OUR CONCRETE COATING INSTALLATION PROCESS

At Premium Decorative Concrete Coatings, the installation process for our concrete coating system starts with determining the type of concrete you have, based on its hardness, moisture content, and structural condition. Each of these variables contribute to how we approach the next and most important step—concrete coating preparation.

DIAMOND GRINDING

At Premium Decorative Concrete Coatings, we utilize the best technologies, products, and that includes our equipment - diamond grinding machines. We use course grit diamonds help us achieve the required profile to ensure proper bonding. Our diamond grinders consist of rotating heads and by varying the grits and bonds used, diamond grinders can be effective on differing concrete types. Diamond grinders are especially helpful when cracks or joints are at different profiles and need to be leveled.

STEP 1 – PREPARATION

Preparation includes diamond grinding the concrete floor to the desired profile. Dust is also minimized by having the grinders hooked up to vacuum systems at all times. Equipment also meet OSHA SILICA Rules.

STEP 2 – CONCRETE REPAIR (CRACKS AND PITS)

Premium Decorative Concrete utilizes filers to fix pits and cracks before the process begins. This ensures a solid foundation for our long-term concrete coatings finish.

STEP 3 – BASECOAT

Premium Decorative Concrete Coatings uses polyaspartic polyurea base coats that are properly mixed and applied to the floor to begin the concrete coating process.

STEP 4 – BROADCASTING THE CHIP

After the basecoat application, the chip is generously broadcast by hand, providing both color and texture to the floor.

STEP 5 – SCRAPING THE CHIP

Once the basecoat is fully cured the floor is scraped and vacuumed to remove any loose chip or vertical standing flakes.

STEP 6 – TOP COAT (CLEAR)

The final step is to roll out the UV stable polyaspartic clear coat. The top coat is chemical, rust and abrasion resistant. It is also antimicrobial and antibacterial.
