Update Your Flooring with Polyaspartic Technology

Liquimix offers industry-leading polyaspartic products that are transforming flooring solutions in Australia. Our high-performance polyaspartic floor coatings, including Opalon S30 Base Coat, Opalon F45 Gloss Top Coat, and Opalon M45 Matt Top Coat, are designed to meet the diverse needs of flooring contractors, construction companies, and asset owners.

Polyaspartic floor coatings are known for their rapid curing time, durability, and resistance to stains and UV light. These coatings are an ideal choice for both commercial and residential applications, providing long-lasting protection and an aesthetically pleasing finish to floors.

Our Opalon F45 Gloss Top Coat, a part of the polyaspartic range, offers attractive, color-fast flooring options. It’s perfect for creating stunning floors with solid colours or decorative flake and glass finishes. This latest generation technology from Liquimix ensures your floors are not only durable but also visually appealing.

The Opalon M45 Matt Top Coat is a 53% volume solids, elastomeric, clear polyaspartic coating that maintains clarity and toughness without yellowing. Ideal for applications where a lower gloss, yet durable finish is desired, this product bridges hairline cracks and absorbs subtle movements in the substrate, ensuring a seamless and resilient finish.

This top coat is especially suitable for areas that experience heavy foot traffic, offering a durable surface that withstands daily wear and tear. Its matte finish reduces glare, making it a comfortable choice for both residential and commercial settings. Additionally, the Opalon M45 Matt Top Coat complements decorative floor coatings, enhancing their appearance while providing an extra layer of protection.

The Opalon S30 Solid Base Coat is an 80% volume solids, elastomeric, glossy-coloured polyaspartic coating. It’s fast curing, low VOC, and is typically applied over itself, Liquimix epoxy coatings or polyurethane sealers. This base coat is the foundation of a robust, beautiful, and glossy floor finish, providing an excellent base for our topcoats.

Its high solid content ensures a thicker, more durable coating, ideal for environments demanding high performance and longevity. The Opalon S30’s compatibility with various sealers and topcoats makes it versatile for a range of applications, from industrial floors to decorative flake flooring. Its rapid curing time allows for quicker project completion, reducing downtime in commercial spaces.

While both polyaspartic and epoxy floor coatings are excellent choices, polyaspartic coatings offer faster curing times and higher resistance to stains and UV damage.

In addition to polyaspartic flooring, Liquimix provides other essential products like water tank linerschemical bunding solutions, and trafficable waterproof membranes. These products complement our floor coatings, offering a complete solution for protecting and enhancing various surfaces.

For state-of-the-art polyaspartic floor coatings, look no further than Liquimix. Our range of Opalon products, combined with our expertise in epoxy coatings and other protective solutions, ensures you receive the best in floor protection and aesthetics.

What is polyaspartic floor coating and how does it work?

Polyaspartic floor coating is a type of aliphatic polyurea coating that cures rapidly through chemical crosslinking of two components. Polyaspartic technology creates a tough, flexible, seamless membrane that bonds to concrete, providing superior abrasion resistance, UV stability, and chemical protection. Unlike epoxy, polyaspartic flooring cures in hours rather than days, making it ideal for time-sensitive commercial and residential applications.

How long does polyaspartic flooring take to cure?

Polyaspartic floor coatings cure significantly faster than traditional epoxy systems. Most polyaspartic formulations are touch-dry within 1–2 hours, ready for light foot traffic in 4–6 hours, and fully trafficable within 24 hours. This rapid cure time allows same-day or next-day return to service, minimising downtime. Full mechanical properties develop within 7 days, though polyaspartic floor coating systems are functional much earlier.

Can polyaspartic floor coatings be applied in cold weather?

Yes, polyaspartic floor coatings offer excellent cold-temperature performance compared to epoxy. Many polyaspartic formulations can be applied in temperatures as low as -5°C to 0°C, though cure times extend in colder conditions. This temperature tolerance makes polyaspartic flooring ideal for winter installations or unheated spaces. However, substrate moisture and humidity still require proper management regardless of application temperature.

Is polyaspartic flooring suitable for outdoor applications?

Absolutely. Polyaspartic floor coatings exhibit superior UV stability, preventing the yellowing and degradation common with aromatic epoxies. The aliphatic chemistry of polyaspartic ensures excellent colour retention and gloss maintenance even under direct sunlight. This UV resistance makes polyaspartic flooring ideal for exterior patios, pool decks, driveways, and commercial walkways where long-term appearance is crucial.

How does polyaspartic compare to epoxy for durability?

Polyaspartic floor coatings typically outperform epoxy in terms of abrasion resistance, flexibility, and chemical durability. The unique molecular structure of polyaspartic provides superior impact resistance and elasticity, allowing it to accommodate substrate movement without cracking. While epoxy offers excellent adhesion, polyaspartic flooring combines this with faster installation, UV stability, and longer service life. Many professionals now specify polyaspartic floor coating systems for high-performance applications.

Do polyaspartic floor coatings require special application skills?

Polyaspartic floor coatings demand professional expertise due to their rapid-cure chemistry. With working times typically 15–30 minutes after mixing, polyaspartic application requires efficient surface preparation, precise mixing, and swift, confident application techniques. Unlike slower-curing materials, mistakes cannot be easily corrected during polyaspartic flooring installation. Professional applicators trained in polyaspartic floor coating systems ensure optimal surface preparation, proper mil thickness, and flawless results.
