Your Guide to a Perfect UCoat It Floor
Follow these simple, professional steps to apply your UCoat It floor coating for a durable, high-gloss finish that lasts.
1
Preparation is Key
- Ensure the floor is clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or old coatings.
- Repair any cracks or imperfections with a suitable filler.
- Use a UCoat It-approved etcher or grinder to profile the concrete for optimal adhesion.
Safety Tip: Wear appropriate PPE—gloves, safety glasses, and a respirator—during preparation.
2
Application Process
- Mix your chosen UCoat It moisture-cured polyurethane or epoxy system thoroughly according to the product label.
- Apply a thin, even primer coat using a roller or squeegee. Allow it to tack up as specified.
- Apply the topcoat in the opposite direction of the primer for complete coverage.
Recommended Product: UCoat It's professional-grade moisture-cured polyurethane for superior moisture resistance and durability.
3
Curing & Maintenance
- Allow the coating to cure fully. This can take 24-72 hours depending on temperature and humidity.
- Avoid heavy traffic or placing furniture until fully cured.
- For long-term care, clean with a pH-neutral cleaner and avoid abrasive tools.
