Preparation of Concrete for Rapid Coating Application

Because process shutdowns are expensive, it is desirable to speed up the turn-around time when applying protective coating systems on concrete. Rapid installation of surfacing materials on concrete can be problematical due to inadequate surface preparation, residual moisture, low surface tensile strength, and poor compatibility between the concrete substrate repair materials and the protective coating system.

Because process shutdowns are expensive, it is desirable to speed up the turn-around time when applying protective coating systems on concrete. Rapid installation of surfacing materials on concrete can be problematical due to inadequate surface preparation, residual moisture, low surface tensile strength, and poor compatibility between the concrete substrate repair materials and the protective coating system. This paper describes rapid hardening and drying concrete mixtures, use of dry surface preparation methods, and application of moisture-mitigating or tolerant surfacing systems to reduce delays required for concrete curing, moisture dissipation, and preparation for coating selection and installation.
