How to Polish ARDEX PC-T™ Concrete Topping

WERKMASTER 7 STEP POLISHED TOPPING SYSTEM

The process began with using a Propane TITAN XT to remove two layers of carpet glue using our PCD/Shark combo tool, followed by 25 grit Orange HD Single Segs metal bond abrasives.
The floor was leveled and prepared for ARDEX PC-T™.  After waiting three days, the floor was cut using a combination of 30/40 and 80/100 grit Orange HD Single Seg metal bond abrasives. The balance of the steps included WerkMaster’s  proprietary Achromic resins and professional resins.

The floor was densified at 200 grit and completed at 1500 grit. A single coat of concrete sealer was applied and burnished at the end.
