What in the heck is Permastone?


Colored and textured stucco, sometimes applied over a layer of wire lath to keep it from falling off too soon, which can be worked into an endless variety of imitation materials:  stone, brick, you name it.

Disneyland in California is all textured stucco; I suspect (never having been there, but I know their fancy hotels are EIFS) DismalWorld in FL is all EIFS (Exterior Insulation & Finish Systems), which is about the only thing worse than permastone.
