Product information "WATCO Epoxyguard Safe Hygiene – easy-clean anti-slip epoxy coating"
Epoxyguard Safe Hygiene (sold in the UK as Safety Coat Hygienic) is the version of WATCO's water-based anti-slip epoxy coating for areas where cleanliness matters as much as safe footing. The finely textured surface gives grip yet is easy to keep clean with normal floor cleaning.
Like the other Epoxyguard Safe grades, the coating dries quickly, so according to the manufacturer two coats in one day are possible. It is reinforced with very hard wax and ceramic, and the aggregate is pre-blended. It is applied to concrete and wood, including over existing paint; on very smooth substrates the manufacturer recommends Premium Special Primer.
Typical applications
- Production and storage areas with high cleaning demands
- Welfare, changing and circulation areas
- Slip-prone indoor floors with frequent wet cleaning
Features
