MICRO-FINISH Pre-Mixed Overlay: Originally designed as surface restoration product and an answer to garage and warehouse floor resurfacing where overlaying with just THIN-FINISH left a slight grainy surface instead of the desired steel trowel type finish. MICROFINISH was designed to create an ultra smooth finish on existing concrete substrates. Unlike the other Pre-Mixed Overlays, MICRO-FINISH is not an overlay but more of a filler for filling in the void around the grain of silica quartz from THIN-FINISH. One area of use that we did not anticipate but has turned out to be where most MICRO-FINISH is used is by acid stain flooring contractors. Rather than simply applying an acid or chemical stain directly to concrete which in many cases are not without blatant flaws, contractors are using MICRO-FINISH to create a fresh, clean, palete to apply a stain to. MICROFINISH can be integrally colored to create a concrete burnt finish or can be stained to create a wide array of colors.
CHEM-STONE Reactive Stain: Over the past 10 years, acid chemical stains have became a staple coloring method for concrete surfaces and floors. Originating from various metallic salt by products, CHEM-STONE Reactive Stain has colored millions of square feet of concrete since its inception. Unlike other stains or paints, CHEM-STONE is not a coating at all but rather chemically reacts with the concrete to create the various colors as a permanent finish. Available in 8 standard colors, CHEM-STONE color hues vary depending on concrete composition, weather and product dilution. The end result of concrete colored with CHEM-STONE is typically different from job to job due to the old world effect that it uniquely creates on concrete.
REFLECTOR Enhancer: Words cannot describe the unique coloring capability of REFECTOR Enhancer. Designed for use in virtually any clear sealer, REFLECTOR Enhancer brings a wide array of shiny, metallic color variations.
PORTION CONTROL COLORANT: In this day and age, every decorative concrete overlay company offer a colorant product for pigmenting their materials but ours is quite a different pigmenting systems. Unlike other colorants, PORTION CONTROL COLORANT is not simply an oxide based colorant that increases efflouresence or alkali issues. Instead, it is manufactured from 100% synthetic pigments to make it easy to use and create color consistency every time. PORTION CONTROL COLORANT is also extremely versatile, being the coloring product for the Pre-Mixed Overlays such as THIN-FINISH, TEXTURE-PAVE and MICRO-FINISH but it is also for pigmenting ULTRA-STONE Antiquing Stain. The packing system for PORTION CONTROL COLORANT is also quite unique. Packaged in quart bottles with a built in measuring device right on the bottle, PORTION CONTROL COLORANT is available in just ten different bottled colors. Each bottle contains a dispensing chart right on the label allowing each bottle to create 3 completely different colors for a total of 30 available colors.
CSS-V EMULSION: With all of the regulations in certain markets pertaining to VOC restrictions, CSS-V EMULSION is the perfect alternative to CSS EMULSION. Consisting of the same acrylic and MMA components but exempt solvents, CSS-V EMULSION has a VOC content less than 150 g/l. Due to the fact that CSS-V EMULSION is engineered to be VOC compliant, solids reduction is not required or even suggested. CSS-V EMULSION already contains an exempt workable solvent providing installers with 26% solids. WCS EMULSION: In a perfect world, water-borne sealer technology would be equally as durable as solvent-borne but we don't live in that perfect world yet. However, in cases where solvent products absolutely cannot be used do to safety or flammability concerns WCS EMULSION is a idea sealer for general everyday, light traffic use. Dont just consider WCS EMULSION any old water-borne sealer Conventional water-borne sealer simply dissolve an acrylic resin into water. WCS-EMULSION actual has a water reducing, exempt solvent to carrier a higher and stronger solids content providing a higher level of strength and durability compared to other water-borner sealers.
SPARTIC-ALL RM: Experienced installers know that their time and labor is always their highest cost of jobs and SPARTIC-ALL RM is engineered to literally cut that time in half or more. Originally developed as a super fast cure coating for steel structures such as bridges and sky scrappers, polyaspartic ester coatings provided a cured surface in just a few hours instead of days. SPARTIC-ALL RM is based off of the same technology but formulated for use as a fast cure floor coating. SPARTIC-ALL RM is ideal for use as a clear protective coating for interior concrete or decorative concrete overlay flooring as well as an industrial coating where time is critical. SPARTIC-ALL RM a perfect replacement and time saver for vinyl flake floors and colored quartz flooring applications providing the installer with a completed floor in just a few hours and not several days. Imagine starting a job in the morning, finishing the job the same day and allowing your customer to walk and drive on the finish that night or the next day? It is possible with SPARTIC-ALL RM.
