One-Day Floor? No Odor? No Problem!
by Ray Gutoski - Sales Representative for Southern California
Perhaps the most common request flooring contractors hear from their clients is how to install a floor coating quickly, because they just can’t find the down time to do it.
This request isn’t limited to one type of customer. It could be anyone from a residential garage customer to a food and beverage processing facility and everything in between. To remedy this situation, we developed the fast-cure, no-odor Polyurea 5100.
Versatility: The Polyurea 5100 is incredibly versatile and available in clear or any of APF’s Standard Colors, so it can be used as the primary component for any flooring system that is offered. The fast-cure time and recoat window allows for multiple steps to be accomplished in one day or even in a few hours.
Coating System: Polyurea 5100 can be reduced by 10% and be used as a primer over bare concrete and then used to recoat two hours later as a finish coat. This is a perfect coating solution for corridors and common areas that can only be surfaced overnight. It is also a perfect way to recoat existing industrial flooring systems without work disruption or odor.
Flake or Decorative Quartz Systems: Polyurea 5100 Pigmented can also be used as a one-coat receiver coating for flake or decorative quartz systems. Again, with versatility in mind, the workability of the Polyurea 5100 is superior to competitor’s versions of this product so you can easily install the base coat and then flake or quartz broadcast into it right away. After two hours, the system is ready for a clear seal coat and can have applied an additional seal coat, if required.
Industrial Flooring System Resurfacer: Polyurea 5100 can also serve as the perfect product to reseal or beautify existing industrial mortar flooring systems. By simply preparing the existing surface and resealing it with one or two coats of clear or pigmented Polyurea 5100, the original aesthetics of the system or original texture can easily be recreated.
Having these solutions at your disposal creates more opportunities and makes you an invaluable resource to your clients looking for quality workmanship in a relatively short turnaround.
