1 - What does 'polyaspartic' mean?
Basically, polyaspartic substances are a type of polyurethane - that is, a synthetic plastic polymer. The details would only interest a chemical engineer. They were originally developed by the Bayer Material Science company in the early 1990s, and since then, have been rapidly gaining a reputation as superior all-around flooring solution.
2 - Where can polyaspartic floor coatings be applied?
Generally speaking, polyaspartic coatings
can be used in almost any situation where you'd have a concrete substrate with a resinous coating on top. It's a popular alternative to epoxy coatings. Along with garages and other vehicle buildings, these coatings are also seen in warehouses, hospitals, chemical labs, commercial buildings, and almost any other situation where a uniform, easily cleaned, highly durable surface is called for.
3 - How long does a polyaspartic floor coating take to dry and cure?
Just a few hours! This is one of its big advantages. Unlike other resinous coatings, such as epoxy, installation and curing can usually be accomplished in a single day. This makes it much easier to install, as well as being much less disruptive to a workspace.
4 - Can polyaspartic floor coatings be used in low temperatures?
Yes! The coating can be applied even in cold weather, in temperatures below freezing. Once hardened, the surface is unaffected by any cold temperature you're likely to see.
5 - Could polyaspartic floor coatings be used outside?
Yes,. The material itself is highly resistant to weather as well as UV, and it won't fade or lose strength even in direct sunlight.
