Luxury apartments parking garage repaired with FLEXODECK II preservation.
 The Skyline Towers luxury apartments are some of the busiest in the Skyline district. In order to accommodate the rigorous daily traffic from its residents, their parking garage requires a very durable waterproofing solution that can protect and preserve the infrastructure and its quality.
The owner originally tried a standard quality waterproofing option. However, it was not able to adjust to the heavy traffic and stress caused by the thermo cycles. As a result, it cracked and peeled off after only a couple of years.
When assessing the situation, the engineer involved recommended the use of MARK 170.2 FLEXODECK II from POLY-CARB of Dow Epoxy Systems, based on his first-hand experience with its proven performance. The parking garage's owner agreed to go with FLEXODECK II, especially after finding that the price was insignificant compared to its long-lasting durability.
FLEXODECK II is…
- The highest quality protective system in the industry
- Extremely durable
- The most cost efficient
- Quickly-applied
- Free from VOC’s and toxic odors
- Backed by a long history of performance
 FLEXODECK II utilizes a hybrid multi-polymer technology so that the physical properties of the system will remain consistent, regardless of the thermo cycles. Additionally, each component of the system has been designed to withstand the stress of heavy traffic. The final result is a system solution that is able to last up to three times as long as high quality waterproofing options.
FLEXODECK II was installed to the parking stalls, driving lanes and ramps on all levels of the garage in two-day phases, maintaining functionality of the garage and preventing any further inconvenience for the Skyline Towers residents.
A year after installation, FLEXODECK II shows no signs of deterioration and is delivering daily skid-resistance, consistent performance and positive impressions to Skyline Towers residents, guests and potential residents.
