UCoat® with UFlek® High Gloss Urethane Top Coat
WATERBASED TOPCOAT: The following information pertains to interior and/or basement areas only. If you are coating a garage, exterior, or other area that requires optimal chemical, abrasion and/or UV resistance, click here.
All UCoat It floor coating finishes begin with application of UCoat water-based epoxy. This system uses UCoat epoxy as a bonding base with a broadcast of UFlek decorative flakes sealed with our UGloss (waterbased) urethane topcoat.
What is UFlek?
UFlek includes your choice of decorative vinyl flake plus UGloss clear urethane topcoat. UGloss is a chemical resistant, water-based urethane top coat specially formulated for use with UCoat. Adding the UFlek topcoat to your UCoat epoxy base will enhance the beauty and durability of your floor while creating a beautiful terrazzo, high-gloss finish.
What are the benefits of applying UFlek?
A UFlek topcoat retains all protective qualities of a UCoat epoxy floor with the added benefits of a UGloss urethane topcoat. Adding a decorative flake to the finish creates a natural pattern that mildly distracts the eye, helping to obscure surface imperfections, dirt, and scuff marks while creating a beautiful simulated terrazzo look.
How is UFlek applied?
Best applied during installation of the UCoat epoxy base, UFlek flakes are hand-broadcast onto your UCoat finish coat as it is rolled out. When dry, UGloss clear is applied to coat over and seal in the flakes. The UGloss topcoat will take approximately 2-3 hrs (at 68°F) to become tack-free. Your new UCoat with UFlek floor will be ready for foot traffic in as little as 24 hours.
How is UFlek supplied?
UFlek is available in do-it yourself kits starting at $194.95 for up to a 24’ x 24’ area (576 sq.ft.) of smooth concrete*. Material-only extender packs are available for larger areas.
NOTE: UFlek is a topcoat only and requires additional purchase, or previous application, of a UCoat epoxy base. |
