Floor Densification

Application of chemical densifiers that react with concrete to increase surface hardness, reduce dust formation, improve abrasion resistance, and enhance the overall durability of concrete floors.

1) Surface Preparation: The Floor Must Be Thoroughly Cleaned Of Grease, Dirt, And Curing Compounds. For New Or Rough Concrete, Initial Grinding With Diamond-Encrusted Metal Bond Tools (Approx. 60–120 Grit) Is Used To Open The Pores.
2) Chemical Application: The Liquid Densifier Is Sprayed Or Poured Onto The Surface.
3) Lithium/Potassium Silicates: Usually Sprayed And Spread With A Microfiber Pad Or Soft Broom. They Typically Require A Saturation Period Of 20–30 Minutes And Often Do Not Need Rinsing.
4) Sodium Silicates: Often Applied By “Flooding” The Surface And Agitating It With A Broom Or Scrubber. These Generally Require A Thorough Water Rinse After The Reaction To Prevent White Crystalline Residue (Efflorescence).

1) Dwell & Reaction Time: The Chemical Must Remain Wet On The Surface For A Specific Period (Usually 30 Minutes To 4 Hours) To Allow The Chemical Reaction To Complete Within The Concrete Matrix.
2) Refinement & Polishing: Once Dry, The Floor Is Further Refined Using Progressively Finer Diamond Resin Pads (Starting From 200/400 Grit Up To 3000 Grit) To Achieve The Desired Level Of Sheen.
3) Sealing (Optional): A Final Protective Sealer Or “Guard” May Be Applied To Provide Additional Stain And Moisture Resistance.
