Rushden Historical Transport Museum – 690m²

An outstanding end result for this historical transport museum.
Project Overview.
This was a five-day project completed in four with a professional, dedicated hardworking team. The total area to be covered was 650sq.m and the specification and process was as follows: prepared by shot-blasting and then diamond grind, primed with oil tolerant epoxy primer (OT Primer) and then top coated with a solvent free, high build epoxy resin (Flortex Professional). The existing floors were very old and over the years the concrete had become very contaminated and had broken up in places. For years the shed had been subjected to heavy traffic and had even been used as a salt depot. The customer wanted to refurbish the areas and make it a suitable venue for weddings, fairs and other similar events. They described it as an “outstanding end result”.
Vacuum Assisted Shot Blasting.
Our Vacuum Assisted Shot Blasting service removes weak concrete, dirt, contamination and anything that stops the coating forming a bond. A shot blaster quickly strips coatings in large areas for quick and optimal preparation. The connected industrial vacuum sucks in 95-99% of the dust which makes shotblasting environmentally friendly as chemicals are not required and means harmful paint particles do not enter the atmosphere. By blasting an abrasive substance in a controlled pattern and direction, the concrete surface and contaminants are picked up and land in a recovery chamber.
Flortex Professional.
Infinity Resins uses Polycote’s Flortex Professional, an extremely heavy-duty concrete floor paint perfect for a pristine finish. It’s a very popular industrial epoxy floor paint, designed for environments needing easy maintenance, hygienic flooring and a long-lasting solution. Flortex Professional can be used across a variety of industries, from warehouses and factories, to medical and food preparation environments.
