Outdoor sports field performance specification Denber colors

Outdoor sports court execution specification www.denber.net Introduction: Outdoor sports courts for tennis, basketball, racquetball, volleyball games are made of a leveled and fastened asphalt surface. The sports field is covered with an acrylic superplex sport coating in selected colors and marked with dividing lines and borders as required. Asphalt surfaces tend to crack from ground movements and even sink. Cracks and dents must be filled before starting the coating with Superplex Sport. Superflex Sport is a flexible and rough acrylic coating against slipping, UV resistant, resistant to outdoor conditions and specially designed for coating outdoor sports fields. Produced in shades: green, red, blue, yellow, orange, gray and more on order.

Area preparation: first we will demarcate the site with red and white tape and barriers. The field must be brought to a leveled state without dents and cracks which without leveling will result in a surface on which it is not possible to play properly. The ball will hit the ground and change angle. A situation that is impossible for a proper sports field. We will check the leveling of the surface with an aluminum ruler at least 3 m long. Differences in height up to 10 mm will still be considered within the reasonable range. With more, it must be decided according to the situation whether to fill in dents (because their quantity is small), or to sand the entire area to remove heights. New asphalt must be washed a few days later with water pressure and also washed with a mixture of water and 5 % hydrochloric acid for burning and removing the upper bitumen crust – this will ensure better adhesion of the coating.

If we fill sockets   – we will mark the sockets for filling with spray paint. We will clean and expand with diamond polishing cracks. We will wash the pitch well, scoop up excess water, dry it well with a blower. We will fill cracks with polyflex putty 225 (two-component polyurethane rubber) or with polyplex putty 225. With a large squeegee we will fill the marked recesses withsuperplex sport primer black . We will wait 24 hours for drying.

Application of the layer of Superflex Sport Black Primer: The primer is an aligning and connecting base layer that aligns and levels the remaining small height differences to obtain a straight, smooth and level surface as much as possible in preparation for the top colored coating layer. The application will be carried out with a large wiper for leveling. If one layer did not completely level the surface, you can apply another leveling layer.

Measurements and markings: internal plot boundaries must be marked, nails can be driven in and wires can be stretched. The inside will be painted green/blue usually or another depending on the order. The exterior will be painted in another contrasting color, red, blue, gray or another according to the customer’s order. Singles tennis court dimensions: 23.77 m long, 8.23 ​​m wide. Dimensions of a doubles tennis court: including borders 23.77 m long, 10.97 m wide.

Applying Superflex Sport on the inside of the field: the chosen green or other color is applied in an even layer with a large squeegee on the marked inner boundaries of the field until a uniform and smooth surface is obtained and completely painted. If a nice layer was not obtained, another layer should be applied to obtain a perfect finish.

Applying Superflex Sport on the outside of the field: the chosen red or other color is applied in a uniform layer with a large mop on the marked outer boundaries of the field until a uniform and smooth surface is obtained and completely painted on the entire perimeter of the area around the green surface. If a nice layer was not obtained, another layer should be applied to obtain a perfect finish. The outer layer should connect to the inner one without height differences and the connection between them should be close to the marking thread at a distance of up to 5 cm from it, be careful not to dirty the inner one beyond the marking thread with the outer paint.

Wait 24 hours for the coating to dry.
