The Problem: Wear, Contamination & Poor Epoxy Adhesion in Concrete Floors
Concrete floors in industrial, commercial, and high-traffic environments are exposed to abrasion, chemical spills, and heavy loads, leading to surface wear, contamination, and coating failures. Without proper treatment, floors become difficult to clean, unsafe, and costly to maintain.
The Solution: Surtreat’s Advanced Concrete Flooring Protection System
Surtreat provides a multi-step system to harden concrete, remove contaminants, and improve epoxy adhesion:
- TPS IV: Increases concrete hardness, abrasion resistance, and impact durability.
- SurCoClean: Deep-cleaning treatment that removes surface contaminants and oils.
- SurCoPrimer: Enhances substrate strength for optimal epoxy bonding.
Application Process: How to Strengthen & Protect Concrete Floors
Scenario 1: Concrete Hardening for Heavy-Duty Floors
- Clean the surface with SurCoClean to remove dirt, oil, and contaminants.
- Apply TPS IV evenly using a sprayer or roller at 100 ft² per gallon.
- Allow penetration and reapply as needed for high-strength applications.
Scenario 2: Preparing Concrete for Epoxy Coatings
- Use SurCoClean to eliminate oil, grease, and fuel contaminants.
- Pressure wash or scrub to ensure deep cleaning.
- Apply SurCoPrimer at 100 ft² per gallon to increase substrate strength.
- Allow drying time before epoxy application for best adhesion.
Scenario 3: Strengthening Weak Concrete Before Epoxy
- Clean the surface with SurCoClean to remove debris and contaminants.
- Apply SurCoPrimer to reinforce weak concrete, ensuring durability.
- Allow proper curing before applying epoxy coatings.
Results: Why Surtreat’s Flooring System Works
✅ Stronger, More Durable Concrete – TPS IV hardens floors for industrial use.
✅ Better Epoxy Adhesion – SurCoPrimer enhances bonding and prevents delamination.
✅ Long-Term Protection – Floors resist abrasion, chemical spills, and moisture damage.
✅ Reduced Maintenance Costs – Longer-lasting surfaces lower repair and replacement expenses.
