Description
Description
Upgrade your floors with our Winter Grade Low Temperature Curing Two Pack Epoxy, specially formulated for concrete and metal surfaces exposed to high traffic—even in cold environments. Unlike traditional epoxy floor paints that require temperatures of 10°C or higher, this advanced winter-grade formula cures at temperatures as low as 0°C, making it ideal for unheated spaces and colder seasons.
This premium, high-gloss coating delivers exceptional durability, standing up to heavy foot and machinery traffic to keep your floors looking their best. It offers outstanding resistance to chemicals, moisture, abrasion, and everyday wear, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding conditions.
Designed to seal and protect porous surfaces, it reduces dusting and makes cleaning significantly easier. Suitable for industrial, commercial, and residential settings, it’s the perfect choice for warehouses, workshops, showrooms, garages, and basements—especially those difficult-to-heat environments.
Choose our Winter Grade Low Temperature Curing Two Pack Epoxy for a high-performance, hard-wearing, and visually impressive solution that delivers reliable curing and protection even when temperatures drop to 0°C.
Important Notice:
While epoxy coatings are renowned for their superior chemical resistance and protection against the elements, it’s important to note that colours may chalk and fade when used in external applications.
It is also essential to remember that two pack epoxy paints cannot be applied over existing single pack paints, as they will react with them.

About This Item
NEW LOW-TEMPERATURE CURING TECHNOLOGY:
This advanced two-pack epoxy floor coating is designed to prime, seal, and protect concrete floors even in low-temperature environments, performing reliably with just two coats. For best results, thin the first coat by 20% with epoxy thinners to ensure proper penetration into the concrete.
DURABLE EPOXY FORMULATION:
Unlike single-pack floor paints, this coating offers exceptional long-term durability, resisting wear, peeling, and abrasion.
SUITABLE SUBSTRATES: Concrete and primed metal.
FINISH: Gloss.
APPLICATION: Apply using a brush or roller. A medium-pile, solvent-resistant roller is recommended.
MIXING RATIO: 4:1 – four parts paint to one part hardener.
POT LIFE: Approximately 4–6 hours once mixed (temperature dependent).
COVERAGE: Around 8 m² per litre. Actual coverage may vary depending on application method, substrate porosity, and surface profile.
THINNERS: T0200 Epoxy Thinner.
DRYING TIMES AT 0°C:
Touch Dry: 24 hours
Through Dry: 3 days
Full Cure: 7 days
Overcoat Window: 36–48 hours

Application
Application
Painting a Bare Concrete Floor:
Never pre-seal the floor prior to painting, particularly with latex or PVC sealers, as paint will not adhere properly.
Ensure good ventilation to allow vapour to escape; this is also essential for maintaining drying times. Without air movement, the coating cannot dry effectively.
New concrete floors should be left to dry for at least 3 months before painting. Any remaining moisture in the concrete can lead to paint delamination.
Step 1 - Clean and Abrade: Ensure the substrate is completely dry and free of any dirt, oil, or grease.
Power floated and smooth concrete floors must be mechanically abraded to ensure proper adhesion.
Be sure to stir the paint well before use.
Step 2 - First Coat / Prime: Thin the first coat by 20% with T0200 Epoxy Thinners to ensure the paint impregnates the concrete, which will act as the primer / sealer. Begin by cutting in around the edges with a 2- or 3-inch brush, and work backwards towards the exit.
Step 3 - Topcoat: Apply the second coat of paint within 36-48 hours of the first coat for optimal adhesion and performance. If you go over 48 hours then a light abrasion will be needed.
Two coats of topcoat are recommended for optimal coverage.
Painting a Bare Metal Floor:
Ensure good ventilation to allow vapour to escape; this is also essential for maintaining drying times. Without air movement, the coating cannot dry effectively.
Be sure to stir the paint well before use.
Step 1 - Clean: Ensure the substrate is completely dry and free of any dirt, oil, or grease.
Step 2 - Prime: As this product does not have anti corrosive properties you will need to use one coat of our Two Pack Epoxy Primer. Begin by cutting in around the edges with a 2- or 3-inch brush, and work backwards towards the exit.
Step 3 - Topcoat: Apply the first coat of top coat and overcoat with the second coat 36-48 hours after the first coat for optimal adhesion and performance.
Two coats of topcoat are recommended for optimal coverage.
Painting Over Existing Paint:
Ensure good ventilation to allow vapour to escape; this is also essential for maintaining drying times. Without air movement, the coating cannot dry effectively.
Be sure to stir the paint well before use.
Step 1 - Preparation: Check the suitability of the product for the existing paint. We recommend trying a sample area first, as two-pack epoxies cannot be applied over single-pack paints.
Step 2 - Clean and Abrade:
Ensure the existing paint is in good condition before painting.
Lightly abrade the surface to provide a key for good intercoat adhesion.
Remove any flaking paint prior to painting.
Ensure the substrate is dry and clean of dirt, oil or grease.
Step 3 - Prime (metal only):
For any rusted areas, sand back to bare metal and spot prime with the appropriate two pack epoxy primer.
Step 4 - Topcoat: Apply the first coat of top coat and overcoat with the second coat 36-48 hours after the first for optimal adhesion and performance. Begin by cutting in around the edges with a 2- or 3-inch brush, and work backwards towards the exit.
Two coats of topcoat are recommended for optimal coverage.
Primers
Primers
When painting bare metal a primer will be needed as this top paint doesn't have any anti-corrosive properties. Please see a list of compatible primers.
Mixing
Mixing
Use a mixer on a slow-running drill or a palette knife on smaller cans to mix the paint and catalyst together. An egg whisk, screwdriver, or small stick that doesn’t reach the bottom of the can is insufficient for proper mixing.
Mix the catalyst into the paint for 3-5 minutes, allow to stand for a minute, and then repeat.
Combine the catalyst into the can before pouring it into a paint tray.
If you are thinning the paint, this is added once the paint has been catalysed.
Ensure all components are thoroughly mixed to avoid any colour inconsistencies or drying issues.
