1-SET-UP AND CLIMATE CONTROL
Temperatures, Humidity and Dew Point have a significant affect on the ability of any coating to bond to the surface. Our Climate Control Trailer lets us stabilize air and surface temperatures, reduce humidity, dry out wet concrete, and eliminate problems with improper dew points. We install year round and we NEVER worry about cold, rain or snow. Also dust, sand and other contaminants are prevented from being blown onto the surface.
2-SURFACE PREPARATION
Surface preparation is the single most important factor in determining long term bonding performance of a concrete coating. At ConcreteRenewal Services we cut no corners. We have invested in the proper equipment to do all jobs right, the first time. To prepare a surface for any coating we literally remove the top layer 1/8th inch of concrete. This process removes contaminants and lets us apply our coating to a fresh clean surface.
3-PROFILED SURFACE
With any coating, the bonding strength is dependent on an open, properly profiled surface. We achieve an open surface by removing the top layer (laitance) of concrete exposing the natural porosity of concrete and achieve the proper profile (surface texture) with our grinding machines...
4-PRODUCT APPLICATION - BASE COAT
Measurements are double checked as we need an exact square footage to mix the proper amount of resin. Mixed in 3 gallon batches, we mix and spread several batches to cover the floor. Spreading out the mixed resin and finishing with backrolling it in order to make sure it is even and consistent.
5-PRODUCT APPLICATION QUARTZ AGGREGATE
Unique to our application is the way we broadcast the quartz aggregate into the base layer of resin. While the resin is still in it's liquid state, we walk on the surface with spiked shoes as we start our quartz blowing machine. This machine will broadcast 700-800 pounds of quartz into the resin in a very consistant way. This control is the key to a consistant finish when the top coat gets applied.
