TPS360 Platinum Polished Concrete

Project Overview

The largest car supermarket in Wales needed a floor that was attractive, durable and easy to clean.

With cars moved and driven over the floor every day, TPS360 Platinum Polished Concrete was specified for its glossy finish, wear and tyre mark resistance, and simple maintenance.

Scope of Works

The Specification

  1. 01

    Latex Removal

    Old latex layers removed with an HTC 950 RX grinder in a virtually dust-free process

  2. 02

    Grinding

    Progressive grinding through finer grit sizes

  3. 03

    Densifying

    Concrete impregnated with densifiers before polishing

  4. 04

    Polishing

    Diamond polishing to a smooth gloss finish

On Site

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
