To start, we use diamond tip grinders to completely clean and prepare the concrete. Each crew carries a full range of diamond tooling so they can adapt to every type of concrete. This important step is vital in creating the proper surface for a durable bond and is a prime differentiator between our process and many other vendors in the market. After this first step, the concrete is like a sponge with a textured surface – ready to absorb and lock in the base layer of polyurea material and create a durable bond.
We test all floors for moisture content, applying a separate seal coat as needed. If more than one portion of the floor tests high, we will recommend a moisture sealer by applied to the entire floor. While this moisture sealer adds a day to our process, we will not rush a job; ensuring that your floor will stand up to the challenging weather conditions of the New Jersey area.
For any cracks, divots, or minor imperfections, we use an advanced, fast-curing polymer patching material to create a smooth surface. (Please note that we do not fill existing open expansion joints and strongly recommend that they remain in place).
We then apply a pigmented base coat of our industrial-grade polyurea to create the strongest possible bond with the exposed concrete surface. This material is 4 times stronger than typical epoxy– it is also nearly 98% more flexible which means unlike typical epoxy it will not become brittle and shift which can cause peel and lift after only a short time. While there are several alternatives currently available, our polyurea is rated at 2 times the adhesion strength over typical epoxy. After 15 years of successful installations we have not found a product that bonds better with concrete floors in the New Jersey.
While the base coat is still wet, we completely cover the floor with a full broadcast of colored PVC flakes giving the floor its dynamic pattern. The polyurea base coat holds the flakes and begins to cure via chemical reaction. A monolithic bond is formed between the polyurea and the concrete, while at the same time creating a similar bond with the PVC flake layer. This forms the lasting foundation of our system. While we have over 25 different colored flake blends in stock and ready to go, your choices are truly endless. For a small upcharge, we can custom blend flakes to create the perfect look for your garage floor.
Once cured, the excess flakes are scraped away to reveal the “orange peel” texture of the floor. Because we broadcast a thick layer of flakes on Day 1, our finished product achieves 95-98% coverage.
The final step or our process is to broadcasting slip resistant grit into the clear top coat. This grit provides additional texture to increase the safety of the surface when wet.
