6 The Problem Colour Change Over Time food plant freezer / colour change at doorway to a dark cold storage room medical center / colour change at cold joint low quality top coat 1. solid colour coatings and screeds aromatic polyurethane discolouration 2. multicoloured decorative flooring clear epoxy top coat discolouration

7 Common Solid Colour Resin Flooring Solution 1. White to light pastel colours Apply a pigmented top coat of aliphatic polyurethane pigment to the same colour to prevent yellowing of the base layer. 2. Select deep tone colours that typically do not dramatically show the effects of yellowing. Sikafloor 261 White Base mils Sikafloor Duochem 942 White Top 6 mils Common Solution: Pigmented Epoxy Base Coat + Pigmented Aliphatic Polyurethane Top Coat

25 Epoxy vs. Polyaspartic? Web Search this question? You will find thousands of comments and opinions Every product or resin technology has advantages and limitations No single product or technology is best for every application. Example: chemical & stain resistance varies widely by specific formulation; not just the type of generic resin in the product A full line, full service manufacturer will take the time to know a client s specific requirements then recommend the best solution
