Description
2K Epoxy Resin Floor Primer Sealer, is the ideal solution for protecting concrete floors in high-traffic areas. This durable, two-part epoxy primer is specially designed for garage floors, industrial factories, warehouses, commercial kitchens, and retail shop floors, offering superior protection and longevity. Its robust formula creates a hard-wearing, chemical-resistant coating, perfect for areas exposed to heavy footfall, machinery, or harsh cleaning agents. Additionally, it doubles as an efficient dust sealer for concrete floors, ensuring a clean, dust-free environment.
The 2K Epoxy Resin Floor Primer Sealer can be left as a standalone protective coating, offering excellent durability and a mirror-like gloss finish. However, for even greater protection and aesthetic enhancement, you can apply our Two Pack Epoxy Floor Paint as a top coat.
Important Notice:
Do not apply two pack epoxy paint in temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius, as the cross-linking of the paint and catalyst will not occur, preventing the coating from fully drying.
Please note that the clear version of our 2K Epoxy Resin Floor Primer Sealer is not fully translucent. Due to the natural colouring of the resin, it has a slight yellow tinge.
It is also essential to remember that two pack epoxy paints cannot be applied over existing single pack paints, as they will react with them.

Application
Painting a Bare Concrete Floor:
Never pre-seal the floor prior to painting, particularly with latex or PVC sealers, as paint will not adhere properly.
Ensure good ventilation to allow vapour to escape; this is also essential for maintaining drying times. Without air movement, the coating cannot dry effectively.
New concrete floors should be left to dry for at least 3 months before painting. Any remaining moisture in the concrete can lead to paint delamination.
Step 1 - Clean: Ensure the substrate is completely dry and free of any dirt, oil, or grease.
Step 2 - Prime: Thin the first coat by 20% with T0200 Epoxy Thinners to ensure the primer impregnates the concrete.
Step 3 - Topcoat: Apply the second coat of Clear Sealer within 12-24 hours of the first coat for optimal adhesion and performance. Alternatively, you can choose to apply the Two Pack Epoxy Floor Paint top coat within the same timeframe.
Mixing
- Use a mixer on a slow-running drill or a palette knife on smaller cans to mix the paint and catalyst together. An egg whisk, screwdriver, or small stick that doesn’t reach the bottom of the can is insufficient for proper mixing.
- Mix the catalyst into the paint for 3-5 minutes, allow to stand for a minute, and then repeat.
- Combine the catalyst into the can before pouring it into a paint tray.
- If you are thinning the paint, this is added once the paint has been catalysed.
- Ensure all components are thoroughly mixed to avoid any colour inconsistencies or drying issues.
