Epoxy vs Polyaspartic Tested
See How Our Polyaspartic Coating Compares to Epoxy in a Number of Hands on Tests.
Impact Resistance
Impact resistance greatly affects the long term adhesion as well as the wear and tear of your floor coating.
Stretch & Flex
Flexibility allows your concrete coating to bounce back and not chip or peel when impacted on.
Stains & Spills
Spills happen, and with FloorTek's pure polyaspartic all you need for an easy cleanup is a towel and general purpose cleaner.
UV Stability
Epoxy will yellow over time, and while polyaspartic is better, FloorTek's polyaspartic is especially designed to withstand exposure to UV light.
Epoxy vs Polyaspartic Impact Resistance Test
Impact resistance greatly affects the long term adhesion as well as the wear and tear of your floor coating.
While epoxy is inexpensive and is widely available, its impact resistance is quite low. If you are looking for high impact resistance for your floor coating – we recommend FloorTek’s polyaspartic coatings which is designed with high impact resistance.
Epoxy vs Polyaspartic Stretch & Flexibility Test
When installing concrete coating it is really important to make sure the coating is flexible and is able to shift and move along with the surface.
For most residential installations we are dealing with floating slabs of concrete which are designed to flex and move with the shifting Earth. It’s important that any coating that we’re installing is able to shift and move along with this substrate for a long term coating solution.
Stains & Chemical Resistance
While floors may look the same day one, it’s important to pick a floor coating that will withstand the test of time.
FloorTek’s polyaspartic is chemically resistant, making even the toughest spills easy to clean with just a towel and general purpose cleaner.
UV Stability Test
UV light will make a common polyaspartic and epoxy yellow or amber over time.FloorTek’s products are designed and formulated to withstand the harshest of weather conditions. From pool decks to patios, driveways to garages – we want to make sure that our coating is going to fit the needs that you may have.
