With the new LULL "400":
"My labor saving has been more than $150 per fireplace flue..."
Contractor, Shawnee, Kansas
If the new Lull "400" can save $150 per flue, think what it can save you in other masonry, roofing or general construction costs! The only way to find out is to ask for a demonstration-or talk to someone who knows, like Joe Peterson. Here's what he said: "Since buying the 400 Lull for my Pinebrook Apartments job, my labor saving has been more than $150.00 per fireplace flue and no loss of time because of mud. They truly pay their own way."
Ask your dealer for a demonstration and check these features:

matrix manufactured by H. B. Fuller Co., St. Paul, Minn.
The decision to use a manually-applied surfacing material rather than preformed panels or concrete wall sections was based on the material's aesthetics, corrosion resistance, ease of application and the elimination of caulking and re-caulking every two years.
Richard Vanderventer, representing the owners, estimated that biannual recaulking would have cost approximately $14,000. In addition, he said, the Tuff-Lite material reduced the cost of installation because of the simple application techniques required.
