Slab Preparation is the Key!

The importance of slab preparation cannot be over emphasized. Eighty to ninety (80% - 90%) per cent of the potential for success or failure of an installation is tied to how well the surface is prepared.

Remember that the surface must be free from dust, dirt, oil, grease, and other bond breaking contaminates. A surface can be prepared and cleaned chemically or mechanically. Chemically cleaning the surface will require the use of cleaning and degreasing agents, such as Blue Nitro Cleaner or Orange Power Degreaser. A chemical etching agent may be required in some instances to give the surface a slightly rough profile in order to facilitate a stronger bond between the surface and the coating.

Mechanically preparing the surface will require the use of a sand blaster, scarifier, or shot blaster. Determining which one to use will depend on (1) what type of contaminates or surface deterioration are present on the surface, (2) how much of a profile is desired on the surface, and (3) whether the surface is indoors, outdoors, commercial or residential.

Whatever the answers may be to each of those questions, proper surface preparation is THE key to a successful installation!
