100% Repairable
Deep and long scratches, holes, burns and other more or less severe surface damages on ColoRex® can be simply and effectively repaired, without leaving any trace and without affecting the ESD protective
properties.

100% repairability is possible due to the perfect homogeneity of ColoRex® and the low content of
plasticizer.

abrasive cleaning
Surface damages like burns, dulling or discoloration caused by chemicals, stubborn stains and alike can be perfectly removed by abrasion using a normal eccentric grinding machine. Proceed in several steps, starting with a coarse sand paper disk and-finishing with a fine grade one. Complete the operation by polishing the repaired spot with a red pad, this will restore the original surface quality of ColoRex®.

deep scratch

homogeneous welding

Deep scratches and other physical damages of the ColoRex® tiles can be repaired by homogeneous welding. Cut a strip of ColoRex® from a tile of the same color reference of the one being repaired, slide the strip into the special flat welding nozzle of a hot air gun and gently weld it straight into the damaged spot, setting a temperature of approx. 400-450°C. Remove the excess material with a sharp crescent shape knife and complete the operation by sanding and polishing the repaired spot.
