Los Angeles, Los Angeles County
California, USA
The board-formed concrete facade of the decorative exterior had deteriorated significantly and needed cleaning, patching, and new surface treatments to preserve and restore the surface to its former Deco glory.
After each area of spalling was cut and the damaged concrete removed, the steel rebar was wire-brushed or sandblasted, and then coated with an epoxy-based anti-oxidant coating to retard future oxidation.
