Substrate Surface Preparation

As always, preparation of substrate surface prior to the application of any SuperSkinSystem material as it is extremely important to achieve proper bonding of the total system.

Concrete must be fully cured and should be cleaned with a high pressure steam cleaner combined with an alkaline detergent wash solution or secured with a sandblasting or shot-blasting procedure depending on the severity of the concrete surface condition. After surface cleaning a thorough rinsing procedure must be completed to remove residual cleaning agents. Power blow drying then natural evaporative air drying is usually a sound procedure to eliminate moisture. For patching, use our calcium carbonate filled fast-set Acrylic Modified Epoxy applied by trowel. For expansion joints, use our Joist Seal applied by hand cartridge dispensing gun. Metals must be prepared and standardly prepped to be clean and free of contaminants.
