/ THE PROCESS

Four phases.
Day by day.

From the first moisture reading to the final inspection, the same sequence applies whether the floor is 600 square feet or sixty thousand. Here's exactly what happens.

/ Phase 01

Assessment

Before we quote, we visit. The substrate tells us what system can actually be installed — not the other way around.

On-SiteVisual inspection, square footage verification, photo documentation, joint and crack mapping.
Moisture TestASTM F2170 RH probe or ASTM F1869 calcium chloride dome to determine if moisture vapor barrier is required.
System SpecSystem recommendation written against findings — quartz, flake, metallic, solid, with or without MVB.
Bid / QuoteLine-itemed bid for commercial; instant or assessed quote for residential.
/ Phase 02

Surface Preparation

The single most important phase. The difference between a coating that lasts 20 years and one that delaminates in 18 months is what happens before any resin touches the slab.

Day 1 AMSite protection: walls, equipment, adjacent floors masked. HEPA vacuum staged.
Day 1Diamond grinding or shot blasting to ICRI Concrete Surface Profile 3 (CSP-3). Heavier prep on slick or contaminated substrates.
Day 1 PMCrack chase, pour, and patch. Joint detailing per spec. Final HEPA vacuum.
VerificationProfile checked against ICRI replicas. Substrate signed off before next phase.
/ Phase 03

Application

Resin chemistry installed in sequence — primer, base, broadcast, top coat — each layer mechanically locked to the next. Polyaspartic recoat windows are short and unforgiving; this phase runs to the clock.

Day 2 AMEpoxy primer / MVB installed. Aggregate broadcast for inter-coat bond.
Day 2 MidPolyaspartic base coat installed. For broadcast systems, quartz or flake broadcast to refusal during the wet window.
Day 2 PMExcess broadcast removed. Grout / lock coat installed. Surface prepared for top coat.
Day 3 AMT2000 polyaspartic top coat installed. Final film thickness verified.
/ Phase 04

Cure & Inspection

Polyaspartic resin returns to foot traffic in 2-4 hours and full service in 24. Walk-through inspection happens before the floor is released back to the owner.

+2-4 HoursFoot traffic permitted. Light cleanup begins.
+24 HoursFull service / vehicle traffic. Floor is in operation.
Walk-ThroughFinal inspection with owner or facility manager. Punch list addressed before sign-off.
DocumentationCertificate of installation issued for commercial work — referenced for warranty registration and capital records.
