Our Process

1. Pre-Work Preparation

2. Precision Blasting

Using controlled low-pressure shot blasting, we remove unwanted coatings and reveal the original surface characteristics

3. Surface Profiling

The blasting process creates the optimal surface texture for maximum adhesion of subsequent coatings or treatments.

Floor coating failures are almost always caused by inadequate surface preparation. Shot blasting to CSP 3–5 is the only method that consistently achieves the profile and cleanliness needed for a floor coating with a 10+ year service life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of floor coatings can be removed?

Our shot blasting equipment can remove virtually any floor coating including paint, epoxy, tar, adhesives, and surface laitance from concrete floors.

How long does floor preparation take?

Project duration depends on floor area and coating thickness. Most commercial floors can be prepared at 100-300 square meters per day.

Will shot blasting damage my concrete floor?

No. When performed correctly by trained professionals, shot blasting removes only the surface coating and creates beneficial texture for new coatings without damaging the concrete substrate.
