SKID-PRO
Skid-Pro is a light weight, micro layer of polymerized composites and is not a paint. It is composed of specially sized aggregate, enriched composite powder, and proprietary polymers. The Skid-Pro system is a 2 layer, screed or spray applied process that is impervious to diesel fuel, gasoline, aviation fluids, salt water, oil, and U.V. degradation. The total thickness of the system ranges from 30 mils to 60 mils depending on the size of the aggregate, and is available in all of the primary colors. Skid-Pro colored markings are also a micro layer of polymerized high strength cement capable of producing long term quality markings. Glass beads can be used in the material to produce high retro-reflectivity numbers for night time visibility. The material has full depth color, will not fade, and is unaffected by U. V. The material meets and exceeds all of the EPA requirements. Skid-Pro is waterproof, fuel and oil resistant, colorfast, and protects metal surfaces from rust. We believe that the material also has significant sound dampening capabilities.
PolyCon’s Skid-Pro product is a newly formulated high friction, high wear surface that combines all the characteristics and attributes of PolyCon’sE-Krete product, with properly graded aggregates to meet any friction coefficient required for a particular application. The E-Krete product has been further refined and reformulated to provide a long lasting, colored pavement marking product currently marketed under the trademark PERMASTRIPE This revolutionary pavement-marking product yields the same durability as the E-Krete product, but also exhibits the additional attributes necessary for a high performance pavement marking including high retro-reflectivity, and high chromaticity retention. Colors currently available include yellow, white, black, blue (handicap), red and green.
The primary difference between Skid-Pro and traditional paint with sand is the composite formula is stronger than the non-skid aggregate and therefore locks the chips in place. The opposite is true in epoxy with sand. Traditional epoxy and urethane systems are extremely sensitive to U.V. and humidity which will cause the materials to fail. Skid-Pro requires moisture to fully cure and therefore humidity is a necessary ingredient. The material and workmanship carry a written 10 year warranty and a 20 year life expectancy. Skid-Pro can be applied directly over mill primer, zinc primer, stable epoxy or wheel-abraded metal.
Manufactured by PolyCon Manufacturing in Madison, Mississippi, Skid-Pro is the world’s first and only cement based safety non-skid coating for the marine industry, and has been used on off-shore oil platforms, barge decks, petroleum industry workboats, regional airport runways, tarmacs and taxiways, interstate bridge decks, and military airfields since 1997.
