Other FAQs :
- Q: What is the optimal timing for sealing concrete, and how can I determine if my concrete surfaces require sealing at the present moment?
- A: The optimal time to seal your concrete is right after installation to provide immediate protection against staining and damage. As for determining if your concrete surfaces require sealing, there are a couple of indicators to look out for. Firstly, if you notice patchy areas on the floor where the sealant has worn off or is uneven, it is a clear sign that resealing is needed. Additionally, if your concrete is becoming more susceptible to staining and is no longer repelling liquids as effectively as before, it is a good indication that it is time to apply a fresh coat of sealer. By addressing these signs promptly, you can ensure that your concrete remains adequately protected and maintains its optimal appearance.
- Q: How dusty is the polishing process?
- A: The process is virtually dust free. There is no airborne dust due to the use of Hepa filter vacuum systems. There will be some residual dust left on the floor but it will be vacuumed up between steps by another filtered vacuum. A little dust is created when using hand held grinders, however this is removed between each grinding stage.
- Q: Do you apply sealer to the floor?
- A: Polished concrete on its own is quite stain resistant, but many solutions can seep into the pores to create a stain, or even etch the floor. A sealer will line the pores to keep most stains suspended at the surface of the concrete, not allowing the stain to penetrate the floor and further preventing the likelihood of staining.
- Q: Can any concrete floor be polished?
- A: Almost any concrete floor. Floors which are saturated with oil, or are in environments where they will constantly be exposed to acids, are probably not ideal for a polished concrete floor. Whether a new construction or a 100 year old slab, most concrete floors can benefit greatly from the aesthetic, durability, and longevity of polishing.
- Q: What is the recommended method for cleaning polished concrete surfaces?
- A: To maintain the condition of your polished concrete, it is recommended to clean it using a pH-neutral cleaner. This type of cleaner is gentle and does not damage the polished surface. After applying the pH-neutral cleaner, rinse the area with clean water to remove any residue. In case of spills, it is advisable to promptly clean them up using clean water. Additionally, to eliminate dust and keep the surface clean, using a microfiber mop is recommended. This method of cleaning helps to preserve the polished appearance of the concrete while ensuring that it remains free from dirt and debris.
