What are Polyaspartic Coating and Sealers?

Polyaspartic coating is an alternative to epoxy and resembles polyurethane. Polyaspartic is a hybrid material that is relatively new to the market and possesses strong resistance to corrosion. Unlike other sealers, polyaspartic sealer cures by cross-linking two components as opposed to humidity or temperature. This allows the sealer to be applied to a wide range of environments as it can cure quickly.

Benefits of Polyaspartic Coating

• Exceptional durability
• Cures quickly (typically 1-4 hours)
• Low odour
• High gloss
• Resistance to abrasion and chemicals
• Highly pigmented for excellent opacity
• UV stability

Where can I use Polyaspartic Coating?

Polyaspartic coating is the top choice for industrial, commercial and residential concrete flooring. It is commonly found in the following settings:

• Restaurants, pubs and bars: Polyaspartic clear coating has chemical resistance and stain proofing properties, making it an ideal choice for food and beverage establishments. The coating protects the floor from heavy foot traffic, grease, stains and spills, and can protect intricate floor designs from damage.
• Retail and commercial stores: Polyaspartic sealers are a popular choice for retail owners as it can preserve the appearance of the floor and impress customers. The sealer can also withstand heavy foot traffic and is a common choice for shopping mall floors.

FAQs

How long does polyaspartic floor coating last?

One of the main advantages of polyaspartic flooring is its fast cure time. The new floor can be ready to use in just a few short hours following application. Polyaspartic floor coating prevents premature wear and tear of floors due to abrasions and spills, with the coating lasting up to 20 years.

Is polyaspartic flooring scratch resistant?

Due to its hybrid make, polyaspartic flooring is one of the most resilient floor coatings in the industry. It is incredibly scratch resistant, particularly more so than the popular epoxy flooring. Polyaspartic coating is an ideal choice for environments with high foot traffic, heavy machinery and chemicals as it can protect your floors from spills and scratches.

What’s the difference between polyaspartic coating and polyurethane?

While polyaspartic is similar to polyurethane, one of the key differences is the cure time. Polyurethane can take up to 48 hours to cure, whereas polyaspartic coating can often cure in as little as 4 hours. Sun exposure can cause polyurethane to yellow, whereas polyaspartic coating is not affected by temperature and will retain its original colour. The hybrid material used to create polyaspartic sealers allows it to be more versatile and be more impact resistant than polyurethane.
