#00 Surface Prep Tool – Concrete Surface Preparation

#00 Surface Prep Tool

The #00 Prep Tool is a combination PCD/metal-bond preparation tool built for aggressive surface prep on concrete — stripping adhesives, thin-sets, and epoxy coatings (up to ~4mm thick) and leveling surface inequalities of about ±4mm. It mounts on any Prep/Master® machine with the patented EG attachment system and leaves a rough, profiled surface (grooves up to ~1mm deep) ready for the next step.

Where It Fits in the Process

The #00 Prep Tool is the heavy-duty prep step — use it to take a coated, glued, or uneven floor down to clean, profiled concrete before grinding or running a polishing system. Tip: start with no added head weight, then add weight to the head for more bite (or to the handle for less).

A matched set (equal #00R and #00L) depends on your machine:

• Prep/Master Jr. & 2807/2818LP — 3 right + 3 left
