When installing new floors, it’s important to everyone that it goes well. The contractor, the customer, and the workers are all invested in a smooth installation. One of the biggest issues when installing floors is mixing the resin. The mixing ratio is very important, but is often overlooked, causing major mixing mistakes.
Say a contractor was installing floors in a school. Each type of room required different types of flooring, and thus different mixing ratios. The bathroom floors required 2:1, the halls 3:1, and the classrooms 3:1. In the rush to complete all the floors on time, the contractor became confused with the various mixing ratios. After mixing gallons of the expensive resin for each room, the team realized it had been created incorrectly. None of the resins had been mixed with the correct mixing ratio, resulting in an unusable product.
When there are mixing mistakes, the materials do not bond correctly and creates a weak surface that does not stand up over time. Luckily they realized before installing the floors, otherwise it would have resulted in a costly and long removal and re-installation process.
If this particular contractor had used V-8 Hybrid floors, none of this would have been an issue. All of these floors, whether quartz, mica, or vinyl chip, have a 1:1 mixing ratio. This makes the resins easier to mix and install, without any confusion. There may be different types of floors for every room in the school, but each has the same mixing ratio, making it easier for everyone involved.
Floors without a 1:1 ratio require careful measuring and a much larger margin of error. One mixing mistake can create gallons of wasted product – and hours of wasted time. V-8 Hybrid floors 1:1 mixing ratio eliminates this challenge, resulting in an easy installation every time.
