Consolideck® Grind-N-Fill: Concrete Grinding Liquid That Fills Surface Imperfections During Grinding

Technical Specifications

Consolideck® Grind-N-Fill is a liquid concrete surface treatment designed for use during the concrete floor grinding process. It works by mixing with the dust generated during grinding to create a super-durable matrix that automatically fills pinholes, small air voids, pop-outs, micro-cracks, and other gaps in the concrete surface. The result is a monolithic surface that is ready for polishing and subsequent treatments. It is formulated for contractors and trades professionals working on concrete floor preparation and polishing projects.

Unlike conventional gap-filling methods that require separate steps, Grind-N-Fill integrates surface repair directly into the grinding workflow, reducing labor and process time. Because it works with the existing concrete dust on-site, it leverages material already present on the floor rather than requiring a separately mixed filler compound.

Key Features & Benefits

Fills Imperfections During Grinding

Grind-N-Fill mixes with the concrete dust created while grinding to automatically fill pinholes, small air voids, pop-outs, micro-cracks, and gaps. This eliminates the need for a dedicated patching step, streamlining the overall floor preparation process for contractors.

Creates a Monolithic Surface

By filling surface imperfections in place, Grind-N-Fill produces a uniform, monolithic surface. This consistency allows the floor to polish faster, easier, and more effectively than an untreated or unevenly patched surface.

Improves Acceptance of Subsequent Treatments

With gaps and imperfections filled, the concrete surface accepts hardeners, densifiers, protective treatments, color stains, and hardeners more evenly. This leads to more uniform finished results and reduces the risk of blotchy or inconsistent treatment application.

Easy Application with a Pump-Up Sprayer

Grind-N-Fill is applied using a standard pump-up sprayer, a tool already common on most job sites. This eliminates the need for specialized application equipment and keeps the application process straightforward.

Dilutable with Clean Water

The product can be diluted with clean water, giving contractors flexibility in adjusting coverage and application rate to suit specific job conditions.

VOC Compliant and Red List Reviewed

Grind-N-Fill complies with all known AIM VOC regulations and has been reviewed and confirmed as conformant with the Living Building Challenge Red List, including compliance with LEED 2009, LEEDv4, CARB 2007 SCM, SCAQMD Rule 1113, and SCAQMD Rule 1168. This simplifies green building documentation and submittal requirements on projects requiring environmental compliance.

Common Applications

Concrete Floor Grinding and Polishing Preparation

Applied during the grinding phase of concrete floor polishing projects to fill surface defects in place, creating a uniform base for subsequent polishing steps.

Pinhole and Air Void Repair

Fills small pinholes and air voids in the concrete surface that would otherwise remain visible or cause inconsistencies in the finished floor.

Pop-Out and Micro-Crack Remediation

Addresses pop-outs and micro-cracks during grinding rather than requiring separate patching compounds or additional process steps.

Pre-Treatment Surface Preparation

Prepares concrete floors for more even application of hardeners, densifiers, protective coatings, and color stains by creating a consistent, gap-free surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: When is Grind-N-Fill applied during the floor finishing process?
A: Grind-N-Fill is applied during the concrete grinding phase. It mixes with the dust generated by grinding to fill surface imperfections in place as work progresses.

Q: Does Grind-N-Fill require special application equipment?
A: No. It is applied with a standard pump-up sprayer, which is common on most concrete flooring job sites.

Q: Can Grind-N-Fill be diluted?
A: Yes. It can be diluted with clean water to adjust application rate and coverage as needed for specific job conditions.

Q: Is Grind-N-Fill compliant with green building standards?
A: Yes. Grind-N-Fill complies with all known AIM VOC regulations and has been confirmed as Living Building Challenge Red List Conformant. It also satisfies LEED 2009 and LEEDv4 referenced architectural coating and sealant regulations, including CARB 2007 SCM, SCAQMD Rule 1113, and SCAQMD Rule 1168.

Q: Why does filling surface voids improve hardener and densifier results?
A: With pinholes, micro-cracks, and air voids filled, the concrete surface is more uniform. This allows hardeners, densifiers, protective treatments, and color stains to penetrate and distribute more evenly across the floor.
