I've got a project wanting to use coated foam fabrications, and I'm looking for keys to success, problems to guard against, and possibly an example spec. For that matter, is there any kind of standard or association that includes this class of products in its purview? The product we're likely to use is Veristone, which seems to have the advantage of completely coating the foam core of the trim or cornice, rather than leaving the back exposed. They also can make the large sizes we need for belly bands and cornices, and are comparatively local to the project at hand, which is in Silicon Valley. Any experience you can share on the general class of products or the specific company would be most welcome! J.
