3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Floor-Tech RS, Seal-Tech CC,

Concrete Joint Repair
Floor-Tech RS and Seal-Tech SS were used to repair a movement joint between a building and the external concrete hardstanding.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Grano-Tech, Grano-Tech Prime

Concrete Stairway Repair
A complete repair of this Recreation Area's stairway was required. Thorough cleaning and roughening of the surface of the repair area was carried out before the application of a tack coat of Grano-Tech Primer. The damaged areas were then rebuilt using Grano-Tech which is our three component, solventfree, heavy duty epoxy repair mortar. The entire surface of the concrete stairway was then coated with Floor-Tech FB.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Conveyor, Flexi-Tech 60 RG,

Conveyor Repair
Flexi-Tech 60 RG was used to repair a conveyor belt had ripped partly due to the sub-zero temperatures which it very often had to operate in and also due to general wear and tear.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex, Metal-Tech EG, Chemi-Tech U

Drying Drum Rebuild
The drying drum at this paper mill had become badly corroded and suffered heavy cavitation due to years of service in an aggressive chemical environment.
Our two component, engineering grade metal repair compound Metal-Tech EG was used to rebuild the surface of the drum, which was then machined smooth. Two 300 micron coats of Chemi-Tech UC, our two component solvent-free epoxy coating designed for use where exceptional resistance to chemical attack is required, were applied.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Floor-Tech PR,chipping concr

Extreme Concrete Repair
Floor-Tech PR was used to repair extensive areas of the Heathrow Airport taxiway, one of the busiest airports in the world. The areas for repair were only available for 7 hours throughout the night and all repairs had to be cured to a compressive strength of 12,000 psi. The repairs proved a complete success with the regular flow of aircraft using the taxiway the following morning.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Cerami-Tech EG, Cerami-Tech

Gate Valve Repair
The surfaces of this gate valve had been subjected to severe erosion and corrosion as a result of the very aggressive operating conditions. All loose material was scraped away. The surfaces were then blast cleaned. Our multi-purpose ceramic epoxy Cerami-Tech EG was used to rebuild the internal surfaces of the gate valve, after which Cerami-Tech CR was applied.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Poly-Tech, Uni-Tech MC Prime

Gutter Protection
The roof of this building has two 162 ft. long box gutters. The client required a long-term high performance protection system, which would waterproof and weatherproof the gutters.
The reinforced Poly-Tech system was recommended for this application based on the fact that it is totally unaffected by ponding water or permanent immersion conditions.
The surface of the box gutters was prepared ensuring the substrate was clean, dry and free from contamination. It was then primed with Uni-Tech MC Primer prior to the application of the Poly-Tech system. This comprised one coat of Poly-Tech into which Thortex Chopped Strand Matt was embedded, followed by a second coat of Poly-Tech.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Floor-Tech HB, Uni-Tech GP P

High Build Floor Protection
A heavy duty floor protection system suitable for concrete floors operating in an aggressive industrial environment was required. The Floor-Tech HB system was chosen for this application over other coating systems based on its ceramic enhancement. The dense concrete floor, totalling 3,090 sq. feet, was prepared by captive-shot blasting and primed with Uni-Tech GP Primer. The primed substrate was then coated with our two component, solventfree, ceramic-enhanced, high build epoxy coating Floor-Tech HB which offers optimum levels of adhesion, abrasion, impact and chemical resistance.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex, Metal-Tech RG, repair high

High Pressure Tank Repairs
Large high pressure tanks, measuring 10.5 ft in diameter by 15 ft in length, were found to be leaking around the rivets. The tanks were shot blasted and the problem areas diamond ground to create a key. Repairs were then effected using our rapid curing, engineering grade polyurethane repair compound Metal-Tech RG. The tanks were then coated with Corro-Tech GP, which can be used as an excellent anti-corrosive primer/finish.


3M, Scotchkote,Thortex,Pump, Cerami-Tech CR, Chemi

Intake Pump Housing Refurbishment
Cerami Tech CR resurfacing and lining system and Chemi-Tech EP used to refurbish an intake pump badly cavitated due to years of service in a salt water environment.


3M, Scotchkote, Thortex, Metal-Tech Pipe Repair, L

Leaking Pipe Repair
On news year’s day this Drain Commission had a bad leak on a 3 inch “T” and had no replacement parts they could use. Fortunately, they had ordered USI Pipe Repair System 4 months earlier.


3M, Scotchkote,Thortex,Concrete, Concrete Resurfac

Machine Base Concrete Resurface
Floor-Tech RS and Chemi-Tech CR used to rebuild pump platform which had suffered from attack over several years by different chemicals including hot manatol.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex, Floor-Tech HB, Grip-Tech, F

Paper Mill Floor Protection
A paper plant in Oregon was experiencing paper roll damage due to the deterioration of the floor surface in front of three paper machines.
All previous coatings and spalled areas were cleaned and repaired. The substrate was primed with Floor-Tech SP Primer and then coated with Floor-Tech HB. A yellow safety line was then created though the application of Grip-Tech in yellow. Floor-Tech HB is a high build, ceramic-reinforced, heavy duty epoxy coating designed for the long-term protection of floors in high ìwear & tearî environments. It offers optimum levels of adhesion, abrasion and impact resistance.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Poly-Tech WG, Thortex Choppe

Roof Refurbishment
This section of roof had deteriorated over time and now required a cost-effective waterproofing system, which would protect the building beneath. The roof was cleaned, dirt and debris removed and any damaged areas repaired. Poly-Tech WG was first applied to the substrate fully embedding Thortex Chopped Strand Matt followed by a second coat of Poly-Tech WG.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex, Flexi-Tech Primer, Flexi-Te

Secondary Containment Area Protection
The concrete walls and floor of this 150 ft × 150 ft × 15 ft secondary containment unit, which houses a 60 ft high gasoline tank, had developed cracks. Following a site survey, it was established that there were 52 vertical and horizontal cracks and joints to seal which totalled over 4800 linear feet. The areas to be repaired were grit blasted using an angular abrasive and treated with Flexi-Tech Primer. Flexi-Tech 80 EG was then applied.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex,Grano-Tech, high performance

Stairway Repairs
The staircase in this building, protected by the state as a unique architectural construction, had deteriorated badly and was to be returned it to its original appearance. The damaged areas were rebuilt with Grano-Tech, the high performance concrete repair product.


3M,Scotchkote,Thortex, Cerami-Tech EG, rebuild pit

Twin Lobe Refurbishment
One coat of Cerami-Tech EG was used to rebuild the pitted areas of the twin lobe, of which there are two in each Roots Blower, followed by one coat of Cerami-Tech FG.
Two coats of Cerami-Tech CR were finally applied to the rebuilt surface of the twin lobe.
Cerami-Tech CR is a solvent-free epoxy coating which provides a smooth, low friction finish as well as optimum levels of physical & mechanical strength and superior resistance to erosion and corrosion.
