01

Traffic, safety and service conditions

Floor performance follows the actual traffic, impact, cleaning, slip and chemical exposure. Moisture and cohesion of the substrate, joints, falls, thresholds and transitions should be resolved before choosing the visible finish.

02

Layers and references

Define the sequence from prepared substrate through primer or bond coat, functional membrane or body coat, reinforcement where specified, and protective or finish layer where required. Use the current technical data sheet for preparation, mixing, consumption, thickness, overcoat windows and cure; the Calculator supports quantities, while Systems and the product references establish the applicable route.

03

Common mistakes

• Choosing a decorative or pedestrian finish for traffic, turning, impact or chemical loads it was not designed to carry.
• Coating damp, laitance-contaminated or weak concrete without diagnosis and suitable preparation.
• Leaving joints, coves, thresholds, drains and transitions out of the quantity take-off and inspection plan.

04

Operating sequence

1. Record the exposure, dimensions, substrate condition and service scenario. 2. Map joints, edges, penetrations, drains, upstands and repair zones. 3. Select a compatible route in Systems and verify every layer against the current technical data sheet. 4. Calculate quantities with the Calculator. 5. Approve a representative area, document preparation and application controls, inspect the completed build-up, and release it only when the project requirements are met.
