Wykamol EP40 Epoxy Floor Coating System – Finish Top Coat

Product Description

This is part of the Wykamol EP40 Epoxy Floor Coating System consists of the EP40 Epoxy Primer and EP40 Epoxy Top Finish coat. This listing is for the Finishing Top Coat Only (available in grey or clear) so you may also need the Wykamol EP40 Primer.

This Wykamol EP40 Epoxy Floor Coating System system is fantastic for repairing old damp concrete floors – often laid in the past with no damp proof membrane, instead of hacking up the old floor, relaying the concrete on a new DPM and waiting for it all to dry before covering the floor (which often takes months) you can repair the old floor and install a new surface with self leveller using grip grit to form a key. The savings (depending on the size of floor) can run into thousands of pounds and knock months off your schedules.

After applying the Wykamol EP40 Epoxy Floor Coating System, floors become easier to clean with a hard wearing, dust free, waterproof, impervious finish and are substantially more resistant to damage by chemicals, fuels and lubricants.

3. Spread the product as thinly as possible while achieveing maximum coverage. Ensure no pooling or excess product remains.
4. Only 1 application of EP40 Epoxy Finish Coat is necessary for areas which will experience light traffic, such as school corridors. 2 coats should be applied in areas of medium traffic, such as warehouses.

Achieving Slip Resistance:
