Commercial Concrete Floor with Corporate Logo
Posted By kristing on January 28, 2010
The employee lunchroom at the Owens Corning facility in Denver was in need of a little facelift. Once the floor was prepped, a two-coat overlay of Miracote MPC was troweled down. Brickform Walnut Acid Stain was used to achieve the color. The company logo was applied with a two-part template, using Colormaker Red Dye. A durable epoxy and urethane coating was used to finish the project.
Chuy is applying a coat of epoxy. You can see how the sealer brings the color to life.
To enhance the logo, we saw-cut a border around it and filled it with grout. Dice is cleaning up the edges.
The completed project!
Patterned Concrete Residential Floor in Denver, Colorado
Posted By kristing on December 15, 2009
This living space in central Denver had a wood base. So, to get the look that the homeowner was interested in, we had to build a ‘concrete’ substrate. Metal lath was stapled down and Repair Mortar filled the voids. Once cured, the first coat of MPC was troweled. The second coat was trowel and the pattern cut. Coffee colored Dye and Seal was spray on, the accent colors were applied and the first coat of seal put down. Once the sealer had set up, the grout lines were filled, cleaned up and the second coat of sealer applied. Kelly is very pleased with her one-of-a-kind floor—quite a transformation from plywood.

The first coat of the overlay material (Miracote MPC, colored gray) was troweled on the patio of this beautiful home in Castle Rock. Once cured, the flagstone pattern was taped and the second coat of Provincial Tan colored MPC was applied with a textured trowel technique. The border was also troweled and the color is Copper Kettle. A matte finish sealer and slip resistance material was applied as the top coat.

Decorative Concrete for Waterproof Decking
Posted By kristing on July 11, 2009
This beautiful home in the Winter Park, CO area was the site for a Miracote Miraflex II system on the upper deck and a matching overlay on the lower patio. Once the waterproofing system was applied to the upper plywood deck and crack repair and mesh was applied to the lower patio, the decorative overlay work began. Following the application of the first coat, the Ashlar pattern was taped; the top coat was troweled to achieve the desired look. Solvent-based sealer completed the project. This project was featured in an article on ConcreteNetwork.com. Read the article here!

Decorative Concrete Overlay for Pool Decks
Posted By kristing on June 11, 2009
The pool deck at this beautiful apartment complex in Englewood, CO needed some attention prior to opening up for the summer season. Repairing the cracks and spalling was completed prior to the decorative process. We then used two shades of gray to get this beautiful look. The overlay was sprayed to provide a surface with some slip resistance when wet. The project was sealed with two coats of solvent-based sealer.

Acid Stained Floors
Posted By TMCC on April 30, 2009
The concrete floors of this beautiful church in Colorado Springs, CO were stained with Brickform Coffee and Amber Acid Stain. The floor was sealed with Key Resin water-based primer and urethane and then finished with four coats of floor wax. The result–a beautiful, one-of-a-kind, and durable decorative concrete floor. It was a pleasure to be part of this project and we truly enjoyed working with Wayne, Bob and others at Great West Construction.
