Here is the dilemma, you are a homeowner or property
owner and although your home or business is in great
shape, your concrete is more than showing it's age.
Perhaps the surface of the concrete is pitted or
flaking. Maybe it has stains on it from food or
oil. Either way, tearing out and replacing it just
isn't and option so you just have to live with it.
This is where our products can help. Our overlay
systems are designed first and foremost as "surface
restoration" products. Sure there are lots
of aesthetic options with our products but if they
cannot perform as a permanent finish, they are useless.
Take a look at the two photos below. The first
one is a before shot of a pool deck in a Marriott
hotel. You can see that the concrete is pitted,
flaking and just plain ugly and of course management
wasn't happy with it. They had tried painting the
concrete which obviously flaked off in no time.
They had a typical sprayed on acrylic resurfacing
product applied which started peeling off in less
than a year. They even tried a rubberized type coating
which didn't peel off as quickly as the sprayed
on acrylic resurfacing product but because it did
not allow vapor transmission to escape, the moisture
under the rubberized coating began to rot and smell
like rotten eggs.
The second photo shows the completed concrete pool
deck with accent colors to match the hotel itself.
The pictures below consists of 1 coat of THIN-FINISH™
to create the base coat. Then another coating of
THIN-FINISH™ that is applied with a typical
drywall type hopper gun. Color is added to the different
applications using PORTION CONTROL COLORANT™.
Once that has dried overnight, the finish is coated
with 2 coats of CSS Emulsion to add protection and
a beautiful gloss finish.
