Paint and Coatings Expo 2008 in Los Angeles Jan 27-30th

Coming right behind World of Concrete isd the Paint and Coatings Exposition, to be held this year in Los Angeles. Click the link to go to their page.

Some interesting programs for deck/coating contractors might include Sunday January 27th's Technical Program-"Importance of Selecting Correct Floor Coatings for Severe Service" Monday's seminars dealing with failed coatings has a program called "Infrared Thermal Imaging-An Aid To Forensic Investigations of Coating Adhesion Problems"

Back to back programs that I am interested in are the Fundamentals of Coating Concrete, Including a "Surface Preparation and Placement Techniques for Concrete Repair" and then immediatley folowing is "Moisture Evaluation & Remediation".

On Wednesday is the Concrete Architectural Coatings, Including BASF's seminar called "Why Buildings Leak"

There are also a ton of business development seminars that look good-including construction law with a seminar titled "Killer Clauses-What Subcontractors Need to Know."

Sales/marketing seminars, health and safety, union contractor programs, there's plenty to fill your days at this expo.
While not really a "deck coating" trade show, most deck coating contractors do other coating work, so there's probably something for you here.
