Concrete Refurbishing and Polishing

Refurbish and Polish Concrete surfaces up to 2,000 sq. ft. with EDCO's polishing system. A small, portable EDCO floor grinder, EDCO Shield Densifier and some grinding accessories will have you on your way to creating a hardened, polished and protected surface.

EDCO Shield is a surface hardener and densifier that will significantly increase your concrete's surface strength. It protects against industrial traffic and tire marks, eliminates concrete dusting and constant maintenance and resists chemicals, stains, oil, water, etc. When EDCO Shield is applied as directed, it becomes an integral part of the wear surface-sealing and hardening with long lasting results.

Existing slabs must be cleaned and restored to a smooth level surface by grinding with diamond discs. Use coarse grit discs to eliminate the rough, irregular imperfections, high joints, curling, poor finishing techniques and progress through a series of finer grit diamond discs until the surface is left with a clean, smooth finish. Apply EDCO Shield, work it into the surface with a scrubbing pad and continue further grinding with a succession of fine grit abrasives that will produce a highly polished surface. EDCO Shield does not change the condition of the surface (color, texture, appearance), only the hardness and density is changed. The look and texture of the concrete is determined during the initial grinding stages.
