Performance Features
- Chemical & acid resistant – Resistant to all vehicle fluids and Skydrol (aerospace fuel) which is very corrosive
- Heavy-duty rating – 20mg abrasion loss for normal wear & tear. Light forklift traffic rated
- Multi-surface – Works on concrete, wood, or stone
- Low odor – About the same as conventional interior paints
Coverage & Application Details
Coverage: Sold as a 4-gallon set, covers 500 square feet with two coats. Allow yourself at least a 10% safety factor for different floor porosities—every concrete floor is different.
Pot Life: Approximately 15 minutes. We recommend not mixing more than 1 gallon at a time. Start with 1/2 gallon for your first batch until you get familiar working with it.
Color Flake Finish Option
For a decorative color flake finish, choose one of our color flake packs. Instead of 4 gallons of pigmented epoxy, you will receive:
- 2 gallons of the color you selected (base coat)
- 2 gallons of clear coating (topcoat over flakes)
- 6 lbs of color flakes
This creates a finish similar to our Armor Chip Garage Epoxy kit but can be applied during cold winter months.

ULTRA FAST EPOXY FLOORING APPLICATION:
Concrete slab must be clean of all dust, dirt, oil stains or any other contaminants. We recommend the Floor Prep Machine from Home Depot for floors up to 2000 Sq Ft or a rental diamond grinder with new 25 grit bits for best results. Be sure to use a grinder with an appropriate non clogging vacuum attachment to minimize the dust. After grinding, vacuum the floor to remove leftover dust. Then using a strong leaf blower, blow any remaining dust off the floor just prior to application. As an alternate two strong acid etches with a 2:1 ratio of water to acid at 1 gallon of muriatic acid per 300 Sq Ft will work also. Be sure to do afinal neutralizing rinse with TSP powder at 1 lb/1000 sf. Simply sprinkle TSP on wet floor, scrub in and rinse well this will bring the slab back to the proper PH. This is important to ensure a permanent bond.
Oil stains can be removed by mechanical grinding methods or scrubbed out with Liquid Tide and Muriatic Acid, be sure to neutralize these spots after washing with TSP. Test oil spots by sprinkling water on them, water should not bead up or turn rainbow bluish tint.
Repair any cracks or divots prior to coating. Coatings will not repair floor damage.
Once floor is ready for coating stir each can with separate stir sticks to unify any separated materials. Pour all the Tint(1 pint) into the Part A and mix until color is uniform. Pour out the Part A into a clear measuring container, do the same with the Part B in a separate container. Please note that this productis not like standard off the shelf epoxies and has a short working time of about 15-20 minutes. Mix one gallon total of Part A & Part B at a time per the mix ratio on the label for both. You can use any measuring cups to measure smaller amounts, as long as you maintain the proper ratios. Pre hardening of product is not covered under the warranty so do not mix too much until you get a feel for how much you can apply in 15 minutes. Make sure to mix all material from the sides and bottom of your container so you donβt end up with any unmixed material. Do not over stir or create a vortex that will induce air into the mixture. Do not use the same stir stick in different cans, use the same stick to stir the Part A, same stick to stir Part B and the same stick to mix the combined components. You will need at least 3 heavy duty stir sticks. Using the stir stick from one can and then using it in another can of a different component will cause cross contamination.
Pour mixed coating onto the floor in a left to right bead and spread out with 1/4" nap epoxy lint free roller. Apply the epoxy at approximately 275 sf/mixed gallon. Do not mix in sunlight and do not store product in sun or hot areas. Do not mix more than 1 gallon at a time per person rolling.
Let first coat dry to the touch, about 2- 3 hours, be sure it is fully dry to the touch(should not leave fingerprints). First coat may dry with some streaks in it. Apply the second coat in the same exact way as the first coat, perpendicular to the first coat if possible. Avoid puddling and over rolling for best results. Spread rate is approximately 275 sf/gal. You will get better coverage on the 2nd coat since the floor is sealed and all streakiness will be eliminated.
For a slip-resistant surface we recommend using a non-slip additive that can be mixed into the final coat, as opposed to broadcasting. Recommended non-slip additive is Armor Ultrawear Nonslip additive. Make sure to mix this in thoroughly before applying, and re-mix when pouring more into roller pan to keep non skid suspended. Coating is slippery when wet so nonslip is recommended wherever the floor may get wet or oily.
Clean up and spills or epoxy from your hands(gloves are recommended) while epoxy is still wet, once dried it's extremely hard to remove. Xylene or equivalent works best for cleanups.
We suggest you start with a small batch at first, about Β½ gallon mixed (one quart each of A and B is best) and apply that in a corner area. This will get you used to mixing and working with the coating. The rest of the floor application should be straightforward.
