Conteco is designated as a design floor – a common designation for joint-free cement-based floors. This type of floor places high demands on its underlying floor surface and experience shows that any surface problems are often attributable to problems with the underlying floor. The finished floor should, just like any other floor, be inspected carefully and in natural daylight.

The acceptance criteria for a design floor include:

• Pin holes and smaller blisters may appear on the surface and must be accepted at a rate of up to five occurrences per every 10 m2.
• Shrinkage cracks and color differences are to be expected and must be accepted.
• Transitions must be accepted in connection with any repairs or subsequent levelling.
• Roller marks may appear in Conteco Concrete Sealer.
• Patches and similar can appear on the surface to a lesser extent.

When applying on tiles, these should be thoroughly levelled and primed before Conteco is applied. This is to ensure an even surface with a uniform and minimal absorbency. You can find all the products you will need to prepare your surface and more in our webshop.

Before applying Conteco on raw concrete, the surface must be treated with concrete primer to minimize absorbency. If applying Conteco on newly laid concrete, the relative moisture in the surface should always be measured.

When applying Conteco, the surface should always be even and non-absorbent. If you have questions on how to prepare your surface, you are always welcome to contact us by email info@conteco.dk.

The final appearance of the surface will depend a great deal on what tool you use. If you use a steel trowel, then you will work towards a “flamed” look with nice contrasting colors. Using a plastic trowel, on the other hand, will give you a more uniform finish. Conteco can be applied with a painting brush or roller, however, we recommend the use of a trowel or spatula, as this gives the best result. 

If the result is not what you wanted – you can always add another layer of concrete.

Tip: Have a bucket of water ready for the tools between the Conteco layers. Then it will be easier to clean them afterwards.

No, this is not necessary. We do however recommend applying each layer in one working procedure to ensure a uniform look.
