Agustin Ramos and Bob Brown

In May 2012, we had the opportunity to attend a training seminar that was hosted by Bobcat of the Rockies, LLC and presented by BRICKFORM.

This was our first experience seeing the Triple Hard Tools color spreader. Before the end of the first day we had decided we had to have it.We spoke with our Bobcat of the Rockies, LLC sales representative Dan Sedam (Windsor, CO) about what we needed to do to get one now. Before we left the training class on the Saturday, Dan had worked out enough of the logistics that we went home with it.

We used the color spreader on Monday on a large stamped and colored patio of over 1300 sq. ft. It worked flawlessly! The color went on more evenly, and faster than hand throwing, and to top it off we used 5-6 less buckets of powder color hardener than we anticipated.We can reach areas that we would need to use skates for in the past. Again, saving on application time. We have used the spreader on well over 20 tamped and colored patios now and we have found that we use less powder color hardener consistently. We have saved enough on color hardener over the summer to almost pay for the spreader.

Our crew loves the color spreader. With the unbearable heat we have had so far this summer our guys have been able to minimize the time they need to use dust masks, because we don’t have powder color hardener “flying” in the air all of the time. It’s also help save time and money, clean up afterward is much faster. We also spend much less time cleaning powder harder from siding, brick and stucco and the surrounding areas.
