ConcreteEffects is a factory authorized installer of Elite Crete Systems™ products. Below are the steps we follow to ensure that their products are installed correctly:
  • Surface Preparation - This is a critical element of a successful job. To ensure the product will adhere to the concrete, we repair cracks, pressure wash, acid etch, neutralize, and rinse.
  • Installation of Base Materials
    • For thin-stamp overlay projects we install a skim coat of Thin-Finish™, a bond coat of Thin-Finish™, and then a 1/4 inch think coat of Texture-Pave™. We then stamp the Texture-Pave™.
    • For spray down projects we install a skim coat of Thin-Finish™, apply stencil or hand taped pattern, and then a texture coat of Thin-Finish™ applied with a hopper gun.
    • For trowel down projects we install a skim coat of Thin-Finish™, apply stencil or hand taped pattern, and then a texture coat of Thin-Finish™ applied with a trowel.
  • Finishing Touches - We use a coloring product that is unique to the market called Ultra-Stone™. Ultra-Stone™ is a waterborne emulsion based stain that carries Portion Control Colorant™ to create a translucent and aged appearance on any textured finish.
  • Project Completion - We seal multiple times with CSS or WCS Emulsion™, apply wax products if indoors, thoroughly clean up work area, and give instructions to client on the care and maintenance of their new surface.
