The City of Iowa City (City) is seeking proposals from qualified and experienced vendors to shot blast approximately 5,473 square feet of existing epoxy flooring and cove (approximately 6'' up the wall) down to the original concrete layer at the Robert A. Lee Recreation Center. The area must be cleaned and prepped, with doorways and vents taped off to contain dust from spreading to other areas in the building. After ensuring a smooth surface, any necessary repairs must be made to guarantee proper adhesion of the new coating. The final step involves applying an approved primer followed by a double broadcast of epoxy quartz coating specifically designed for pool deck applications. The color of the epoxy quartz coating must be pre-approved by the City of Iowa City and should closely match the existing color of the on-deck restroom area. Specifications - Required Products A.
