Epoxy Resine

FloorsBy 3d Royal Floors

About Epoxy Resin FloorsEpoxy coatings are fantastic products that can create great seamless resinous floors.

A range of self-smoothing pigmented Epoxy Resin floor screeds available in a wide range of colours. Suitable for areas subject to foot traffic, forklift and vehicular traffic, such as factories, garages, showrooms, workrooms and industrial applications.

Here are the top 7 steps :

Surface Preparation

1. A surface needs to be properly prepared. This means it should be

clean

dry

dust-free and

the substrate must be ground or shot blasted

Solvent based Epoxy products do not bond well with humidity

the surface is completely dry

no pipes or taps dripping

no rising humidity from beneath the ground

Surface Preparati

on

This happens when the Epoxy floor product is much stronger than the substrate (for example low –quality cement)

What ends up happening is that you don’t actually have the epoxy layer detaching from the cement

Substrate

Floors experience heavy wear and tear Don’t assume the industrial floor screed will simply just stick to the substrate. Always make sure that the primer is suitable for the substrate

Use suitable primer

Make sure the substrate is compatible for epoxies both in terms of adhesion as well as tensile strength.

For example never coat epoxy on wood!

Wood is far more flexible than epoxies which leads to the epoxy cracking simply because it cannot follow the expansions of the wood floor.

Compatible Surface

All oils, greases, residues must be properly cleaned before attempting any type of fresh coating. Don’t expect proper bonding otherwise.

Contaminated Floors

This was caused by a faulty mix between the resin and the hardener:

Mixing incorrect or inaccurate proportions of the components

Not mixing the material properly or for a long enough time

Mix the Resin and

the Hardener
