Silicone Sealer on a Concrete Surface Causes Fish-Eye Defects in Roller-Applied Paint Too
Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre specified roller-applied road marking paint for their carpark remark — lower cost than thermoplastic for a precinct where full replacement was planned within five years. A section of the carpark had been previously treated with a silicone-based waterproofing sealer to address water ingress issues. We didn't identify the sealer during the assessment.
The roller-applied paint fish-eyed over the silicone sections — identical to the primer fish-eye defect caused by silicone contamination. Circular bare patches throughout the silicone-treated zones where the paint couldn't wet the surface. Not a safety issue, but visually unacceptable.
Silicone contamination affects any water-based or solvent-based coating applied to a surface — not just epoxy primers. Roller-applied road marking paint, which is typically waterborne acrylic, fish-eyes over silicone as readily as any other coating. The identification and treatment approach is the same: diamond grinding past the silicone-treated layer. We identified the silicone on the second visit by the bead-water test and ground the affected sections before repainting.
Waurn Ponds is the Deakin University campus, Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre, and Reservoir Road industrial businesses — a significant retail and commercial precinct at the southern end of Geelong. VicRoads approved. Silicone sealer identification is standard on every Waurn Ponds concrete carpark assessment regardless of the marking product specified.

Silicone dramatically reduces surface energy on concrete. Any coating — waterborne acrylic paint, epoxy primer, polyurethane — requires adequate surface energy to wet and spread. Below the threshold, the coating forms discrete droplets or craters rather than a uniform film. This is true for roller-applied paint as much as for sprayed or squeegee-applied products.

Yes. The bead-water test is simple: drop a small amount of water onto the surface. On standard concrete, the water spreads into a wide wet patch. On silicone-treated concrete, the water beads into near-perfect spheres with no spreading. Any section that beads water is silicone-treated.
