AUGER CAST PILES

THE SYNTHETIC ELASTOMER-POLYESTER BASE COATING CONTAINS FIBERGLASS, ASBESTOS, AND PERLITE; IT IS FLEXIBLE, VISCOUS, A SEMI-PASTE, AND APPEARS TO HAVE EXCELLENT COLOR RETENTION, GOOD ADHESION, AND GOOD WATER RESISTANCE. IT IS USED TO COVER UP STRUCTURAL CONCRETE WITH ITS STAINS, CRACKS, UNEVEN TEXTURE, AND POROUS SURFACE. ALSO, IT IS EASY TO APPLY SINCE ONLY 2 OR 3 MEN ARE REQUIRED--ONE MAN FOR SPRAYING, ONE MAN ON THE TRUCK, AND ONE MAN HANDLING PAINT SHIELD OR ELSE MASKING EVERYTHING NOT TO BE PAINTED.
