100% solids epoxy floor coating
Product description
The ideal product
to eliminate dust,
protect
your garage
100% Solids Epoxy is a two-component, solvent-free, odorless epoxy-based coating that seals dust into the concrete and leaves your garage floor clean and washable. This floor protection system offers a very strong high-gloss finish, resistant to abrasion and chemical agents. Unlike floor paint, it does not peel under car tires. It was designed for industrial, commercial, and residential projects. Since drying and hardening occur through catalysis, no harmful solvents or odors are emitted during application. 100% Solids Epoxy is approved by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). It is a relatively simple concept, requiring minimal manual skills, allowing DIYers to achieve professional results.

Passeport Élite 100% Solids Epoxy, ideal for all your interior concrete projects! This coating is an effective solution for aesthetic and durable concrete floors.
Does not apply to vertical surfaces exceeding 12 inches, as it is self-leveling.
Please note that the epoxy finish will yellow over time when exposed to daylight. For this reason, Super White shade #433 should be avoided with epoxy and it is preferable to do the work with non-yellowing Polyaspartic.
Can be applied on finish-grade plywood (screwed and glued) indoors only. Holes or joints in panels must be filled with epoxy filler paste beforehand. Not recommended on outdoor wood plywood decks, as the coating will peel due to moisture absorbed by this type of unstable material.

Surface preparation
Proper surface preparation is crucial. Concrete must be clean, dry, and free of all grease and contaminants.
Cleaning
Wash the surface using Passeport Élite Concrete Preparation. Rinse thoroughly and let dry for at least 48 hours. For oil stains, use Passeport Élite Degreaser.
Sanding/Grinding
Resurfacing with a diamond-head polisher is by far the best surface preparation, but it can be replaced by sanding for most residential projects. Sand the surface using a sander equipped with 60-grit sandpaper to remove old layers of paint.
Dust Removal
Completely remove dust from the surface using a shop vacuum. Clear the surface of all contaminants and fine concrete dust.
Patching
Widen cracks with a grinder to release loose particles and clean them with a shop vacuum. Use a concrete crack filler. Passeport Élite 100% Solids Epoxy can be applied 4 to 6 hours later.
Catalysis and Mixing
Stir each component separately. Pour all the hardener (component B) into the epoxy resin (component A). Mix well for 4 minutes at low speed (300 to 450 rpm) using a drill equipped with a mixer. Avoid mixing at too high a speed to prevent bubbles. Regularly scrape the sides and bottom of the bucket with a stick to obtain a homogeneous mixture. Let the mixture sit for 2 minutes. Apply entirely within the next 30 minutes.
Important
Proper stirring is essential for the hardener to act uniformly. The product must be applied within 30 minutes of mixing.
Application:
Pour the product directly onto the floor in several ribbons. Quickly perform the edging with a brush. Then, use a squeegee to spread the product, and back-roll (left to right, then front to back). It is important to ensure uniform spreading over the entire surface and avoid creating puddles.
