Methods of Concrete Resurfacing
One of the best and affordable methods of Concrete Resurfacing is Steel Shot-blasting. A tried and true method used to properly prepare a surface for optimal bonding of a new flooring or coating. Steel shot (small steel balls) blasts the surface at a high velocity to remove contamination or laitance (soft concrete).
Benefits of shot blasting?
- Environmentally friendly, eliminating the need for harsh chemicals.
- Efficient disposal of dust.
- Can be used on indoor and outdoor surfaces.
- Blast pattern accuracy and a wide level of abrasives selection.
Shot-blasting concrete remains the surface preparation of choice for any flooring contractor concerned about bonding a coating to a concrete floor surface. Surface preparation is an important step prior to the installation of either concrete or epoxy overlays. This method can profile concrete and asphalt for road reconstruction.
