What is Hybrid Epoxy Flooring?
Hybrid epoxy flooring combines the durability and strength of an epoxy basecoat with the fast-drying, UV-stable properties of polyaspartic as a topcoat. The result is a highly resilient, long-lasting, commercial grade versatile flooring system perfect for both residential and commercial spaces. Hybrid flooring systems provide the ideal mix of strengths for each application, and have been a commercial standard for the coating's industry.
-
Epoxy Basecoat: Epoxy serves as an excellent basecoat due to its exceptional bonding properties, tensile strength, and wickability into concrete. Epoxy forms a tenaciously strong foundation that ensures the coating is chemically and mechanically bonded to its substate.
-
Polyaspartic Topcoat: Polyaspartic's, which are often used in high-performance environments, offer enhanced UV protection and abrasion resistance, making them ideal for garage floors exposed to vehicle traffic, automotive fluids, and sunlight. They dry much faster than traditional epoxy, allowing for quicker return to service time and a glossy, smooth finish that is UV Stable and won't yellow due to sunlight.
The Benefits of Hybrid Epoxy Flooring

Hybrid epoxy flooring is known for its resilience, epoxy basecoat provides tenacious bond to concrete, in most cases you will see the substrate fail before the epoxy. while the polyaspartic topcoat provides the chemical resistance, flexability, scratch resistance and most importantly the UV stability that is needed in a garage and topcoat. This symbiotic combination of two products makes it a perfect solution for residential garage coatings.
2. Easy Maintenance
