Job
Description: Created
a 6' x 3' x 1" thick POLYSHIELD Hi-E™ (High Elongation)
stamp. The stamp was pressed into a wet concrete sidewalk in the
City of Valdez, Alaska for approximately 8,000 sq. ft. and covered
with a concrete sealer. POLYSHIELD Hi-E™ was considered
because of its availability and similarity in appearance to the
original stamp material. Stamp was designed and carved by an artist
especially for this job. The final sidewalk clearly displays a
pattern of large fish leaping from one wave to another and is
an eyecatching addition to the City of Valdez.
Follow-up
Inspection: Finished product was inspected and passed all
tests.
Other
Coatings Evaluated for Project: Another company was contacted
to make the stamp with an unknown material but failed to produce
the stamp in the necessary time frame.
