150 Fast Cure 100% Solids Epoxy | Primer, Base Coat & MVB One Stop Epoxy 150 Fast Cure (150FC) is a contractor grade, rapid-curing 100% solids epoxy engineered specifically for high-efficiency broadcast systems. This versatile resin functions as a primer, base coat, and Moisture Vapor Barrier (MVB) in a single application, allowing crews to complete full flake, quartz, and sand broadcast floors in a fraction of the time. Designed for one day floor installations, 150FC performs exceptionally well in hot and humid environments, offering a rapid return to service without the "flash cure" risks of inferior fast-setting epoxies. The 150FC Technical Advantage 3-in-1 System: Acts as a high-strength primer, pigmented base coat, and MVB rated up to 12 lbs. 90-Minute Recoat: Fast cure profile allows for scraping and top coating in as little as 90 minutes in warmer temperatures. Extended Working Time: Provides 20 to 30 minutes of open time on the floor nearly double that of traditional rapid cure epoxies. UV Considerations: Engineered for full broadcast systems (flake, quartz, sand) where the epoxy is fully covered to prevent visible ambering. Best Uses for Fast Cure Epoxy One Day Flake Floors: The industry standard for rapid garage and commercial prep. Sand & Quartz Broadcasts: Ideal for industrial non-slip systems requiring fast turnaround. Humid Climates: Specifically formulated to remain manageable in high-humidity markets like Florida. Mixing and Application (Critical for Success) Pro Warning: 150FC is for experienced installers. It requires mechanical surface prep (CSP 2-3) and must be poured in ribbons immediately after mixing to avoid exotherm in the bucket. Mix Ratio: 2 Parts A to 1 Part B. Mix Time: 2 minutes if above 75°F; 3 minutes if below 75°F. Mixer: Use a box or cage style mixer for full kits. Working Time: 20–30 minutes depending on ambient temperature. Frequently Asked Questions Is this a good epoxy for garage floors?Yes. It is the preferred base coat for professional installers performing one day full flake garage floor installations. What makes 150FC different from other fast cure epoxies?150FC includes a built-in moisture vapor barrier (up to 12 lbs) and offers significantly more working time on the floor than standard rapid-set resins. Can I use this for a one day flake floor?Yes. This is the primary use for 150FC. Its fast cure profile allows you to prep, base, flake, and topcoat in a single shift. Why can’t this be used for solid color floors?Because 150FC is a fast-cure aromatic epoxy, it will amber under UV exposure. It must be used in a broadcast system where it is completely covered by flakes, sand, or quartz. Is this product beginner friendly?No. 150FC is designed for experienced contractors who understand how to manage fast-curing materials and jobsite pacing. Does this replace a moisture vapor barrier?Yes. It is rated to block moisture vapor transmission up to 12 lbs, eliminating the need for a separate MVB primer step. How long does 150FC take to dry before I can topcoat?Depending on temperature and humidity, you can typically sweep, vacuum, and topcoat in as little as 90 minutes. What is the working time for this fast cure epoxy?Depending on temperature, you will have between 20 and 30 minutes of working time once the material is poured onto the floor. Can 150FC be used outdoors?Yes, provided it is part of a full broadcast system where the epoxy is entirely covered and protected from UV exposure. Do I need to add solvent to thin this product?No. This is a true 100% solids epoxy. Adding solvents will compromise the cure and the moisture vapor barrier rating.

The product is not immune to plasticizer transfer from rubber tires; tires should cool down before parking on the coated surface. Recommended System Setup For a guaranteed bond and long term finish, follow this professional stack: Primer: LAB Surface Epoxy Primer (recommended for high traffic) or LABPOX 35 (self priming). Base/Body: Apply LABPOX 35 (Colored). Topcoat: Seal with LABFAST, LABSHIELD ECO, or AQUALAB PUR for additional UV and chemical protection. Mixing and Application Requirements Application Equipment 1/8 inch notched rubber squeegee 3/8 inch nap woven shed resistant roller cover 3 inch chip brush Mixing Instructions Precision in the mixing process is critical to ensure the chemical bond and structural integrity of the LABPOX 35 system. Pre-Mix Part A: Before final mixing, pre-mix Part A at low speed using a Paddle Mixer and a drill. Mixing should be done until the settlement comes off the bottom of the bucket and the color become uniform. Combine Components: Pour 2 containers of Part A (Base) into a large mixing bucket, being careful not to pour material onto the sides of the larger bucket. Add Activator: Pour the Part B (Activator) directly into the center of the large bucket. Again, ensure no material gets on the sides of the Base bucket; failing to do so may leave unmixed resin that causes soft spots on your finished floor. Mixing Time: Mix full kits with a Box Mixer for 2 minutes. Use a low-speed drill (300 to 450 RPM) to minimize air entrapment. DO NOT attempt to mix a full kit of this product with a Paddle Mixer. The volume is insufficient for a thick, heavy duty epoxy such as this. Scrape Sides: During the mixing process, make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing container thoroughly so no unmixed material remains. Immediate Placement: Once the product is properly mixed, it needs to be immediately poured onto the floor. Leaving mixed material for too long in a mixing pail will create an exothermic reaction (rapid heat buildup), rendering the product unusable. Application Procedure Application Procedure Pour mixed material in a 20 foot long 12 inch wide ribbon Do not drain or scrape remaining material from the bucket onto the floor. Spread to uniform thickness with a notched squeegee and roll North South and back roll East West to achieve uniform coverage. Roller should be a 3/8 inch shed resistant epoxy roller cover. PRO TIP: If pinholes appear during application, allow sufficient time to go back and burst them by rolling back and forth or with another squeegee pass. For extremely porous slabs, sand and plug persistent pinholes with epoxy gel after the first coat has cured. Frequently Asked Questions Is LABPOX 35 good for oil contaminated floors?Yes. It is considered best in class for resistance to oil and other contaminants that typically cause fisheyes or adhesion failure in standard epoxies. Can this be used as a self priming coat?Yes. LABPOX 35 is self priming and specifically designed to penetrate porous concrete slabs to reduce outgassing. Is this product beginner friendly?While it offers a comfortable 45 minute working time, proper mechanical surface preparation (CSP 2) and moisture testing are strictly required for a professional grade installation. How do I handle very porous concrete?On very porous slabs, use a tight squeegee with no back roll for the first coat to properly seal the surface before applying the body coat. What is the mix ratio for LABPOX 35?It is a two component system with a precise mix ratio of 2 Parts A to 1 Part B (2A:1B) by volume. Does this epoxy amber or yellow?Like most 100 percent solids epoxies, it is not UV stable. For maximum UV protection and to slow yellowing, a topcoat like LABFAST or AQUALAB PUR is strongly recommended. How soon can I walk on the floor?The floor can typically accept foot traffic in 24 hours, but full chemical cure takes 7 days. Do not clean the surface with water or chemicals during the first week. Is this product safe for interior use?Yes. LABPOX 35 is 100 percent solids and VOC free, making it virtually odor free and suitable for interior manufacturing, commercial, or residential projects.
