What are Polyaspartics/Polyurea
Polyaspartic-Polyurea
is the technology we use exclusively for our customer’s decorative
coating needs. Polyspartic-Polyurea are the main components of our
product. When mixed together and applied to concrete they form today’s
most durable, weather resistant technology - for concrete in, garage
flooring, commercial, industrial flooring, retail storefront flooring
and customer service areas. They are clear, but can also be
tinted with color pigment, added chip, or quartz media for a decorative
finish. The formula originally developed by Bayer ™ material sciences
was used for painting or coating steel and concrete and was used on
bridges, tanker ships, off shore oil rigs, and other heavy commercial
uses to prevent corrosion from salt water, weather and harsh chemicals.
The outstanding performance and long-life durability led to research and
development of today’s formulation used on concrete surfaces. In 2006,
we found that when concrete was prepared properly using “The Prep
Perfect System,” the prime seal coat would wet and absorb into the
surface like water into a sponge. The seal coat fills the capillaries
or pores and combines with the surface of the concrete floor;
permanently bonding the concrete to the coating system. This results in
no delamination failures; unlike epoxy coatings that adhere on top of
the surface like Velcro and can, and will delaminate resulting in a
failed floor. Polyspartic-polyurea if blended properly, will tolerate,
with no negative reaction, two conditions that always exist in concrete,
moisture and alkalinity. At the point of contact to the surface,
moisture is a bond-breaker and alkalinity, over time, will delaminate
and fail your decorative coated floor. This technology has solved a
three-decade old challenge of coating failure. In the past years, three
factors of success have come to the forefront in the coatings industry –
preparation, experience, and training of the applicator/contractor.
These factors will determine the success, and longevity of your coating
project.
Some of the uses are:
- Residential Garage Floors
- Industrial Concrete Surfaces
- Commercial Interiors
- Dog Kennel Floors
- Retail Storefronts
- Aircraft Hangers
