Shop industrial floor coatings, epoxy systems, acrylic urethanes and waterproof deck systems for shops, warehouses, commercial floors and exterior surfaces. Compare systems by substrate, exposure, cure schedule and preparation requirements before selecting a coating.
Start with the substrate, moisture condition, traffic, chemical exposure, temperature and return-to-service target. Confirm that primer, basecoat and finish are compatible components of the chosen system.
Surface preparation drives performance
Cleaning, profiling, repairs and moisture evaluation should follow the coating manufacturer’s requirements. A high-performance coating cannot compensate for an unsuitable or contaminated substrate.
Exterior decks and waterproofing
For coordinated deck preparation and coating components, review the Deckote system. Apply every layer within the stated conditions and recoat windows.
Frequently asked questions
Is epoxy floor coating the same as floor paint? Epoxy is a reactive coating system with different preparation, mixing and cure requirements from conventional paint.
Do I need a primer? It depends on the substrate and system. Use the primer specified by the coating manufacturer rather than assuming it can be omitted.
How much coating do I need? Coverage depends on the product, surface profile, porosity and number of coats; calculate from the product’s stated coverage rate.
