Grinding

Using industrial-grade grinders as well as hand-grinding tools, our Liquid Floors flooring experts efficiently prepare the concrete surface by removing old coatings, surface imperfections, and contaminants. This grinding process creates a roughened profile, ideal for the adhesion of new epoxy coatings. By ensuring the concrete is thoroughly prepped, grinding helps achieve a strong, durable, and flawless epoxy finish, preventing any issues that could compromise the floor's integrity and performance.

Why is Grinding Important?

Grinding is a crucial step in the preparation of industrial concrete floors for coating applications. It ensures that the surface is properly textured, free from old coatings and contaminants, and ready for the application of new coatings. Proper grinding improves the adhesion and performance of the coatings, resulting in a more durable and long-lasting finish.

Surface Profiling

Hand grinding and machine grinding are essential for creating the right surface profile by removing old coatings, contaminants, and imperfections. This process ensures that the concrete floor is properly prepped and ready for the application of industrial-grade coatings.

Optimizing Adhesion

Proper grinding ensures that the floor has the ideal texture to promote excellent adhesion of the coatings. By using diamond grinding techniques, we create a roughened surface that significantly improves the bond between the concrete and the coating, enhancing the overall performance and lifespan of the floor.

Ensuring a Clean Base

A clean and properly textured surface is critical for achieving a consistent and professional finish. Grinding removes old coatings, contaminants, and surface irregularities, creating an even base that allows the new coatings to be applied evenly, ensuring a high-quality appearance for the industrial floor.

Flooring Types that Require Grinding

Liquid Floors uses both hand grinding and diamond grinding in order to properly prepare and profile each floor for both Resinous Floor Coatings and Concrete Polishing. Here are a few of the flooring types that benefit from the grinding process.
