Concrete Floor Preparation, Grinding, Shot Blasting, Crack Repairs
Improperly prepared surfaces may result in lower coating integrity and service
life. Close to 80% of all coating failures can be attributed to poor surface
preparation, which affects coating adhesion.
Proper surface preparation requires the following: Inspection of the concrete,
removal and replacement of non-durable concrete, refinement of the concrete
surface, establishment of surface profile and repair of surface irregularities.
To guarantee adhesion of the coating to the substrate and prolong the service
life of the coating system, select and apply the proper surface preparation
technique; concrete grinding, shot blasting and scrapping are the most practical
concrete preparation systems on the market.
