ARMOR Crack Repair System for Tennis Courts
Super Seal Sealcoating is one of the few contractors that is factory authorized to install the ARMOR® Crack Repair System.
The ARMOR® Crack Repair System utilizes a knitted fabric that expands as the crack widens. However, like a rubber band, this fabric will not stretch where it is glued to a hard surface. If it were simply bonded over a crack, the only part of the fabric that would be able to stretch is the portion that is spanning the opening of the crack. And, although some fabric may withstand as much as 200% expansion, the paint on top never would, resulting in the appearance of a crack. Therefore, the secret to making this fabric work is how it is purposely NOT bonded to the court in the vicinity of the crack, thereby allowing more of the fabric to absorb any movement or growth of the crack without the paint on top of the repair cracking.
Although your tennis court is technically still cracked, that crack is isolated beneath an expandable membrane hidden from view. After this repair is covered with color coating materials, it is virtually unnoticeable. The special membrane allows the crack to expand and contract without the crack reappearing on the surface. Although it will not prevent cracks from developing elsewhere on the court or prevent cracks from growing in length out beyond the repair, it successfully keeps repaired structural cracks from reappearing on the surface.
