Can the RetroPlateTM System be used in tilt-up construction?
Yes. The RetroPlateTM System is compatible with tilt-up construction, however, all bondbreaker must be completely removed during the grinding phase of the RetroPlate System, increasing the time and cost of the application. • Will vapor migration affect a RetroPlateTM floor? Answer: Because the RetroPlateTM System is not a coating, any vapor migration can pass through the concrete and be released into the air without consequence. With the RetroPlateTM System, there is nothing to re-emulsify and detach from the floor. Because the RetroPlateTM System densifies the surface, it will also help reduce the amount of moisture passing through the floor. • Are RetroPlateTM floors slippery? Answer: By closing off the pores at the surface, the floor does become slightly more slippery. However, the RetroPlateTM System falls within OSHA and ADA recommendations for coefficient of friction. Please see the RetroPlate coefficient of friction testing page. • Who is allowed to apply the RetroPlateTM System
