Smith & Co

SMITH'S® weather-resistant technology cures premature failure of wood and its protective paint or varnish.

The original GENUINE Smith brand of 
wood restoration products:
- Invented by Steve Smith and manufactured by Smith & Co.
- Steve Smith in 1972 invented this modern technology that restores deteriorated wood.  The entire scientific foundation is shown at www.woodrestoration.com

In 1974 Steve Smith developed the first epoxy adhesive to reliably bond oily hardwoods.  His original Tropical Hardwood Epoxy and a popular expanded family of epoxy products are used today by not only individual boat-builders, but furniture restorers, specialty wood millworks, manufacturers of archery bows, baseball bats, speaker cabinets and many other high-performance wood products.

In 1976, studying a seventy-year-old chemistry text, Steve Smith found some lost-technology in the field of concrete sealers.  This led to the introduction of Smith's Permanent Concrete Sealer.  In the next few years, he designed a permanent-bonding technology for cement and stucco that was solvent-free, odor-free and green-as-you-can-get.  Doing the job once eliminates all the environmental pollution of coming back again and again to do the job over again.


The first-ever approval by the Swedish government for such a product was given in 1992.
 Those products are now brought together under the Permanetrix™ brand of long-lasting bonding primers and sealers for mineral surfaces.
