Coating Removal & Stripping in Gilbert.
Coating Removal & Stripping is the pre-polish or pre-coating work that determines whether the final surface lasts. Mechanical removal of old epoxy, paint, mastic, sealer, and carpet adhesive. Required before any polish or recoat. Done dust-controlled with diamond + PCD tooling.
Most polished concrete failures are prep failures. Skipped grinding, missed joint repair, untreated cracks, insufficient densification , every one of these shows up six months later as a worn surface, a delamination, or a polish that didn’t hold. Mint runs coating removal as a standalone service for GCs and facility managers who want the prep done right before another contractor handles the finish , or as part of a full polished concrete or coating install.
