What is the best vertical surface coating product?
The acrylic concrete coating used by Les Surfaces Polyplay Ottawa
Acrylic coatings for concrete are extremely high-performance products. They are composed of a primary polymer cement base into which a fiberglass membrane is applied. The acrylic coating is then trowelled or sprayed onto the customer’s surface. The stages can vary depending on the customer’s project.
Why choose acrylic concrete coating?
At Surfaces PolyPlay Ottawa, we useacrylic coatings on vertical surfaces such as flooring and decorative walls. This cladding also has excellent characteristics for horizontal installation.
The acrylic installation steps ensure that your floor continues to breathe while remaining waterproof. We call this characteristic: air-permeable and waterproof. These 2 features are essential for the sustainability of your project.
In addition to protecting and waterproofing your foundations, acrylic is much more resistant than cementitious plasters and paints. An acrylic coating installed to the right specifications means efficiency, durability and elegance.

Acrylic coating is a high-performance product
When an acrylic coating is used to cover your foundation, it is usually applied as a waterproof, breathable coating. In short, it doesn’t let water through, but lets air through to allow your concrete to breathe. Acrylic coatings must be applied to foundations in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations, taking into account the particularities of the foundation and local environmental conditions. It’s important to entrust your work to professionals in the field. At PolyPlay, all our installers are trained to meet your expectations.
