“I was so intrigued by the comments of the previous attendees of Maurizio classes on stone restoration that I decided to go to one myself. (I’ve been to two “products oriented” seminars in the past that I prefer not to mention). Starting from the end, I feel that it’s the best $800 I ever spent in my life! When it comes to stone that guy is not human!! He was able to device ways of refinishing even the most difficult stones to make it look like a child play! The training floor he has set up is a total nightmare! Some 300 square feet of stone tiles including black granite mixed with white marble, green marble mixed with granite and marble, black marble mixed with pure white marble. Everything difficult is in that floor!! Yet, the way he was able to handle the whole thing was absolutely amazing!
One of the things he said was: “It’s relatively easy to use a computer to process words nowadays. Think how much more difficult it was using a type-writer a few years back! But think for a minute how complicated it must have been for all those software designers to make it that easy!!” He did the same thing to stone refinishing! It must have cost him a fortune in invested time and studies to come up with such easy yet sound solutions! A three-day class with half a day theory, not a single sales pitch, and after that the most intensive training I could ever imagine!
The only criticism I can come up with is that perhaps he’s trying to deliver too much information in such a limited time, but I’m sure that everything will fall into place when the need arises. The passion he puts in his teaching is contagious! And he’s quite funny, too!
If anybody is serious about going into stone maintenance, that’s the way to go!”cent tiles of black marble, white thassos, emperador, travertine, botticcino and breccia. All of the tiles were polished with a buffer, a pad, his magic dust and a secret liquid that he got out of the faucet in the restroom. It took less than five minutes. All ti

 “For the last several years I have been touting the unbelievable capabilities of Maurizio's MB-12 powder polish, because I have yet to run across any stone that I was unable to bring to a factory (or better) polish. Little did I know how amazing that stuff really is. Last week I was fortunate to be Maurizio's guest at his most recent seminar. During the seminar I watched, and assisted in, the polishing of adja

les were at least factory quality. Although I was VERY impressed I tried not to let the other class attendees witness my licking of his Nike's.
AND THEN, Just when I thought I had seen everything, I watched that Italian completely level an area of Absolute Black granite and get it ready to polish using only four grits of diamond pads. His last grit was 400 resin. Unbelievably, he then polished it to a factory finish using a new polishing powder he has developed called MB-16. Lest you call me a liar or accuse me of injesting some of his MB-12 (although the colors are wonderful) I want everyone to know that I had plenty of witnesses.
In my humble opinion, I truly believe that Maurizio has developed a couple of restoration products that have the capability of revolutionizing the stone restoration trade. If you don't believe me, contact Maurizio. Knowing him, he will probably GIVE you a sample for you to try out. But, you will have to convince him that you are not an amateur.”
