Diamond Grinding = Proper Coating Adhesion
When it comes time to re-do your flooring, you want it done right. For beautiful, long-lasting flooring, proper preparation is vital. However, it is often the step that is skimped on or skipped altogether by inexperienced, or improperly trained installers.
Over time, regular wear and tear on your flooring can result in visible faults, wear patterns, uneven areas, scratches, and abrasions. And when a new coating is applied to an old surface, you run the risk of a floor coating failure.
Previous floor coatings and sealers, oil, grease, dirt, and even residue from cleaning agents can also prevent floor coatings from forming a strong bond with the concrete substrate. Blistering, bubbling, lifting, and peeling are all signs of an improperly bonded floor.
Diamond grinding prevents these problems.
In most cases, diamond grinding is the best option to quickly remove these types of substances from flooring surfaces. It is also the most effective way to level flooring and correct irregularities in concrete surfaces.
Finally, diamond grinding can gently abrade existing floor coatings, enhancing surface texture and friction and allowing for maximum adhesion of new floor coatings.
Unfortunately, older diamond grinding apparatus can be slow and leave a dusty mess, which is why cut-rate contractors often skip this important flooring preparation step.
When a properly trained and equipped V-8 High-Performance Floors Installer does your diamond grinding, it can be virtually a dust-free process because our high-performance diamond grinding machines that we sell have self-cleaning vacuum attachments.
In addition to preventing a mess, this dust containment system is designed in order to avoid dust from circulating in the air as well.
The most significant advantage to diamond grinding, however, is it removes contaminants from concrete surfaces while simultaneously leveling those surfaces.
In the long run, your new V-8 High-Performance floor coating will bond much more efficiently and will last much longer with a surface that is free of contaminants and adequately prepared. For all your diamond grinding and flooring needs, call V-8 High-Performance Floors today.
