Polyaspartic coatings are used in many applications including bridge coatings, secondary containment, marine applications, and countertops. Because of there fast cure, excellent adhesion, superior abrasion resistance, UV stability, and low VOCs polyaspartics are an ideal coating for floors.
A tremendous advantage of polyaspartics are their fast cure time. Most polyaspartics can be recoated in as little as an hour and open for foot traffic in 3 to 4 hours. This is means there is virtually no down time and reduces the number of trips to and from the job site. This adds up to big savings in the long run.
Polyaspartic coating provide excellent abrasion resistance making it an ideal coating for high traffic commercial applications such as restaurants, malls, warehouses, and hotels. In Tabor Abrasion tests, polyaspartics rate almost 3 times more durable than epoxies.
Another advantage over epoxies is there superior UV stability. Unlike epoxies, polyaspartics do not yellow in sunlight.
Most polyaspartics are a 100 percent solids material which means low or no volatile organics (VOCs) during application. This comes in handy when working indoors.
These characteristics make polyaspartic coating an ideal application for many concrete flooring applications including acid stained concrete and overlays.
