Prep Floor Surface
- Sanding is necessary to remove any existing coatings, sealers, or surface contaminants on the concrete surface before applying a polyaspartic coating.
- Sanding creates a slightly rough surface that promotes adhesion between the polyaspartic coating and the concrete surface.
- Crack filling is necessary to fill any cracks or joints in the concrete floor to ensure a smooth and even surface for the polyaspartic coating.
- Specialized crack fillers are designed to expand and contract with the concrete as it undergoes temperature changes to prevent cracking or separation over time.
- For large cracks or areas that are uneven, a self-leveling underlayment may be required to create a smooth, even surface before applying the polyaspartic coating.
- In some cases, it may be necessary to install a moisture barrier to prevent moisture from seeping through the concrete and affecting the polyaspartic coating. This is especially important if the concrete floor is located in a basement or on the ground floor of a building.
- Proper preparation of the concrete surface, including crack filling and sanding, is crucial to ensure a successful and long-lasting polyaspartic floor installation.
