Project of the Month: UC-190 Installation

We had the opportunity to install one of our new Urethane concrete products this month in Waco, TX. The space to be coated was a commercial kitchen at a Bush's Chicken franchise. This environment sees hot oil spills from the deep fryers, heavy degreasing chemicals, and hot water wash downs which can cause thermal shock. By installing UC-190 urethane concrete, we remedied all these possible issues for the client. This was a full application of cove base, followed by a 3/16" application of UC-190 with sand broadcast to rejection. After an overnight cure, a final coat of UC-190 Topcoat was applied to lock the sand in. The client was very pleased with the result.

Tech Tips:

Spread Rates

Be sure to check and know what the recommended spread rates are for each product you are using. Not only will the correct spread rates give the coating the best chance to optimally perform, but will cut down on any unnecessary wasted product. Coatings that are applied too thick, have a chance for outgassing to occur or even change the sheen of the coating. If applied too thin, separation or "fish eyeing" can occur, along with dry spots that are unprotected and could lead to coating failures.
