CLEAR EPOXY TOPCOATS
#745 DECOWEAR
Economical Clear Epoxy – 100% Solids
745 DecoWearTM is a two (2) component 100% solids water clear polymer specifically formulated to be a base and intermediate coat for the DecoFlake and DecoQuartz decorative flooring systems. DecoWearTM is formulated with a cycloaliphatic curing agent and may be used as a clear topcoat where minimal UV discoloration can be tolerated.
745 DecoWearTM may be applied at temperatures down to 130 C (550 F). 745 DecoWearTM is USDA approved, meets VOC guidelines and has no offensive odors during installation.
DecoFlake and DecoQuartz are decorative floor systems, combining a 100% solids pigmented or non-pigmented base coat, decorative colored acrylic flakes or colored quartz granules, and a clear epoxy or polyurea protective topcoat. The seamless systems are impervious to most common chemicals, provide durable floor surfaces that require minimum maintenance and are an ideal alternative to vinyl tile or standard solid color epoxy coatings. DecoFlake and DecoQuartz are excellent for interior and exterior applications (with the appropriate UV color-stable topcoat) or where moderate traffic can be anticipated. Both may be installed with a variety of slip-resistant textures.
DecoFlake can be installed as a random flake (light broadcast) or as a full flake (broadcast to rejection) system.
