After Project Description:
With Foreman Anthony at the helm, the concrete sealing project in Glendale, Arizona, was a resounding success. Anthony and his team utilized DecoShield™ Concrete Sealer to rejuvenate the family's concrete surfaces, providing both protection and visual enhancement.
The process began with meticulous surface preparation, using a special etching liquid to ensure maximum adhesion of the sealer. Next, the concrete was power washed to remove any dirt, grime, and oil stains, leaving behind a clean canvas. Once dry, the team applied the tinted DecoShield concrete sealer in multiple coats, allowing each layer to cure before proceeding to the next.
The result was striking. The once dull and damaged concrete surfaces now boasted a translucent tint that not only enhanced their appearance but also provided robust protection against chemicals, moisture, and UV rays. The family's worries about the longevity of their concrete were alleviated, knowing that their surfaces were now fortified against the harsh elements of an Arizona summer.
Thanks to DecoShield's wide array of concrete stain colors, the family was able to achieve the fresh new look they desired without compromising the integrity of their concrete. The mismatched and stained concrete floors were transformed into a cohesive and visually appealing feature of their home, boosting curb appeal and leaving a lasting impression on visitors.
