Performance, Profitability, Visual Effect

The most durable, multi-purpose, floor coating systems for plants and high-traffic areas!

Concrete Finishes’ coating systems are designed to protect floors from harsh environments subject to heavy traffic, including cars, trucks, tow motors, and material carts. In addition to excellent abrasion resistance, these systems offer exceptional resistance to a wide range of chemicals and solvents.

Cleaning and Maintaining a Concrete Finishes’ Flooring System

Every premise can be kept tidy with a minimal amount of work. All flooring systems are easy to clean and environment-friendly cleaning compounds can be used. A soft soap and water mixture can be applied to the floor with a mop or washing apparatus. How often the floor needs to be cleaned is dependent on the type of activity in the facility. Normally a floor should be swept and cleaned every day to once a week. With regular cleaning and maintenance, you will lower the expense of cleaning compounds and articles of consumption.

Concrete Finishes’ experienced team of floor coating specialists will identify the best system for your exact performance requirements!

Description:

Two component 100% solids epoxy coating system designed as a heavy duty re-surfacer that will fill cracks and superficial defects in concrete. In its cured state, it leaves a smooth non-porous high gloss finish that will withstand industrial chemicals, high abrasion and lift truck traffic.

Abrasion Testing:

Two component 100% solids epoxy coating system tested by an independent lab for abrasion resistance relative to four concrete floor coatings. Each coating was applied by a 5 mm pile roller in two coats to smooth concrete stones and allowed to dry cure at room temperature. Abrasion tests were conducted at two intervals, at 48 hours and at 7 days from the time of the second coat application.

Procedure:

Abrasion testing was performed on a standard Gardner-Style Scrub Tester, using diamond grit no. 220 wet abrasion paper, kept wet by periodic water spray and changed every 1000 cycles. Cycles to fail indicate the number of abrasive cycles to wear through the coating film and expose a minimum of one square inch of the concrete substrate.
