As we all get ready to head into fall, we wanted to profile just some of the project highlights that have taken place in a very busy 2011.

Overview: The state of Alabama wanted to "dress up" a near 3 mile of stretch of plain concrete median. The solution was THIN-FINISH Pre-Mixed Concrete Overlay Topping colored with PORTION CONTROL COLORANT and sealed with CSS EMULSION clear sealer.

Not only will this finish withstand the wear of vehicular tires but the color will not fade in the hot Alabama sun.

Retail Store designers and specifiers are always looking for a new and exciting flooring product and they contacted the specialists in this field when they got Elite Crete Systems involved.

The floor below consists of THIN-FINISH, MICRO-FINISH, E100-PT1 clear epoxy and AUS-V polyurethane for added protection, abrasion resistance and long term durability.

Look for more Quiksilver, Kenneth Cole, Perry Ellis and Ann Taylor store to receive similar Elite Crete Systems floors this fall and winter.

Unless you have been under a rock the past three years, you have surely heard of the high demand and popularity of REFLECTOR Enhancer Flooring Systems. Elite Crete Systems was orginially contacted by the specifier for an "acid stained concrete floor". Having had some poor experience with acid stain in the past, the designer for the Notre Dame project had concerns about long term wearability.

This is where REFLECTOR Enhancer Flooring Systems became the better option. Unlike acid stained floors, these flooring systems can take the abuse that an NCAA sports arena will see. Photos will come in next months issue but plan on seeing over 41,000 sq. ft. of Notre Dame's famous "Blue and Gold"...
