The Challenges
The existing slab was covered in layers of old latex, which meant extensive preparation before any polishing could begin.
The finished floor also had to stand up to cars being moved and driven across it every day.
- Layers of old latex on the existing slab
- Daily vehicle movements across the floor
- Dust kept to a minimum during preparation
