Video

This is one of the best videos I have I have seen in which someone explain the principles of getting a nice concrete finish . Does your work cover small jobs ? I was thinking of using Diathonite Screed, as it has a heat retaining qualities with underfloor heating in a small extension? Would I be able to get a decent finish on it

Hi! Thanks for the great video. Can microcement be applied over thinset? Thank you!

Can this applies over thinset?

Is it realiable to apply microcement on facades

What would you recommend to use in a jail where inmates are going to piss and crap on the floors?

Yeah.. you cant have a cement related video without a glimpse of someone's butt crack. Thats professionalism.

please send me details nktradingco.info@gmail.com

this was an outstanding video to learn from. thank you. all the videos I've seen, the people are spraying a tiny bit with the sprayer. this is clearly not enough. I appreciate your insight and sharing this knowledge.

Hello, Enjoyed your videos. I have a planetary polisher with three five inch heads, a DS3011. The machine only weighs thirty pounds and the Fein grinder powering it is about 2 HP. I’ve been experimenting with discs both wet and dry with vast array of results. The wet counter top/ stone pads seem to work well up to 800 but after that the machine bogs down due to absence of water, part of that is a design difficulty with planetary’s. Tried switching to wet or dry floor pads similar to your hybrids where more water can get underneath the pad but the resin of those is so hard that there’s little release or polish as, I’d surmise, they’re more designed to be under a machine that weighs 100 plus lbs. with a smaller machine that would mean exerting that much pressure while polishing or grinding and going beyond the power units ability. Would these pads you have work on a smaller lighter machine? Regards Paul

Great video! This weekend our mouldy carpet was lifted and the slab underneath ground, a sealer was applied but it seems many steps have been missed. Is it too late to apply a densifyer? How do we know if it's a soft floor?

Hi just watched this great looking fab i am doing up a large house in the Caribbean and i am researching this option how do i get the products i would really need some advice . As I am on a budget and think this may be a way to save costs

What about concrete countertop

Hi, what's the type of the concrete? Thx

5 minutes straight of this guy's ass hanging out.

How do you suggest to have a polished concrete floor for blast freezer operations usually operating at minus 40 deg Centigrade

How would a densities work on a soft clay floor? Claycreat?

When installing epoxy floors and you wanna densify the concrete. Which one do you do first. Polish then densify ànd right then the primers or you polish the floor again after the densifier for good concrete bonding with the primer

Do you do sample packs of your product at all?

Thanks for the informative video. I'm looking to densify a white micro concrete wear layer (3mm thick) over a SLC levelled floor. I'd prefer the surface remain matt or satin, rather than gloss. I was looking at Everbuild (a Sika brand) silicate based 403 concrete hardener. It's about 1/3 the price of other products that are also silicate based. I'm wondering if it's a false economy. Will test first of course. Is your product suitable for ending with a matt or satin finish (so, could the floor be lightly sanded with say 120 grit afterwards to take away the gloss)? The other query is, is densifying a thin (albeit fibre reinforced and polymer modified) mortar layer (the 'micro concrete') a bad idea if the floor has encapsulated electric under floor heating? i.e. is it quite likely to break up if the surface becomes much harder, when subject to thermal expansion? Last query, in your view would a 5% SBR content (effectively 2% SBR solids), WRT cement, interfere significantly with the effectiveness of a silicate densifier?

What are disadvantages of densified concrete ? And how much it is expensive than epoxy/PU flooring ?

YOUR AMAZING KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK - LOVE THE EXPLANATION OF THIS PROCESS BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN

Nice

Any thoughts on a densifier/sealer like ps104 as a final layer on a garage floor? I'm thinking of sanding then sealing without polishing as it's a bit out of price range unfortunately. But it could be polished in the future right?

Great job explaining the application, how long should we let the densify dry? Overnight?

Hi! Do you travel to oxford to polish floors? Thanks!

How is the topcoat non slip?

nice

How did you make the different shadowing? It looks amazing. Would love to make bathroom walls look like that but not in one shadow but like yours!

Hi, im Kris from Jakarta, Indonesia. Is it possible to polish a steel fiber reinforced concrete floor?? Does it make an ugly pattern instead of rock salt look.

Hey guys, just curious as to what grit resins you started with on the Lavina? Thanks!

Take that horrible plastic door off ! :p

Thanks man from Canada

Nicely covered. Sad, but very true analogy of what separates DIY and highly experienced professionals. In saying that, contractors invest heavily in equipment though commonly fail to invest in themselves.... manufactures focus on selling rather then build the professionalism of the industry collectively.

WOW! What a transformation, excellent workmanship.

Looks like you been busy on many different projects in this vid, I see you got that steve bloke on the floor as well, did I spot a new 4 headed 3 phase machine in there somewhere?

Looks really nice Dave, Its good when the power float has been left as it should be to achieve a polished cream finish, I have been working on other methods of how to finish polished cream.

Never knew Matt Santoro do polish floors 2:41

Well no shit ! I understand if I'm hiring someone trained I'll get a nice looking floor unfortunately I don't have that kind of money to do my house and the tiles are there now are disgusting!

How do you protect the floor for the rest of construction?

you gone 3 phase?

Dude does the last few seconds cut out at the end of the video? Trying to work out if I need send it back.

I'm based in western aus and was wondering what the tooling is called that you used to massage in the grout is called and where I can purchase them from

great video mate

After the final trowel can that be the finished floor with the addition of a sealer? I am looking for a screed I can apply to my floor that does not require polishing but still has an ascetically pleasing look. Thanks, Matt.

Yeah, things are much easier on the dark side mate lol

Turning to the dark side no jack in site lol

l liked it's very good .
