What is floor blasting and why is it needed before coating?

Floor blasting (shot blasting or abrasive blasting) mechanically profiles the concrete surface to an ICRI CSP 3-5 profile, removing old coatings, laitance, and contaminants. This profile is required for epoxy and urethane coatings to bond properly, skipping surface prep is the leading cause of premature floor coating failure.

What OSHA requirements apply to safety line remarking in warehouses?

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22 requires permanent aisles and passageways to be appropriately marked. Safety lines must be clearly visible, typically 2-4 inches wide in yellow or white, delineating pedestrian walkways, forklift lanes, and hazard zones. We blast old lines clean and apply fresh OSHA-compliant markings in epoxy or urethane paint.

What Is Floor Blasting & Remarking?

Industrial floors take a beating. When coatings fail or safety lines fade, Quad Cities Blasting & Industrial Coatings Group restores them right, starting with shot blasting or scarifying to achieve the ICRI CSP profile your coating system demands, then applying epoxy, urethane, or polyurea, and finishing with crisp OSHA-compliant safety line remarking.

The Process

How Our Floor Blasting & Coating Process Works

Surface Blasting & Profile

We shot-blast or scarify the existing floor to remove failing coatings and achieve the ICRI CSP 3-5 anchor profile required for industrial coating adhesion.

Coating System Application

We apply the specified epoxy, urethane, or polyurea system in the correct thickness, primer, body coat, and topcoat, per manufacturer and project specs.

Safety Line Remarking

Once the base coat cures, we lay out and apply OSHA-compliant safety lines, aisle markings, hazard zones, and equipment boundaries using durable floor paint or tape.

Coating Systems

Floor Coating Systems

Engineered for industrial performance

Epoxy Floor Coating

General Industrial

High-build epoxy provides excellent chemical resistance and a hard, cleanable surface. Ideal for warehouses, manufacturing floors, and food processing areas.

Urethane Topcoat

High-Traffic Areas

Applied over epoxy primer, urethane topcoats add UV stability, abrasion resistance, and a gloss finish that holds up under forklift traffic.

Polyurea Coating

Fast-Cure / Extreme Duty

Rapid-cure polyurea systems minimize downtime and deliver superior impact and abrasion resistance for the most demanding industrial environments.

Safety Line Paint

OSHA Compliance

OSHA 1910.22-compliant floor marking paint in standard safety colors, yellow aisles, red hazard zones, white equipment boundaries, and more.
