Surface preparation
- The concrete surface is abraded to remove contaminants and create a rough profile for maximum bond to the coating. This is the best done using shot blasting, diamond grinding, or power sanding.
- All cracks and holes are patched and grinded as needed.
Application
-
Basecoat & Aggregate
- The pigmented base epoxy coat is spread using a squeegee and back rolled for even thickness.
- While the base coat is still wet, the vinyl flake or quartz aggregate is broadcast into the basecoat allow to dry.
- The excess aggregate is scraped and vacuumed off.
- Marberchip receives a second base-coat and additional broadcast of chips aggregate prior to the topcoat application.
