I have been using Sculpt Nouveau products for several years. They are always amazing. In my professional opinion, there is NO better product line. I teach Welding/Metal Sculpture at a local Art/Design College here in Los Angeles, and went to one of Ron Young’s(proprietor) patina workshops — it was one of the most valuable workshops I have ever attended, since then I have been a convert … One of the *really* cool things about this organization is that they are always at the other end of the phone, when ever I have had a question, or issue technical or otherwise they are ALWAYS willing to take the time to make sure I am getting the right product! Another really cool thing is… generally when they have a new product line they stick in a free sample of it in to my order… also, when I have mentioned I was curious about a product they have put in a little sample of it in my next order… I would love to think they just do this for me cuz, I’m special, but many of my students mention they do the same for them… This is the kind of company that I always LOVE doing business with… they feel like family — Not some massive corporate Magilla that sees only the bottom line and really can’t be bothered with the human element.
