Technical Documents

What areas of my facility are appropriate for this system?

Kitchens, bakeries, food processing, animal research, chemical storage rooms, and battery charging areas.

What are the limitations of the system?

Limited only by high levels of MVT (Moisture Vapor Transition).  May be used with a Moisture Mitigating Primer when needed.  When a great deal of Thermal Shock resistance is needed, please refer to Neocrete.

How can this system be used for recoating existing flooring systems?

May be applied over sound, high performance coating systems by sanding/abrading and patching any holes/cracks.

How long will the system last with daily use?

Three to five years, depending upon chosen system and utilizing appropriate aggregates.

What are the general recommendations for applying this system?

Surface profile of CSP3, squeegee/backroll and trowel, apply within system guidelines for each step.
