Coating floors, of e.g. garages, industrial floors or canteen kitchens is not only important for their visual appearance. These floors can be permanently protected against mechanical damages and penetration of liquids with coloured protective coatings.
Floor coatings which are exposed to moderate stresses
Concrete floors exposed to moderate stresses are ideally and easily coated with the decorative floor sealant KÖSTER EM-VS. The coating is applied in two layers onto the prepared and cleaned concrete surface.
The surface protection of walls is easily done with KÖSTER Silicone Paint White.
Always adhere to the specifications in the respective Technical Guidelines.
Floor coatings which are exposed to heavy stresses
Concrete floors which are exposed to heavy stresses are coated with KÖSTER LF-BM. KÖSTER LF-BM is applied to the prepared, dry, sound and solid substrate free of loose particles and bond inhibiting substances. By mixing KÖSTER LF-BM with quartz sand the coating achieves a high mechanical strength.
The surface protection of walls is easily done with KÖSTER Silicone Paint White.
Always adhere to the specifications in the respective Technical Guidelines.
Moisture penetration through concrete slabs can cause severe problems for subsequent flooring. High concentrations of moisture and alkalinity can lead to the delamination of coatings. To avoid this effect the concrete slab has to be primed with a material which has very good bonding characteristics, forms a vapor barrier and is resistant to high alkalinity.
KÖSTER VAP 2000 is a special material which fulfils all of these functions. It is applied to shot blasted and solid substrates that are free of bond inhibiting substances. After curing a covering layer (i.e. KÖSTER EM-VS) or the final flooring can be applied.
Always adhere to the specifications in the respective Technical Guidelines.
