With summer peeking around the corner here in Kansas City, the heat is already cranking up, and so is the intensity of the sun’s UV rays. For homeowners and businesses with decorative concrete, this can spell trouble. Notorious for their vulnerability, these surfaces, along with old, outdated epoxy floor coatings, are under siege by the sun, leading to fading, a chalky appearance, and even an unwanted yellowish hue.
At Rock Solid Concrete Sealing Systems, we’ve seen firsthand the toll that Kansas City’s sun can take on concrete. But fear not—we have the perfect solution tailored to protect your investment and keep it looking pristine.
Why UV Protection for Concrete Matters
Concrete isn’t just functional; it’s often a piece of art. Decorative concrete, including colored, stamped, and stained varieties, enhances the aesthetic of any space. However, just like any valuable piece of art, it requires protection, especially against something as relentless as UV radiation. When unprotected concrete is exposed to UV rays, it doesn’t just lose its color—it can weaken and degrade over time, leading to more serious damage.
The Downside of Traditional Epoxy Coatings
Many turn to epoxy coatings for their garage floors or basements, attracted by their glossy finish and seemingly robust protection. However, these coatings have their downsides. Not only do they take an age to cure – sometimes up to several weeks – but they are also prone to discoloration under UV exposure. Imagine waiting all that time for a floor that turns yellow the first summer it encounters!
