Surface Preparation

Always ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from grease and other contamination before coating.

New concrete floors

Ideally floor should be shot blasted or mechanically grinded, though as a minimum must be thoroughly cleaned and decreased, and the concrete itself must then be fully cured, sound, dry and all surface dust and particles removed.

Existing concrete floors

Thoroughly remove all dirt, oil, grease and any other contaminants on the surface, ideally by means of shot blasting or mechanical grinding. If this is not possible is must be copiously cleaned, degreased and abraded with all loose chippings and dust completely removed. If a previous coating cannot be totally removed, please speak with our technical team who will advise on carrying out a small trial area to ensure compatibility, or recommend a suitable primer for cohesion. Steel Not optimised as a primer onto steel due to product not containing any anti-corrosive components. Please speak to our team if you require an anti-corrosive product, optimised as a primer onto steel. However, if still applied direct to steel, any protection will only come from the barrier effect – in these instances, surface must be surfaces must be cleaned, dried and free from grease and other contamination before application, with the surface abraded to a minimum of ST2 (mild steel) or by means of hand and power tools. On top of existing coating (as a build coat / intermediate coat) Please speak to our technical team to understand whether product will be compatible onto any existing coating. They may recommend that you carry out a trial area or an alternative product to ensure cohesion. As a minimum surface must be thoroughly cleaned and lightly abraded.
