This manufactured stone has this distinct advantage over natural stone: quarter-inch deep grooves cut into the back side to improve adhesion. Made with fine sand, Portland cement and natural iron oxide pigment, the product is molded to have the texture and shape of natural stone.

Available in 15 colors and five styles, these stone products are 1 to 2-1/2 inches thick, and can be applied to interior or exterior walls of masonry, frame or metal. Stones come with a 30-year guarantee.
