Mixing and Application Instructions
Step 1 Pre Mix
Because this is a water based product, settlement is normal and expected. Blend the bucket of BASE (Part A) for 1 minute before pouring into a larger bucket and combining with activator.
Step 2 The Blend
For 1 Gallon Kits: Pour Part A and Part B into a larger mixing bucket and blend for 2 minutes using a paddle mixer.
For 2 or More Gallons: When mixing multiple kits together (up to 4 gallons in a 5 gallon bucket), you must use a Box Mixer and blend for 2 - 3 minutes to ensure a complete chemical reaction.
Step 3 Application
Pour the mixed material directly onto the floor. While wearing spiked shoes, spread the material evenly using a flat squeegee.
Small Projects: You may utilize a paint tray and dip and roll using a 1/4” nap epoxy roller (ensure the roller is de-shedded prior to use). To avoid roller lines, you may backroll the floor before the product becomes tacky.
Coverage and Technical Specs
All SFPG dependent upon porosity of the concrete:
Primer on Porous Concrete: 200 to 250 SFPG
Grind and Seal Base Coat: 200 to 250 SFPG
Grind and Seal Body Coat: 150 to 200 SFPG
Light Duty DIY Garage Floor (Needs Pigment and Two Layers): 150 to 175 SFPG
Concrete Sealer / Dust Proofing: 200 to 250 SFPG
Densifier Application: When applying to very soft or weak concrete, add 10% water to the first coat and apply as a densifier. The material should be applied to saturate the surface and allow for proper penetration into the concrete. Coverage rates for this application will vary depending on the condition and porosity of the concrete.
Once the densified layer has dried, apply a second full strength coat without dilution. This exception applies only when using the product as a densifier and does not apply to standard primer or coating applications.
Application Temp: Best if applied between 55 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cure Schedule and Recoating
Tack Free / Foot Traffic: 12 Hours
Recoat Window: 24 Hours
Heavy Foot Traffic: 48 Hours
Vehicular Traffic: 72 Hours (3 Days)
When To Sand For Additional Coats: A second coat may be applied within the 24 hour recoat window without sanding. If more than 24 hours have passed since the previous application, sanding is required. Sand the surface using a 100 to 120 mesh sanding screen, then vacuum and wipe the surface with denatured alcohol or acetone to achieve a proper mechanical bond before applying the next coat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add a little water to make the primer spread further?No. You should not thin to expand coverage rate. Thinning disrupts the chemical bond and will result in a weak coat. The only exception is adding 10% water when using the product strictly as a densifier for very soft, crumbly concrete.
Why do I have to sand before applying my metallic or topcoat?Sanding creates a mechanical profile or "teeth" for the next layer to grab onto. Skipping this step leads to poor adhesion and potential delamination.
Which mixer should I use?For single gallon kits, a standard paddle mixer is fine. For anything 2 gallons or larger, a Box Mixer is required to ensure the Part A and Part B are fully integrated without trapping excessive air.
Do I need a primer before epoxy?Yes. A primer improves adhesion, seals concrete pores to reduce outgassing, and helps prevent bubbles in your high build layers.
Can I use this under metallic epoxy?Yes. This is one of the best applications for this product as it ensures the Metallic Dream layer goes down over a sealed surface, preventing bubbles from ruining the finish.
Is this a high build coating?No. Water based epoxy is typically used as a primer or light duty coating, not as a high build system.
Can this be used as a final coat?Yes, in light duty environments such as storage areas or mechanical rooms.
What happens if I skip sanding between coats?Skipping sanding can lead to poor adhesion and potential delamination between layers of the flooring system.
Nukote Premera Fusion Primer
from $165.00
Premera FP1 Fusion Primer
Premera FP1 Fusion Primer is a cutting-edge, fast-drying nano-adhesive primer designed to bond seamlessly to nearly any contaminate-free hard surface. Its unique formulation creates a molecular bridge between coatings and substrates, allowing coatings that would typically struggle to adhere to form a strong, durable bond. This molecular bonding eliminates the need for time-consuming sanding or mechanical abrasion, drastically streamlining your application process and reducing preparation time.
Why Premera FP1 Can Replace Mechanical Abrasion:
Traditionally, surface preparation requires mechanical abrasion like sanding or grinding to roughen the surface, ensuring that the new coating can properly bond. Premera FP1 Fusion Primer uses advanced nanotechnology to form covalent bonds at the molecular level. These bonds penetrate deep into the substrate, anchoring the coating firmly to the surface without needing to roughen it first.
In plain English, this means that instead of having to sand down or grind a concrete or metal surface, Premera FP1 chemically fuses to the surface, creating a strong connection. This not only saves time but also preserves the integrity of the substrate by avoiding potential damage that mechanical abrasion can cause. Premera FP1 allows you to move straight to the next layer without compromising on adhesion quality.
Key Features Of Premera FP1 Fusion Primer:
No need for sanding or mechanical abrasion: Streamlines preparation while maintaining superior bonding.
Strong bonding: Works even on the hardest-to-bond surfaces, including smooth metals.
Fast drying: Quick adhesion promoter for efficient application.
Covalent bonding: Bonds at the molecular level, becoming one with the surface.
Versatile use: Suitable for almost any substrate, including concrete, steel, wood, tile, and fabric.
Virtually invisible: Leaves no visible residue after application.
Moisture and stain resistance: Protects from within, reducing future maintenance costs.
Long-lasting protection: Extends the life of the substrate, protecting it from environmental wear and tear.
Typical Uses of Premera FP1 Fusion Primer
Adhesion layer: Bonds coatings to substrates or between two coatings, ensuring a durable finish.
Substrate variety: Works on painted or unpainted iron, aluminum, copper, stainless steel, powder-coated surfaces, galvanized surfaces, concrete, wood, rubber, plastic, fiberglass, and glass.
Ideal for Concrete Coatings:
For professionals in the concrete coatings industry, Premera FP1 Fusion Primer provides a faster, more efficient way to achieve a perfect bond, especially when used in conjunction with one of our or our popular metallic flooring kits. By eliminating the need for mechanical abrasion, it reduces preparation time while ensuring high-quality results.

Moisture Vapor Barrier Epoxy |...
$240.00
Moisture Vapor Barrier Epoxy | 25 lb Rated 100% Solids MVB
One Stop Epoxy 100% Solids Moisture Vapor Barrier Epoxy is a professional-grade foundation coating engineered to block moisture vapor transmission through concrete slabs. Rated for extreme conditions up to 25 lbs of moisture vapor emission, this product creates a permanent barrier that prevents the most common causes of floor failure: peeling, bubbling, and delamination.
This is not a finish coat or a receiver coat. It is a critical insurance policy used to stabilize concrete before installing a 100% solids epoxy build system.
Why Professionals Use a 25 lb Rated MVB
Concrete is naturally porous and acts like a sponge, releasing moisture vapor for years. When this vapor pressure builds up beneath a standard coating, it physically breaks the bond, leading to total system failure. Our MVB Epoxy solves this by penetrating deep into the concrete capillaries to create a structural seal that can handle high hydrostatic pressure.
Extreme Moisture Resistance: Rated to block up to 25 lbs of vapor transmission—far exceeding standard epoxies.
Prevents Osmotic Blistering: Stops the bubbles that form when moisture is trapped under the floor.
Superior Bond Strength: Provides a stabilized, non-porous surface for your next epoxy layer to lock onto.
Zero VOC Formulation: 100% solids with no odor, making it safe for interior and basement applications.
The Proper System Sequence
To ensure a lifetime bond on slabs with moisture concerns, follow the professional "Step-Up" method:
The Barrier: Apply One Stop MVB Epoxy directly to mechanically profiled concrete (CSP 2-3).
The Build Coat: Once cured, apply a layer of 100% Solids Self Leveling Epoxy. This acts as your pigmented base or "receiver coat" for flakes.
The Finish: Complete the system with a high-performance Polyaspartic or Urethane topcoat.
Mixing and Application Requirements
Pro Tip: Do not broadcast flakes or quartz directly into the MVB. This material must be applied as a continuous, unbroken film to effectively block moisture. Mix for a full 3 minutes to ensure the chemical barrier is fully cross-linked.
Mix Ratio: 2 Parts A to 1 Part B.
Mixer: Use a box or cage style mixer at 300 to 450 RPM.
Coverage: 100 to 150 square feet per gallon depending on porosity.
Dry Time: 8 to 10 hours at room temperature.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a moisture vapor barrier epoxy?If moisture is present, unknown, or if you are installing over a slab on grade, this is a necessary preventative step to avoid total coating failure.
How do I know if my concrete has a moisture problem?Visible signs include efflorescence (white powder) or dark spots. The only certain way is testing, but applying MVB is the safest preventative measure for any slab where the history is unknown.
Can I use this for basement floors?Yes. Basements are inherently prone to moisture issues. Using this vapor barrier is the best way to ensure your basement epoxy floor never peels or bubbles.
Can I broadcast flakes directly into the MVB?No. The Moisture Vapor Barrier must be applied as a clean, continuous film to seal the slab. After it cures, you apply a 100% solids epoxy layer to serve as your pigmented receiver coat for flakes.
Is this required for garage floors?It is highly recommended in humid environments, on older slabs, or if you are a professional installer offering a long-term warranty to your clients.
What happens if I skip this step?Skipping moisture control on a high-vapor slab leads to osmotic blistering and total system delamination, requiring a costly total replacement.
Can this be used as a finished floor?No. This is a functional base layer designed to stabilize the slab. It must be covered by a 100% solids epoxy build coat and an appropriate topcoat.
What should I use over this product?Typically, installers follow this with a 100% solids epoxy (like our Self Leveling or 150 Fast Cure) before moving to their decorative broadcast or topcoat.
How long do I have to wait before applying my next coat?The material is generally dry to the touch in 8 to 10 hours. You should apply your next coat of epoxy within 24 hours to ensure a strong chemical bond.
What is the mix ratio?The mix ratio is 2 parts Part A to 1 part Part B. Mix thoroughly with a drill mixer for a full 3 minutes before pouring.
