Maintenance requirements
Resurfacing:
allnex recommend two options:
● Re-aggregating with Traxite VE which is a high durability and chemically resistant finish. It offers very good adhesion to the
prepared older surface.
● A second option is Nuthane topcoat which offers a monolithic and non-slip coloured finish with no odours.
Repairs:
Can be undertaken with further new Decorative Sureshield applied directly or use Decorative Sureshield ZV (low odour) repair system.
Cleaning:
A Decorative Sureshield floor is cleaned with stiff bristled brushes and detergents. The stiff bristle brushes and commercial detergents will
remove dirt from the non-slip surface that a soft mop will not. The waxed nature of our top-coating system may attract dirt during the early
life of the product. Pay careful attention to cleaning at this stage. (Refer to the Resin Flooring Cleaning document on our website).
Environmental
Environmental rating:
Sureshield is supplied in two forms: Sureshield Standard and Sureshield ZV.
Both emit, on curing, less than one gram / lt of emitted materials .
These therefore are both considered to comply with Green Star or LEEDS systems for a star for applied coatings for low emission of solvents.
The standard version has an odour during application (but still emits far less than 1gram/litre).
The Sureshield ZV (zero VOC or zero volatile organic compounds) has no odour during installation.
This latter system would have enhanced ratings for lower workplace impact.
These resins are made in Australia.
The resin is mixed on site with NZ sourced aggregates.
