Carrum Downs' Coastal Sandy Soils Mean Sub-Base Drainage Is Excellent — But Sand Blowing Onto Concrete Surfaces Creates a Preparation Issue
Carrum Downs is on Melbourne's south-eastern coastal sandy plain. The free-draining sandy soils that make the area so well-suited for industrial development also generate wind-blown sand that settles on concrete surfaces — particularly in external carparks where surrounding landscaping has exposed sandy ground.
A Wedge Road industrial carpark had fine wind-blown sand deposited across the surface — visible as a light coating on the concrete and accumulated in corners and along the building edge. Unlike laterite dust, sand is relatively chemically inert and doesn't alter surface pH. But a sand layer on concrete prevents primer from wetting the concrete surface directly.
Compressed air blowdown and vacuum removal cleared the sand from the entire carpark surface before acid etching. Pull-off after sand removal, etch, and primer: 1.7 MPa. Standard result on clean concrete. The sand removal step takes 20-30 minutes — straightforward but essential.
Carrum Downs is Frankston City's Frankston-Dandenong Road and Wedge Road industrial and retail hub. VicRoads approved.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Carrum Downs Wedge Road industrial estate and Frankston-Dandenong Road retail carparks are part of our Frankston City schedule. Wind-blown sand removed before acid etch on all external Carrum Downs carparks — sandy plain location deposits surface coating that must be cleared before preparation. We've completed 5,000+ projects nationally since 2009 and carry $20M public liability. Fixed pricing, VicRoads approved.
The mechanism is similar but the chemistry differs. Silica dust from quarrying contains fine crystalline silica particles that fill pore structures. Wind-blown beach sand is coarser and sits on the surface rather than penetrating pores — it's a surface coating problem rather than a pore contamination problem. Sand is more easily removed (blowdown clears it), while silica dust requires vacuum extraction. Both must be cleared before priming.
Yes — Sandy sub-base in Carrum Downs provides excellent sub-slab drainage, which helps draw moisture downward through the slab rather than trapping it at the surface. New concrete on sandy sub-base at Carrum Downs typically reaches below 6% surface moisture 3-5 days earlier than comparable slabs on clay in Melbourne's outer growth areas. We account for this in our concrete cure timeline estimates for Carrum Downs new development scopes.
Monthly blowdown or sweeping of the full carpark surface prevents sand from building up to the depth where it affects future marking adhesion. For external carparks with direct wind exposure from landscaped sandy ground areas, more frequent sweeping — fortnightly — keeps the surface cleaner. Keeping the perimeter landscaping areas covered or vegetated also significantly reduces the sand source.
