What to Know
Blastract Concrete Floor Prep: Explained
Blastrac is known for its innovative surface preparation equipment.
Our machines use high-pressure air and abrasive materials to clean, profile, and prepare various surfaces, including concrete floors. This process removes contaminants like old coatings, adhesives, and surface irregularities, creating a clean, textured surface ideal for applying new coatings. Blastrac offers different methods like shot blasting, diamond grinding, and scarifying, each tailored to specific surface preparation needs.
The shot blasting method uses a high-pressure stream of abrasive media, such as steel shot, to remove contaminants and create a textured surface. It’s ideal for improving surface profile and adhesion for coatings.
Diamond grinding employs diamond-tipped tools to grind and polish concrete surfaces. This technique is effective for removing coatings, leveling uneven surfaces, and achieving a smooth, polished finish.
Scarifying involves using a machine with rotating drums equipped with carbide or diamond teeth to remove the surface layer of concrete. This method is often used to improve surface profile and remove contaminants.
We respond to emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Our Process
Environmentally Friendly Concrete Floor Installation
Surface Preparation
The concrete floor is initially cleaned to remove any loose debris or contaminants. This ensures optimal adhesion for the subsequent preparation process.
Profile Creation
Using specialized Blastrac equipment, the concrete surface is profiled to create a textured surface. This profile enhances the mechanical bond between the concrete and the applied coating.
Contaminant Removal
The Blastrac process effectively removes any existing coatings, adhesives, or other contaminants that may hinder the performance of the new flooring system.
Final Inspection
Once the preparation is complete, a thorough inspection is conducted to verify that the surface is clean, dry, and properly profiled. This ensures optimal results for the applied coating.
