How often do I need to maintain epoxy floors?
Innovacoatings recommends washing all floors at least once a week, and high-traffic areas daily, using the proper brush and detergent. Areas in which oil and grease are prevalent will also require daily attention.
Do epoxy floors scratch easily?
Epoxy flooring doesn’t scratch easily due to it being a hard resin coating, however like any surface if something sharp enough scratches the surface, scratches may appear.
How long until you can walk on an epoxy floor?
Once the epoxy has completely cured, it is safe to step on. If using 100% solids epoxy, your floor will be cured and walkable in about 12 – 18 hours. You can return to full heavy traffic after about 36 – 72 hours. Most epoxies reach full chemical cure within 7 days of application.
