Information
What
is Gator Grip?
Gator Grip rubber is a poured-in-place mix of top-of-the-line
virgin EPDM rubber granules mixed with Aliphatic Urethane to produce a
vibrant, slip resistant, impact absorbing and durable-as-rock surface.
Because Gator Grip is poured in place, it allows uneven areas to be leveled
and depressions to be filled in.
Where
is Gator Grip most commonly used?
Most commonly applied around pool decks, spas and cracked old concrete,
it can be installed over most surfaces including concrete, stone, wood,
epoxy finishes, tile, brick, asphalt and steel. Gator Grip can be applied
both residentially and commercially. Some applications include:

The List Goes
On And On.....
What
kind of maintenance does it require?
Gator Grip does not require any type of annual treatment or sealer. It
only requires the occasional wash with regular soap and water. A pressure
washer (no more than 1500 PSI) can be used for more thorough cleaning,
though it is recommended that the nozzle not be held to close to the surface.
How durable is Gator Grip?
Gator Grip is extremely durable, and virtually indestructible.
It is as durable as rock, yet soft and bouncy as rubber. Once the bond
has occurred between granules and the surface, considerable force and
technique is require to detach it from the surface or itself.
How does Gator Grip compare to other products?
There is virtually no comparison to other products on the market
for resurfacing and safety flooring. While other products are prone to
cracking, peeling, or flaking, Gator Grip is very flexible and expands
and contracts with temperature changes in the various elements.
What
are some special features about Gator Grip?
Gator Grip can make uneven surfaces even again without having to
cut out, chisel, or break away existing surfaces. Joints and holes can
be filled in, with a resulting seamless application that many other products
cannot offer. It is also UV resistant, antibacterial, and anti-fungal.
How soon can I walk on new Gator Grip?
Gator Grip usually requires 24-48 hours to dry completely before it can
be walked on.
Is the finished rubber surface slippery when wet?
Gator Grip is slip-resistant, much like a bath mat. It may be wet, though
you feel much more grip than other wet surface applications.
Will you make a custom color for our project?
Yes. While there many colors to choose from that will keep your
project cost down, Gator Grip can be customized to your needs by mixing
and matching many different base colors.
Is
Gator Grip hot to the touch under the scorching sun?
No. Because Gator Grip is in granule form, heat dissipates through the
holes in between the granules, thus making it even easier to walk on than
light colored concrete. Rubber is also less likely to absorb heat and
cold compared to other substances.
Is Gator Grip porous, and will it drain?
Yes. Water will continue to filter through the tiny openings between the
granule bonds, and will drain in the natural direction of the underlying
slope.
Can
Gator Grip be repaired if it somehow gets damaged?
While Gator grip is difficult to damage, it can easily be repaired by
cutting out the damaged portion of flooring, and installing new rubber
with the same color mix. Once applied, the new rubber will blend in with
the existing rubber, and will not be noticeable within a short period
of time.
Do you offer a warranty?
Gator Grip stands behind our workmanship on each and every job. We include
a 5 year limited warranty against defective materials or workmanship-caused
issues.
Can Gator Grip be applied vertically?
Yes. Vertical application is possible though far more expensive by about
five times. Vertical application requires special materials and chemicals,
and far more labor intensive.
Can
you install custom logos or emblems?
We can install logos and emblems of your choice by stenciling and cutting
out the design, then filling in with the required colors to effect your
design.
Do
you do use different applications for playgrounds, golf courses, sealed
floor applications, etc.?
We offer a line of products that include Gator Grip, Gator Flex,
and Gator Skyn to address the various desired applications. Each varies
by thickness, layers, and material used.
