CONCRETE FLOOR’S BEST GAME PLAN
Green Umbrella® Max Defense™ system wins a high-performance architectural concrete floor with products designed to play well together. Created for owners and design professionals who have experienced the failure of products that do not team well. A system for the success of interior polished concrete @MatureAge™. Uses the GreenCut Abrasives™ system that includes the surface refinement cutting agent GreenCut®. Profile with a conventional grinder or a fitted finishing trowel to see unfair production rates compared to the competition. Process using selected GC abrasives—BigStock™, GC-X™, Fusion™, Eraser™, and PolishPlus™—to create a superior mechanical foundation defense with any specified class of profile or gloss. The Max Defense system first covers the field with DryShield™, our highly abrasion-resistant flagship densifier that fills the concrete void. Shield & Enhance™ is next in the lineup to protect from salt with superior stain protection. Bring a fantastic finish with Interior Microfilm™, a repairable wear-guard that brings clarity to the profile. Max Defense promotes bonding and cross-linking within the concrete without the negative side-effect of ASR or topical delamination found with other products. Maintain with GreenClean™ as part of the LifeCycle™ Maintenance system. All of this is “Concrete Floor’s Best Game Plan.”
PROCESS, EQUIPMENT, & ABRASIVES
Green Umbrella equipment and abrasives are designed specifically for wet profiling. Equipped with a standard quick change system to promote even abrasive wear and quick field changes, cutting downtime on PHP projects.
The wet process eliminates airborne crystalline silica dust and its potential health hazards, such as silicosis due to inhaling these dangerous airborne particulates, and improves indoor air quality. Propane is one of the cleanest burning fossil fuels, cutting emissions and leaving a smaller carbon footprint than a typical electric model.
GreenCut® starts by creating a slurry that produces a denser surface, reducing seven abrasive cuts to as few as two.
GC-BigStock™ abrasives can be used for increased aggregate exposure. Ideal for architectural concrete featuring a large aggregate reveal. Optional
GC-X™ abrasives are powerful 10-segment metal abrasives designed for use with Green Umbrella® GreenCut®. Optional
GC-Fusion™ abrasives are a hybrid bond of industry-leading metals and resin. Four different abrasive grits are available to achieve the desired RA (roughness average) on the slab.
The GC-Eraser™ class of semi-metal honing abrasives is engineered for specific surface refinement.
Designed for use within Green Umbrella® Base Defense™, Max Defense™, and other profile systems, our GC-PolishPlus™ abrasives finish off the process to achieve the desired surface sheen.
GreenUmbrella® NanoDye™ concrete colorant is an interior, translucent, subsurface, pH-neutral dye that utilizes nano-sized particulates to penetrate the concrete, depositing colorant into the concrete subsurface and promoting a longer lifecycle.
Shield & Enhance™ is an environmentally formulated premium hardener. Shield & Enhance is engineered as a color-guard to enhance colored and profiled architectural concrete floors, providing a darker, clarified-gloss appearance. As a unique oxidation inhibitor, Shield & Enhance significantly increases a salt pigmented or nano dye’s lifecycle, extending colorfastness.
Interior MicroFilm™ is an R.T.U. repairable impregnating micro-treatment for abrasively profiled architectural concrete floors.
