Smoothing the application of concrete floor finishes
A new product aims to ensure easier finishing of concrete surfaces by troweling or floating, saving both time and money while achieving quality finishes.
The success of a durable and functional floor is said to lie in the ability to produce a quality finish, typically characterised by a smooth and consistent surface, whether in an industrial or decorative setting.
CHRYSO asserts that spraying its FiniSafe concrete aid onto the surface just before the finishing operation commences, makes it possible for the operator to finish the surface faster and with less effort, whether floating mechanically or manually. The product allows the mechanical trowel to pass over the surface more efficiently, ensuring that machine performance is optimised by reducing wear and tear on the blades.
The company further asserts that its product is safe for application on all types of concrete surfaces that require troweling, including standard concrete and industrial flooring and precast products. It may be used safely on both indoor and outdoor concrete, as it has no odour and contains no volatile organic compounds. In addition, CHRYSO FiniSafe does not affect the colour or the appearance of the concrete and may be used with confidence on all decorative concrete surfaces.
When using this product, no water is added during floating or troweling, minimising the potential for unsightly efflorescence appearing on concrete elements or weakened surfaces which will tend to dust, when put into use. Other surface treatments may be applied to the floated surface, without any additional preparation.
CHRYSO FiniSafe promises a smoother finish with better surface densification, meeting the expectations of clients and designers, when specifying a concrete floor.
