Polyaspartic
floor coatings

Florida sun is hard on coatings. Polyaspartic topcoats are chosen for UV stability and a faster return to service than standard epoxy.

What is polyaspartic coating?

Polyaspartic is a type of aliphatic polyurea coating. It is often used as a topcoat over a flake or quartz floor because it resists yellowing in sunlight better than standard epoxy and cures faster, so the space is back in use sooner. It can also be used for the full system on some floors.

Best for

  • Garages with the door open to the sun
  • Covered patios, lanais and porches
  • Pool cages and outdoor kitchens
  • Projects that need a quick turnaround
  • Topcoat upgrade for flake and quartz floors

Straight talk

Every system has tradeoffs. Here is what we tell customers before they choose:

  • Fast cure means it has to be installed by a crew that knows it. It is not a DIY product.
  • Exact cure and walk-on times depend on the product, temperature and humidity. We give you your times in writing on install day.
  • Prep still matters most. A great topcoat cannot fix a poorly prepped slab.

How we install it

The polyaspartic coating process

  1. Moisture and slab check

    Florida slabs and humidity are checked before we choose products.

  2. Diamond grind

    The surface is ground and repaired so the system bonds.

  3. Base and broadcast

    Base coat and flake or quartz broadcast go down.

  4. Polyaspartic topcoat

    The UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat seals the floor.

  5. Return to service

    We tell you when you can walk, then drive, on your new floor.

FAQ

Polyaspartic Coating questions

Is polyaspartic better than epoxy?
Each has a job. Epoxy is a strong base coat that bonds well. Polyaspartic is often the better topcoat where sunlight and fast turnaround matter. Many of the best garage floors use both.
Will my floor turn yellow in the sun?
Standard epoxy can amber when exposed to UV light. That is why we recommend a UV-stable topcoat such as polyaspartic for sun-exposed areas.
Can it go outside?
Polyaspartic topcoats are used on covered patios, lanais and pool cages. Fully exposed areas need a review of drainage and moisture first.
