I did a full grind and polish we started with 30/40grit pucks on a large propane planetary grinder. And went all the way to 800 grit resin bonds I removed a lot of material the look you see is actually from when they were screeding the concrete with a power screed when they set it down it...

Well as an update to this I redid the floor and so far it looks better than the last time and seems to be holding up. Had riggers come in with their forklifts and while I did have ram board type paper they shredded that rather quickly but the floor seems to have held up.

Followed application instructions exactly and over did it on the prep. And it was fine at first looked good but over the last couple months it started peeling. I had got some extra product before because I ran short on the last bit so I had enough to re soo it after drywall etc. I spent the...

That is what I was seeing. I think the local guys are just going to ask what I would want.

Space is an L shape sorta main area is 10.5x 31 with about a 4x6 landing at the stairs. So I would need something about 14ftx31ft Also want to do over my bathroom which is 6.5ftx6.5ft

Ah I built mine to support 60psf with a good safety factor so weight is of no concern. Looks and durability is though.

Hey guys I’m in process of finishing my shop and it’s getting time to get some flooring for my mezzanine. It’s about 340sqft and has the typical osb sub floor on it. I plan on have some pallet racking/ shelving up there aswell as a computer desk. I’m looking for a nice flooring solution. I’m...

I had issues with my application and while it looked pretty good at first after a couple months of light use it is peeling up in areas and is not looking great. But I have a polished concrete underneath so it still looks good just a bummer that the product didn’t really work and is not water...

I don’t think you need the lavina for what your are doing. It’s gonna cost 3k or so for the setup.

Honestly with 30/40 buttons it’s already decently smooth. Going to the 70 didn’t visually look too much different actually except for a few spots that must have gotten a rock in there or something during the 30/40 and got more scratched. I ran about 20 passes with the 30/40 and barely have...

Well I rented a larger 900lb propane grinder and things went ok. The grinder rental shop gave me the wrong diamond hardness even after I told them the hardness and I spent days grinding nothing because the diamonds kept glazing over. (they also told me what speeds to run the grinder and it was...

As an update the current plan is to grind the high edges down with a 7" makita grinder and then start putting up the walls the by the time that is done it will be over 30 days and the concrete will be cured enough. at the moment the surface of the concrete is still very soft. scratched by my 3...

Good to know thank you

I think Mazak specs out a 2ft thick foundation for them to garuntee their .0002” accuracy over the machine but that’s not needed for me. My last integrex was on worse concrete and held .0002” for me once warmed up. I also have a 22klbs forklift and my skid steer they will live outside but will...

They just come in on skates then they set them and drill foundation etc. Planned machine is a Mazak Integrex I200ST

well everyone I've talked to said it would probably chip out at the edges. This shop will be for heavy equipment. ill be putting a 36klbs machine on one side and a 15k lbs in the middle and a bunch of smaller lighter equipment in the 2-5klbs range. that equipment usually comes in on machinery...

The contract was verbal and the wanted payment in full which I was thinking this is a big company why should I worry. I told him and he agreed it would be within 1/4". the anchor bolts was also very clearly part of the job but they didn't do that either. I'm going to drive out to them tomorrow...

I have a decent rotary laser As well as a plane laser level. Family used to do some grading work. Forms where checked before they poured to be within 1/8" but that didn't help the floor....

It’s $800 for the grinder then the rest of for all the consumables like the diamonds. The concrete company is fighting me said they did a fine job and trying to say they did this as a favor etc etc why should I expect a commercial grade job blah blah when that’s why I hired a more expensive...

Ok will do thank you for your help so far. Any tips on the grinding? Do you think it’s possible a beginner?
