sink Harness demo at the company's new Web site: www.braxtonbragg.com.
