All-In-One, Custom-Built Epoxy Floor-Coating Kits For Industry And Home
Durall Industrial Flooring announces its custom-built epoxy flooring systems designed to provide an all-in-one kit for both home owners and professional installers interested in coating concrete or wood surfaces. These kits have been developed with the recognition that people want to buy solutions not products.
The process of obtaining a custom-built kit starts with filling out a web-based, free cost analysis form at www.concrete-floor-coatings.com. The floor's condition, the owner's preferences, and the desired outcome are factored in by Durall's automated computer system. From that point, Durall field technicians prepare a recommended kit of materials and step-by-step instructions needed to take the project from beginning to end. This outcome-based concept ensures that all of the goals for the floor are met and that all of the required tools are available during the installation. Durall makes sure that the inevitable unexpected questions and problems don't sidetrack the results by providing a 24/7 help line.
Durall's approach stands in contrast to the alternative of shopping at local retail stores for supplies which, if they can be found, often don't match the needs of the project. When a handle for a roller frame is needed, should it be 4 ft., 5 ft., or 6 ft. in length? Should it have a metal or wood thread? Should it have a 1-inch diameter or 1-¼ inch diameter? If a 60-grit sanding screen for a 17-inch rotary scrubber is required, where can it be purchased? Durall applies its 40 years of experience to custom- tailoring each kit so that every tool in it is precisely matched to getting the specific project completed efficiently and painlessly. Durall's experts replace the untrained and inexperienced store clerks.
America is moving away from bare concrete and wood surfaces toward lower-cost, lower maintenance, and healthier floor finishes. Biohazards, mildew, dust mites, spoors, and other contaminants are a serious concern to industry and homeowners alike. In this new millennium, warehouses, food processors, manufacturing facilities, even garages, and basements are being sealed with hard surfaces using industry-proven materials and techniques adopted in the past decade.
Chemically resistant, these seamless floors are made of epoxy and urethane, finishes that flow on and then, by changing their chemistry, become resistant to dirt and stains. Flow-coated surfaces are impervious to water and are often used inside liquid storage tanks, swimming pools, and feed troughs. Unlike tile, these surfaces have no grout to clean and are not glued down with latex- or petroleum-based adhesives. Flow-coated surfaces are great adhesives in themselves. With good preparation, flow-coated surfaces are applied permanently, refinished easily, and require little or no maintenance.
Great new looks are also available. Floors can be made to simulate other surfaces such as granite, tile, slate, and others. Logos, stripes, and sparkly yellow brick roads are now appearing in restaurants, "collector cars" garages, basements and even food processing plants. These beautifully sealed and easy to maintain floors come in over 20 colors. The floor finish can be gloss, flat, or satin and may be easily accented with decorative chips. Additionally, the floors may be skid-resistant like emery paper, yet still easy to sweep or squeegee. The secret to creating such striking floor designs is applying an attractive yet highly chemical- and wear-resistant surface that make floors easy to maintain while enhancing their beauty.

Durall's 40 years of flooring chemical manufacturing experience has produced a special preparation of cleaners and an application system assuring optimum flooring adhesion and wear results.
