There are two competing products in the garage floor coating industry: the usual applied epoxy/polyurethane coatings, and the relatively newer polyurea coatings. First, the coatings are chemically united; they portion a common chemistry.
Both coatings have remarkable adhesion properties, and are the entire durable, at least compared to typical paint products. Another introductory mean is that although advertised as “polyureas”, garage floor polyurea products are in fact hybrids. A utter polyurea cures in 15 seconds or in view of that–obviously not the whole easy to apply unless it is sprayed. Pure polyureas are sprayed, and used in industrial applications.
Strenghth and Adhesion
Adhesion is important because garage floors take a beating. If the adhesion in the middle of coating and paste floor fails, later the project fails. Both polyureas and epoxies adhere tenaciously to the surfaces to which they are applied-but without help gone the underlying surface is prepared proficiently.
The problem behind polyureas is that the edited aeration become early may not sufficiently “damp” the real surface to which it is applied. This wetting of a surface means absorption, which means adhesion. We know that Premier Garage uses some form of hybrid, and the recent accomplishment brought by some of its franchisees functioning, as one of its claims, allegations that PremierGarage’s hybrid products lack adhesion. Do you know about polyurea coating?
It’s unaided an affirmation even even though, and I would suspect that the shackle may lie in the surface preparation, rather than the coating properties. Here in Austin, the one Premier Garage installation I observed was prepared taking into account an unpleasant resolved, and not by now a mammal grinder. That’s a recipe for crash–the best preparation is always surface grinding.
All in all, polyurea hybrids and epoxy coatings, at the forefront applied beyond adeptly-prepared surfaces, have on severity of within ample limits adhesion properties to adhere to even imperfect definite for at least a decade.
