Epoxy Floor Coating Systems

Types of epoxy floor coating

• Self-leveling epoxy: a smooth, seamless main coat. DEMCO EPOX 2000 SELF gives a 1 mm dry film at 1.6 kg/m²; DEMCO EPOX 2004 SELF/FAST is for floors that must reopen to traffic quickly.
• Textured (orange-peel) epoxy: DEMCO EPOX 160 TIX for slip-resistant floors, applied at 0.350–0.500 kg/m² per coat.
• Thin-film epoxy floor paint: solvent-free DEMCO EPOX 150 TOP COAT and water-based DEMCO EPOX 185 TOP COAT/W.
• Chemical-resistant epoxy: DEMCO EPOX 1900 SELF/C and novolac DEMCO EPOX 192 NOVOLAC TOPCOAT for floors exposed to high concentrations of acids, alkalis and solvents.
• Food-contact epoxy: self-leveling DEMCO EPOX 2700 SELF.
• Conductive and antistatic (ESD) epoxy: see conductive coatings.

System build-up and coverage

1. Primer: solvent-free penetrating primer DEMCO EPOX 100 PR, 0.350–0.500 kg/m² per coat.
2. Scratch coat: DEMCO EPOX 2001 SELF/MID COAT, about 1.7 kg/m² per mm.
3. Main coat: 1.6 kg/m² per mm for self-leveling epoxy.
