hi guys.. i have had an enquiry from a customer who runs a village hall that has a badmington court marked out on the floor. its fading and he wants them re-painted, has anyone done this type of work? is there a special paint i should use? and where might i get it? thanks in advance.
yes please mate....the guys says he doesnt want the floor sanded and sealed (can lines still be done if not sealed afterwards?) he just wants the badmington court lines re-painted.
Is it being scrubbed clean? What type of floor is it, wood or granwood? It can be done with a little prep Whereabouts? so I can give you an accurate price
Hi it depends on what type of sportsfloor or hall this is, if its just a hall and the caretaker has painted it himself and dosent want to pay for doing it probably, if you can find out what they used before and paint it with the same,masking either side of the existing lines, rubb down and abrade this section , paint with normal paint and then put hard wearing lacquer over the top, or use two part hard sports floor paint, like junckers sportsline do a small test first and see how it keys to the existing. we have been using the uv cure lately as it dosent smell and dries quickly and then hardens instantly looks like MJFL does a lot more than me, so would take his advice first, we just offer it as a service when we lay the wood/Vinyl
Nobody seems to have asked, but you have mention uv cure several times, is this something you produce?or just use?
The paint I use will be good for upto 5 years (depending usage) painted directlty to the surface and no need to seal it.
No dont make the stuff just have the machine, its the same stuff that they use on the production lines for most wood and lino, vinyl, most factory coated products have a 3 to 4 coats of UV cured seal or oils, if it wasn't uv cured think of the storage space they would need for it to dry, let alone the dust problems, so the machine lets me give the same instant hardening to the products onsite, most are water based which have to dry but are then cured/hardened with UV light, one product is 100% solids stays wet until you cure it with UV light, but its instant, used for concrete , lining industrial areas as its resistant to most chemicals as well. but its very hard to get a smooth finish without air bubbles , still working on that product as i can see a lot of potential This is a little video I have done for my website, not finished yet but will give you an idea, going to change the music, I look like one of the cybermen http://www.uvcure.co.uk/UVCure/Movie.html
Hi, Sounds good stuff, I can see where you're coming from with the conversation we had this morning any new avenue is always worth a few hours to investigate. Thanks for the email link, may be worth showing my client. Thanks
