Method/Preparation


We prepared the existing floor surface by mechanically grinding using an Innovatech grinding machine with a vacuum attachment to minimize dust. This remote controlled machine provides minimal load and no vibration for the operator while the grinding capacity of the number of square metres per hour increases dramatically

Method/Preparation


The existing surface had numerous layers of old paint, all of this needed to be removed by grinding so that we could achieve the desired finish to the clients satisfaciton. Before grinding commenced our team corderned off the area, this ensured that the floor avoids contamination, in addition to ensuring the safety of the passing workers.

Application/Installation


Following the preparation, our team would then apply a two-pack epoxy primer for oil contaminated substrates by the use of roller and brush. Next we looked to apply Resdev Deckmaster HFS ID, a three-component polurethane system which is designed for high friction surfaces, with the highest order of durability, impact, abrasion and chemical resistance to suit the clients needs.
