Self Leveling 100% Solids Industrial Grade Epoxy
One Stop Epoxy Self Leveling 100% Solids Industrial Grade Epoxy is a contractor grade, two component, high build epoxy floor coating designed for residential, commercial, and industrial concrete floors. This self leveling epoxy creates a smooth, seamless, high gloss surface with excellent adhesion, strong chemical resistance, and the build needed for long lasting performance in demanding environments.
Sold as a convenient 3 gallon short fill kit, this epoxy comes in clear and pre pigmented in White, Black, Lite Gray, Med Gray, and Tan. That saves buyers from having to purchase separate pigments and eliminates the need for an extra mixing bucket on full kits. Whether you are installing a solid color epoxy floor, a partial flake floor, a full flake broadcast floor, or using it as a base coat for a metallic epoxy floor, this is a highly versatile 100% solids epoxy built for real results.
What Is 100% Solids Epoxy?
100% solids epoxy is an epoxy coating that contains no water or added solvent. That means the thickness you apply wet is the thickness that remains after cure. Compared with lower solids coatings, it gives you more build, better body, and a heavier duty finish that is better suited for demanding garage, commercial, and industrial floors.

What Makes This Different from Basic Epoxy Coatings
Not all epoxy floor coatings are created equal. A true 100% solids epoxy provides more build, better body, and stronger long term performance than lower solids coatings. This product is designed for buyers who want a real epoxy floor system, not a thin coating that looks good for a short time and then wears out early.
Because it is sold pre pigmented in a short fill kit, it also removes some of the hassle and extra cost that come with systems requiring separate color packs and additional mixing containers.

Mixing and Application Requirements
Proper mixing and surface preparation are critical for a successful epoxy floor installation.
-
Mix Ratio: Two component system, pre measured 2:1 for immediate in bucket mixing
-
Mix Time: Mix for a full 3 minutes
-
Mixer Type: Full kits should be mixed with a box or cage style mixer
-
Paddle Mixer Use: A paddle mixer should only be used for 2 gallons or less
-
Mixing Speed: Mix at 300 to 450 RPM
-
Bucket Time: Approximately 8 minutes at 75°F
-
Working Time: Approximately 30 minutes at 75°F once poured onto the floor
Important: Once mixed, get the material out of the bucket and onto the floor immediately. Epoxy cures through an exothermic reaction and can heat up quickly if left sitting in mass.
Contractor Tip: Because this is an exothermic system, leaving mixed epoxy in the bucket can cause it to heat rapidly and shorten working time. Pour it out immediately in ribbons across the floor and keep the crew moving to avoid epoxy setting up in the bucket.
Surface Preparation Still Matters
Even the best epoxy floor coating will not perform properly over weak or poorly prepared concrete. Concrete should be mechanically prepared before application. Remove contaminants, weak surface material, and previous coatings as needed to create the proper profile for adhesion.
Application Options and System Uses
Solid Color Epoxy Floors
For buyers wanting a clean, uniform, seamless floor, this self leveling epoxy is an excellent choice for solid color epoxy floors. It creates a high build, high gloss finish that is easy to clean and ideal for garages, utility spaces, warehouses, and commercial interiors.
Partial Flake Epoxy Floors
Use this epoxy as a pigmented base coat and broadcast vinyl flakes lightly across the surface to create texture and visual depth while still allowing the base color to show through. Topcoat the system for long term wear resistance and easier maintenance.
Full Flake Epoxy Floors
For full broadcast systems, apply the epoxy and broadcast vinyl flakes to rejection. After scraping and vacuuming, experienced installers can topcoat with PolyGloss 85 Polyaspartic. Buyers looking for more working time may prefer PolyGloss Slow Go.
Metallic Epoxy Floors
This epoxy also works well as a base coat for metallic floor systems where a smooth, uniform, properly pigmented foundation is needed before adding metallic pigments and decorative movement.
Commercial Grade Floor Systems
For heavy duty commercial applications, many installers begin with One Stop Epoxy Moisture Vapor Epoxy when moisture control is needed. Once cured, this self leveling epoxy can be applied as the build coat, followed by a wear layer such as a urethane topcoat for added surface performance.
Non Slip Industrial Floor Systems
For aggressive texture and added slip resistance, installers may use a moisture vapor epoxy base, apply this product, and broadcast kiln dried sand, silica sand, or aluminum oxide to rejection. After cure, the floor can be grouted and sealed with the appropriate topcoat for the intended service environment.
Approximate Coverage Rates
- Pigmented receiver coat for flakes: 133 to 150 SFPG
- Commercial and industrial applications: 100 to 135 SFPG
- Metallic floors base coat: 135 to 150 SFPG
- Grout coat primer on porous concrete: add 10% xylene and pull tightly with a flat, stiff squeegee at 200 to 400 SFPG
