The three types are water based, solvent based, and 100% solids. Epoxy FloorCoating benefits: These formulations allow for varying degrees of thickness from 3 mils to 10 mils (A mil is a thousandth of an inch) for a single coating. They allow for ease of application, special bonding characteristics, and VOC considerations. Epoxy easily bonds with new or old concrete. The best epoxy formulations are 100% solids and provide for an extremely hard, thick, and impact resistant surface.
