Traditional Polished Concrete Flooring

Originally, polished concrete floors were based on the standard grindand sealing process. This process requires grinding the concrete to the desired amount of aggregate exposure and then applying different sealers (polyurethane commonly used) to create the finish wanted like a wet glossy look.

These sacrificial coatings are like timber floors require a long term maintenance program which consists of stripping and re-sealing the floor to keep the polished concrete looking its best. This option is perfect for older lessor quality concrete in renovations or surfaces that require 100% sealing. The process requires good ventilation, for the concrete to have cured for 4 weeks if new and for the floors to be left to dry for a few days before use. This means that there is more down time on a project and does not allow for fast turnaround times which can be critical in commercial projects.
