Anti-Freeze Cleaning Salts Left on the Floor Surface Cause Osmotic Blistering in Epoxy

A Laverton North cold store facility used a magnesium chloride-based anti-freeze solution on their dock approach floor to prevent ice formation during winter operations. The floor had been cleaned before our marking visit but not thoroughly rinsed — the salt solution had evaporated, leaving a crystalline salt residue on the concrete surface. The residue wasn't obvious to visual inspection.

We applied two-pack epoxy primer. Within three weeks, osmotic blistering appeared across the primer film in the dock approach zone — small domes in the coating where moisture had migrated through the film to dissolve the salt crystals beneath it. Osmotic blistering is caused by dissolved salts under a semi-permeable coating drawing moisture through the film by osmosis. The blisters eventually rupture and adhesion fails.

Salt residue on concrete must be removed with a thorough fresh water rinse — not just cleaned with a degreaser — before any coating is applied. A conductivity test of the rinse water confirms when the salt has been adequately removed. We now require a fresh water rinse and conductivity check on any Laverton North cold store dock approach floor before primer application. The facility's operations team confirms the rinse has been completed before we prime.

Laverton North is Melbourne's western cold chain hub — Lineage cold storage, Kerry Logistics, Woolworths Liquor DC, and the cold chain operators on William Angliss Drive. VicRoads approved. Anti-freeze salt rinse verification is mandatory pre-primer protocol on every Laverton North cold store dock approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Laverton North William Angliss Drive cold chain and logistics DCs are part of our regular western Melbourne schedule. Anti-freeze salt residue rinse verification required on every cold store dock approach before primer is applied. We've completed 5,000+ projects nationally since 2009 and carry $20M public liability insurance. Every Laverton North quote includes a site assessment, surface condition report, and fixed pricing. No estimates that change at invoicing. For WorkSafe Victoria improvement notices we can typically assess within 24 hours and deploy within 48-72 hours. Completion comes with photo documentation, a compliance statement, and material specifications. VicRoads approved for any road or carpark marking that requires local council or state road authority sign-off.

Dissolved salts under a semi-permeable epoxy film draw moisture from the atmosphere through the film by osmosis — water migrates from low salt concentration above the film to high salt concentration below it. The accumulated moisture lifts the film in domes. Blisters contain the dissolved salt solution. When they rupture, adhesion fails in those zones. Surface preparation is assessed before every Laverton North warehouse job, not assumed. That means checking moisture content, surface pH, contamination, and existing coating compatibility before a product is specified. We've completed 5,000+ warehouse and industrial floor marking jobs since 2009, and we carry $20M public liability insurance. Completion documentation includes product data sheets, application records, and compliance certification.

Conductivity meter. A few drops of distilled water placed on the floor surface, left for 30 seconds, then tested with a conductivity meter. Clean concrete gives very low conductivity readings. Salt-contaminated surfaces give elevated readings. We test at multiple points across the dock approach zone and repeat the rinse-test cycle until conductivity is within an acceptable range.

Completion documentation includes product data sheets, application records, and compliance certification.

Schedule marking sessions when the anti-freeze program has been paused for at least 2-3 days and a thorough fresh water rinse has been done. Mark in the warmer months where possible when anti-freeze use is suspended. If marking must occur during winter anti-freeze operations, schedule it immediately after a confirmed salt-removal rinse.
