Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is concrete surface coated with a cast in place surfacing composition comprising at least three layers, in order from the concrete surface: a first layer comprising: (1) a hard, epoxy resin, and (2) an inert, inorganic filler material consisting essentially of hollow ceramic beads; a second layer comprising a bonding agent which improves adhesion between said first and third layers, and; a third layer comprising: (1) 20 to 80 parts by weight of a polyurethane, said polyurethane formed by reacting a polyisocyanate with a polyurethane precursor at a mole ratio of 0.8 to 1.4:1, said polyurethane precursor comprising 15 to 60 parts by weight of a high molecular weight polyol and 2 to 10 parts by weight of a low molecular weight chain stiffener, (2) 20 to 80 parts by weight of a substantially non-volatile extender, and (3) 0 to 20 parts by weight of a volatile solvent.
