Cause 1: no diamond grinding
Coatings need a rough, open surface to grip. Acid etching or just cleaning leaves a smooth surface, and hot tires can lift the coating.
Cause 2: moisture in the slab
Florida slabs often push moisture up from below. That pressure can break the bond. We check for moisture and use a vapor barrier primer when needed.
Cause 3: thin kit coatings
Store-bought kits are thin and low in solids. They can wear through and peel fast under heavy use.
How we prepare every floor
Diamond grinding, crack and divot filling, moisture checks, then a full base, broadcast and topcoat system.
