- Short description
- The main engineering and maintenance shed had oil contaminated slabs with no effective slip resistance and could not be cleaned to the required standards. An anti-slip coating suitable for heavy duty use, exposure to oil contamination and frequent high pressure cleaning was required. Due to the existing oil contamination and the absence of an effective damp-proof membrane, Remmers Epoxy MT100 primer was applied to ensure adequate adhesion. Remmers Epoxyflex Coating PH, incorporating a quartz profile, was chosen as a final coating.
