🚗 Case Study: Car Park Deck Protection with Tecnopol Liquid Coatings
This summer, Clever Shield supplied another full Tecnopol liquid coating system — part of the Mapei family — to one of our valued customers for a major car park deck refurbishment.
The project required a durable, slip-resistant, and weatherproof finish capable of withstanding regular car traffic and constant exposure to the elements. Our customer’s installation team carried out the works to a high standard, using the materials we supplied to deliver a seamless, long-lasting result.
The Challenge
Car park decks are exposed to a unique mix of mechanical stress, chemical attack, and environmental conditions. Without the right protection, concrete surfaces can deteriorate rapidly, leading to water ingress, surface damage, and costly repairs.
For this project, the client needed a solution that would:
-
Resist abrasion from tyres and constant traffic
-
Protect against oils, fuels, and de-icing salts
-
Provide a slip-resistant surface for safety
-
Cure quickly to minimise downtime
-
Maintain an attractive, professional finish over time
The Solution – Tecnopol Liquid Coatings
We supplied the Tecnopol liquid-applied system, which offers:
-
Rapid curing times – minimal disruption and faster return to service
-
Seamless, waterproof membrane – prevents water penetration and protects the structure
-
Strong adhesion – bonds to the prepared substrate for long-term durability
-
Slip-resistant finish – safer for both vehicles and pedestrians
-
Chemical resistance – withstands automotive fluids, salts, and cleaning agents
The Application
Our customer’s installation team prepared the surface and applied the Tecnopol system in multiple stages:
-
Surface preparation to remove contaminants and ensure optimal adhesion
-
Primer application to create a strong bond between the concrete and coating
-
Liquid coating application in multiple layers for even coverage and durability
-
Anti-slip aggregate broadcast to achieve the required slip rating
-
Final sealing coat for enhanced wear resistance and long-term aesthetics
The Results
The completed car park deck is now:
-
Protected for years to come thanks to the high-performance membrane
-
Safer and more user-friendly due to its slip-resistant finish
-
Aesthetically improved, presenting a professional, clean look for users
The Tecnopol system ensures the deck will continue to perform under demanding conditions, with minimal maintenance requirements.
