How to Use Epoxy Resin Flooring

Epoxy resin flooring is one of the most widely used flooring systems. Its main characteristics include seamless flatness, excellent wear and pressure resistance, acid and alkali resistance, strong impact resistance, easy cleaning, and a rich variety of color options. According to functional performance, it can be divided into glossy type and anti-slip type.

Classification of Epoxy Flooring Systems

e. Heat Insulation Coating Series

Construction Process

1. Waterproof Treatment

   Keep the base surface dry with moisture content no higher than 7%.
   
   
2. Base Surface Preparation

   Grind, repair and dedust the base thoroughly. No unauthorized access is allowed on the finished treated surface.
   
   
3. Epoxy Primer Construction

   Roll on epoxy primer with superior permeability and adhesion to enhance the bonding strength of the base.
   
   
4. Epoxy Intermediate Coat

   Add an appropriate amount of quartz sand into the epoxy coating, then trowel evenly on the surface.
   
   
5. Epoxy Putty Skimming

   Treat the surface to achieve a pore-free, seamless finish without construction tool marks.
   
   
6. Self-Leveling Topcoat

   Apply one coat of epoxy self-leveling topcoat. Ensure uniform color distribution and avoid hollow bubbling during construction.
