. Is it a safety floor/non-slip?

A. Yes in cases where the surface is required to have a non-slip surface, additives are included to Australian Standard readings for this purpose. Also our Stone- Grip system, is a totally non-slip system and has been successfully applied internally and externally.

. How long does it take to apply the total system?

A. Depending on the preparation time, approximately three to four days. The system must be traffic free (foot) for no less than twenty four hours after final coat, and, 5 to 7 days of vehicular traffic depending on weather conditions.

. Why does it take so long to apply?

A. This is a total epoxy system which requires time to cure under normal weather conditions.

This is to ensure that the curation of the total system is good and that it will do what is said, and due care by the customer will only enhance its life span.

. Is it easy to clean?

A. Very ~~ mild detergents and warm water is usually enough to clean this system. Mops are not

recommended for use as they leave a "dirty film" over the surface. Sponge mops or stiff brooms and water or cleaning machines are all recommended.

. How strong is this system?

A. This floor system is very strong. Trucks/four wheels

drives/fork lifts/ etc. run over the surfaces with

ease and do not damage at all.

A. The areas are infinitesimal! Some examples are;

. Patio’s

Around swimming pools

driveways

These are some of the areas the system has been

successfully applied to already.
