Removal Project-Removal Of Aged & Delaminated Epoxy Floor Coating

Mechanical removal of deteriorated epoxy coating in multi-storey car park

Epoxy Coating Removal Works – Car Park Surface Restoration

This project involved the removal of aged and delaminated epoxy floor coating from a multi-storey car park surface. The existing coating showed signs of peeling, blistering, and uneven wear, posing both aesthetic and safety concerns.

The goal was to mechanically strip the epoxy layer and restore the concrete surface to a clean, bondable condition in preparation for new coating or repair work.

Machine Application: HRC 550

The HRC 550 planetary grinder was selected for its efficiency and power in handling large surface restoration tasks. Key features utilized in this project:

Three planetary grinding heads delivering high coverage and uniform removal
Equipped with PCD diamond tooling ideal for epoxy and thick coating removal
Heavy-duty motor and adjustable pressure system for tackling varying floor conditions
Compatible with dust extraction systems to reduce airborne debris and improve worksite cleanliness

This configuration allowed for consistent removal of epoxy without damaging the underlying concrete.

Work Process:

Surface Preparation
- Loose debris and surface contaminants were cleared.
- Safety measures, including barriers and signage, were set up.
Epoxy Grinding
- HRC 550 was used to grind through the epoxy coating layer by layer.
- Passes were made systematically to ensure full removal across the parking bays and drive lanes.
- Edges and tight areas were treated using handheld grinders with matching tooling.
Final Touch-up & Cleaning
- Surface was vacuumed and inspected for remaining coating.
- Final grinding pass ensured the surface was ready for the next application phase.
