Abstract:
A composition which in use is applied to existing base surfaces to provide a cushioned protective surface thereon. In its preferred form, the composition comprises, by weight, approximately 60% vulcanized rubber particles, 30% latex solution, 7% water and 3% wetting solution. When applied to existing base surfaces, the composition will dry to form a cushioned, durable, protective surface to which may be conveniently added a sealing layer for weatherproofing purposes, which protective surface is then suitable for use as a sports surface, on playgrounds, or as a roofing material.
