Preparation Equipment

Floor Preparation for Resin Coatings
To ensure a successful application it is necessary to prepare the substrate prior to application of flooring or walling systems. Please refer to our 'Advice' Page for more details on the preparation required.
Suitable equipment is available via hire companies nationwide. Should you require assistance with finding a hire company please call or email us and we will endeavour to help.
We have arranged special prices through Alide Plant of Keynsham. They are able to deliver plant nationwide, although of course there is a transport cost which may make them expensive depending where you are based.
When contacting Alide quote 'First Solution' in order to obtain these special rates.
The most suitable preparation equipment for most floor coating systems will be either a diamond grinder or STR Machine with a heavy duty vacuum attached.
