water-based coating).

Surface preparation
To ensure proper adhesion of a floor treatment to the
substrate, it is necessary for the substrate to be sound, dry
and clean. Existing substrates are often contaminated with oil
or chemicals and new substrate always has laitance over its
surface. Whatever the state of the substrate, proper surface
preparation is required to obtain proper adhesion between the
substrate and the floor treatment. There are various methods
of surface preparation. Those most frequently used include:

(a) Captive shot blasting

This is the most usual method. It consists of pressure-spraying
the substrate with metal particles which are then sucked up
again in closed circuit. This system has been developed to meet
the growing demand for a dust proof surface preparation.

(b) Scarification
Scarification is used primarily for the removal of concrete,
brittle coatings and polymer overlays. A scarifier may also be
used to profile concrete surfaces for the application of self-
levelling systems, broadcast systems and overlays. In scarifying,
rotating cutters mounted to the perimeter of a drum impact
the substrate surface at a high rate of speed. The impact of the
rotating cutters fractures and pulverizes the substrate, creating
a surface profile. It helps to remove oil and contaminants, mill
scale and rust, glues and adhesives.
