4 Common Uses for EDCO Concrete Floor Grinders

An EDCO Concrete Floor Grinder uses multiple accessories to complete many applications, making it one of the most versatile pieces of surface preparation equipment available. It’s the one machine you need to complete all kinds of tasks.

Here are 4 moneymaking uses for the EDCO Concrete Floor Grinder:

1 – LEVELING CONCRETE SURFACES
Fifty years ago this machine was invented to level concrete surfaces. Before EDCO, contractors were forced to level concrete by hand or with crudely modified floor buffers. Our invention freed them to grind concrete while standing comfortably. Concrete must be level before tile or carpet installation. Using the EDCO Dyma-Serts these grinders will level concrete floors, smooth rough surfaces, and remove concrete imperfections.

2 – REMOVING THIN AND HARD COATINGS
Again using the Dyma-Serts, the Concrete Floor Grinders quickly remove thinner, hard coatings like Paint, Epoxy Thin-Coats, Mastic, and Thin-Set. The Dyma-Serts smooth concrete while removing, thus creating level surfaces ready for new coatings.

3 – REMOVING THICK SOFT COATINGS
Trying to grind thicker, soft coatings is time consuming as these coatings smear. Instead of grinding, the carbide tipped Strip-Serts quickly strip away soft coatings by riding on top of concrete surfaces. Tacky surfaces of Tar, Fiberglass, Mastics, Ice, Paint and Tile Glue are no match for this accessory. Pour sand onto the concrete when removing Tile Glue. The sand balls up the glue after the Strip-Serts slice through it. The glue is then easily swept away.

4 – REMOVING INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH COVERINGS
Water-Proofing Membrane, Urethane, Pool Deck Coatings, Multi-Part Epoxy and thick Mastic are designed to permanently adhere to concrete surfaces. Unfortunately these coverings often fail. It takes an industrial strength accessory like PCDyma-Serts to remove these industrial coatings. PCD’s (Polycrystalline Diamonds) are 4 times stronger than carbide and are designed to aggressively rip through anything they contact. The PCDymas leave grooved concrete finishes.
