Client's Requirements

The client’s floor was contaminated by automobile pollutants like grease, stains from diesel and petroleum leakages, tyre skid marks and vehicle emulsions. Hairline cracks were obvious in multiple structural and concrete substrate areas. On top of all these, the drain detailing was badly delivered by the previous contractor. The client seeks for a long-lasting solution that can be effortlessly maintained without compromising on aesthetics in the overall outcome – due to the need in up keeping on their brand image of being a luxury automobile dealership. The client also hopes that this upgrading will improve the work conditions for the staff and encourages productivity and positive work processes.

Proposed Solution

Polygard® MTX 5020 | 5mm thick heavy duty epoxy mortar floor system with smooth finish.
The concrete has to be degreased to remove all pollutants as part of the floor preparations. Corrective work on the drain detailing is committed through saw-cutting at the edges. The concrete floor is then shot blasted for it to receive the epoxy mortar topping. Potholes or weakened concrete were removed and filled with a tack coat and mortar base prior to applying the grout coat. Two coats of epoxy finishing were then applied. The Polygard® MTX 5020 system functions exceptionally well in areas with high vehicle traffic, with excellent impact resistance while retaining on a high gloss hygienic finish.
