Granite News & Granite press Releases Jan 2008 Concrete Grinder Uses Unique Dust Shroud Differentiating Features This new concrete grinder is built around a special dust shroud called Hoverhood, which enables the grinder to hover and float as if on a cushion of air. Concrete grinding is now used to prepare floors for coatings, vinyl flooring, glue or paint removal or even polishing concrete floors. Vast quantities of concrete dust are generated in the grinding process which requires a highly efficient dust shroud to contain it without causing friction with the floor. Hoverhood™ also has the ability to grind against an edge or wall and Hoverhood™ dust shrouds will fit all popular nine inch angle grinders. The Situp™ N Grind system utilizing the Hoverhood™ dust shroud is the only floor grinder that floats easily and can be moved immediately in any direction. For most flooring tradesmen this will be the lowest cost concrete grinder and also the most versatile without being too large and awkward to use. For large contractors it will be the fastest edge grinder and the most compact. Our website explains all the features, the grinding speeds you can expect, information about diamonds and grinding hard or soft concrete, or thick and thin coatings. It also features a selection of diamond cupwheels available for easy grinding of almost anything. These concrete grinding products are used to remove tripping hazards on paths to remove tile adhesive, vinyl tile glue, epoxy coatings, clear sealers or to just level uneven floors. They can expose aggregate or remove thick levelling compounds if the correct cupwheel is fitted. For dust control you will find a special, high-performance, vacuum, dust collector with automatic, self-cleaning filters. The vacuum and the concrete grinder can both run off a domestic power outlet making this system the most versatile and easiest grinder to use. Storage is simple because the grinder and vacuum can be transported in the boot of a medium sized car. It is lightweight enough for one man to carry it upstairs. Our website also has individual videos of actual grinding jobs so you can see exactly how it works in many situations so that you can positively and easily evaluate it for your needs.
