Patrick, As Michael says, "The problems with epoxy repairs on exterior tile are significant...." I think the idea of "corrected or repaired" and "hope for the situation" would first need to be understood. We would be happy to take a look and along with some investigation, testing and integration with some other professionals into the team, we could provide the Theater with some "best-case" options. But from my vantage, that is about as far as one can propose. Please feel free to forward my contact info.

The tile had been damaged by a slipcover installation. When cover was removed the tiles were repaired and I think may have had an epoxy or other coating. Now this repair job is failing. Small thin wafers of the brittle coating are coming off. She is looking for direction and assistance to have situation this corrected / repaired. Google Madison theater click on the place page. Good photo of the problem there. Is there any hope for the situation? If so who might be up to it? Thanks for any direction.
