Is It Food Safe? To consider a product food safe, the end product must be assessed. Since every project is made by a different artisan and not in the same exact way, and our product comes in two parts that must be mixed, every finished piece must be assessed. Once Super Clear Table Top Epoxy has cured, it becomes safe, per code, 21CFR175.300 which states "Resinous and polymeric coatings may be safely used as the food-contact surface of articles intended for use in producing, manufacturing, packing, processing, preparing, treating, packaging, transporting, or holding food" and can be used as a "functional barrier between the food and the substrate" and "intended for repeated food-contact and use.” Read more THE EPOXY FOR THE EPOXY PROFESSIONAL Check out our product line information below comparing our Table Top Epoxy and our World Class Deep Pour Epoxy Resin, and get what you need for your project!

We are honored everyday, not only be a part of the maker community, but also have the opportunity to form friendships with those makers and be fortunate enough to help them with their business. Read more OUR 1:1 RATIO FORMULA IS EASY TO MEASURE AND EVEN EASIER TO POUR! DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Step 1: The ideal working temperature is around a constant 77°F. Best results can be obtained at constant temperatures between 70°F and 85°F, in a clean, dry, dust-free environment. Avoid working in high humidity. We recommend using this product on a leveled and flat work surface. Step 2: Measure product in accordance with your intended use. Prepare 1 part Base Resin to 1 part Curing Agent by liquid volume. Pour the Curing Agent first and then the Base Resin into a clean, smooth-sided container large enough to hold all the liquid and allow room for mixing. Step 3: The material must be mixed thoroughly for at least 3 minutes. Be sure to scrape the container sides, bottom, and corners as you mix. Be careful not to whip excessive air into the mixture. If mixing a gallon, use a power mixer set to “hand speed.” For smaller quantities, use stir sticks. Do not mix more than a gallon. Pour into a new, clean container and mix for an additional minute. Step 4: Pour the mixed resin onto the surface and distribute evenly with a squeegee or gloved hand. Continue to pour remaining material to achieve the desired thickness, allowing the resin to flow evenly over the project’s sides. Resin can be poured up to 1/4” thick per pour. Step 5: Use a heat source such as a heat gun to remove any bubbles by adding a small amount of heat to the surrounding area. The bubble will rise to the surface and pop. Step 6: If you are going to make a second pour, the first pour should still be slightly sticky. Once the second pour is made, bubbles may once again need to be removed. Material will feel hard after 45-60 minutes, cure to the point of workability within 24 hours, but full cure and maximum hardness can require up to 7 days, depending upon the temperature. PRO TIP: If you wish to apply paper decals or other objects under the Superclear countertop epoxy surface, those objects need to be bonded to the surface either with SuperClear Epoxy or craft glue. Some wood may take the material well in a single coat; however, many types of wood require a seal coat to prevent air bubbles from rising out of the wood and ruining the surface. Older, more porous pieces of wood may contain both air and moisture that can contaminate the finish. In this case, the user may first paint on a very thin coat of SuperClear Table Top Epoxy, allowing that to set before pouring the new layer. Frequently Asked Questions Q: What’s the best way to mix this? A: You’ll want to make sure that you have 1 part base resin and 1 part curing agent measured precisely, by volume. Pour each into your mixing bucket, and we recommend mixing by hand for at least 3 minutes and between 3-5 minutes or until it is fully mixed. Be careful to scrape the sides while mixing, but when pouring, do not scrape the sides. This can impart unmixed material that may cling to the side and has not been incorporated. Don’t worry about any bubbles in the mixture, they will all work themselves out. Q: How long does it take to cure, and what temperatures can I pour this in? A: Our optimum environment temperature range is 72° - 84°F in a clean, temperature controlled environment. In that temperature range, it will begin to gel in 20-30 minutes, and cure rock hard within 24 hours. Temperatures under 70° will slow the curing process even more, and the closer you get to 60° the curing process will stop. Above 85°, it will begin to accelerate curing, leading to cracking, shrinking and other negative results. Q: Is your epoxy Food Grade Safe? A: The short answer is, yes. Once our epoxy has cured, it becomes safe, per code, 21CFR175.300 which states "Resinous and polymeric coatings may be safely used as the food-contact surface of articles intended for use in producing, manufacturing, packing, processing, preparing, treating, packaging, transporting, or holding food" and can be used as a "functional barrier between the food and the substrate". Q: When can I demould? A: Our optimum environment temperature range is 72° - 84°F in a clean temperature controlled environment. In that temperature range, you can demould between 18 and 24 hours, and its optimal workability will be at 24-30 hours. At 30 hours it will sand and plane as easy as wood! Q: Can I pour Superclear Table Top Epoxy over a stain? A: Absolutely, but there are some things to consider. First, you want to let the stain completely dry. give it a couple of days to penetrate and dry. Once it is dry, lightly sand the surface, then clean off any dirt and excess stain left on the surface with 99% isopropyl alcohol. Make sure the surface is extremely clean. If any undried stain is left, no matter how little, the epoxy will either not cure and/or adhere to your wood. Q: Can I use this on furniture meant for the outdoors? A: While our epoxy yellow less over a longer period of time vs all other epoxies, in direct outdoor sunlight, any epoxy will yellow much faster. It is left to the discretion of the user, but it should be fine in highly shaded areas that are kept from direct sunlight. Q: How much mica or pigment can I use? A: We suggest only using epoxy resin color pigments (like our Supercolor Liquid Pigments), mica pigment powder, alcohol inks and dyes. With that said, 12% is the limit of color that can be added before the curing process is affected. Remember, the higher percent of color you add, the less chance of a perfect cure. If you go too high, your project will not cure. Our limit for Liquid Glass is 12%, which is more than enough to create an opaque finish, but also allows for a smaller percent to achieve a translucent finish.

Step 1: Surface Preparation First clean surface with cleaner/degreaser. Remove any oil spots, grease or spills. Etch the floor with Concrete Etch. To ensure proper adhesion for previously coated floors, scuff sand entire surface. Step 2: Mixing Premix both components (Parts A and B) thoroughly to ensure any settled pigment is re-dispersed. Pour entire contents of Part B Base into a clean 5-gallon pail. Then pour entire contents of Part A Activator into pail. It is critical to add all of Part A to Part B and mix for 2-5 minutes. Do not mix the color chips in with the coating. Allow the coating to stand for 30-60 minutes before using depending on the air temperature, then mix again just prior to application. Activated coating must be used within 2-5 hours after mixing based on temperature. Step 3: Application Using a brush or edger, cut in the perimeter of the floor or areas where a roller cannot reach before beginning the roller application. Apply an even coat to 4x4 foot sections at a time to make it easier to distribute the colored chips onto a freshly coated surface. Maintain a wet edge to prevent lap marks and gloss variations. Make sure final passes are in the same direction to ensure uniform appearance. Step 4: Clean Up Wash tools and equipment with xylene. Clean up drips or spatters immediately with xylene. Properly dispose of soiled rags. Read more Important Tips Extinguish pilot lights or open flames in area prior to mixing or application of coating. Continue to leave extinguished for a minimum of 24 hours following application. Apply decorative chips immediately to wet paint surface after each 4x4 section of concrete is coated. Scatter decorative chips up and from you to properly cover surface. It is important to apply chips on wet section before moving onto new section. Use bright lighting to ensure proper coverage. If using the anti-slip additive, continue to stir the admixed material periodically to ensure additive does not settle in the pan.

This High Performance Sophisticated Single Component Moisture Cured Polyurethane can also be special ordered in colors if using exterior as a replacement to epoxy, then no top coat needed!!! Contact Manufacturer today. Exclusively Manufactured and formulated through Colored Epoxies.From the manufacturer Colored Epoxies is designed for the DIYers and Pro's delivering artistic solid colors floors, flakes, and multi color metallic epoxy floors. It all starts by choosing one of our in stock 12 colors. Step 1: Solid Color Concrete Preparation Day 1 Start by grinding your concrete with a 7' angle grinder segmented cup wheel along with a dust shroud attachment. (Dust collector) You can rent a stand up floor grinder for larger projects. Request a trapezoid metal bonds 40/60 grit if they have it. Attaching dust shroud to a vacuum will collect 98% of dust. Fill all expansion joints in with polyuria joint caulking filler. For deep cracks Pre-fill with 1/4" backer rod leaving Polyethylene foam 1/2" below concretes surface then apply Polyuria. Pro Tip: Prepare expansion joints first, once Polyuria has dried run grinder right over the polyuria for a smooth flush cut transition. Concrete will become brighter white exceptionally porus when properly ground. Concrete must be dust free before applying epoxy. Vacuum well, power wash if necessary. If concrete is new, their is no need to grind concrete, however, Power Washing is highly recommended to remove all white film from concretes surface. Step 2: Proper Mixing & First coat Application Day 2 The first application is the Moisture Vapor Barrier Coat & Primer coat, we like to refer it as the insurance coat. Using a pre-measured 10 Quart pail Mix 1.5 Gallons of epoxy at a time. Start with 128oz (1 Gallon) of part "A" Resin followed by 64oz of part "B" Hardener combined total ounces should equal 192oz 1.5 total Gallons. ProTip: Pre-Mark readings on pail use a black sharpie helps to see better. Mix epoxies using electric drill with a ribbon mixer for a total of 3-5 minutes slow to medium speed. Mixing to fast will create air bubbles. Pour mixed epoxy into wooster wide boy bucket (see picture below of ALL tools needed) Use rubber spatular to remove contents from pails & buckets. Using 6" roller have helper cut in 7-10 LF ahead follow behind using 18"x 3/8" Nap shed free woven roller. Roll behind helper in a north & south direction. Each 1.5 gallon mix will cover 337-375 SF Coverage rates will vary by porosity. Once mixed batch is finished proceed to next batch until room is complete. Step 3: Cross Roll MVB= Moisture Vapor Barrier Coat / Primer Once Primer & MVB coat has been applied, you may start to see small "fish Eyes" gathered in various areas. FAQ section below will explain fisheyes. Time to Cross Roll. While walking on spiked shoes use same saturated 18" roller to cross roll. Place roller in right hand corner of room walk roller East to West, do not apply any pressure, pick up roller move down 18" cross roll back West to East repeat process until room has been completely cross rolled. Approximately 1.5 hours after install you will see air bubbles starting to appear. Air bubbles are mainly from the outgassing of concrete. Be sure to "POP" all air bubbles with denatured alcohol or isopropyl alcohol. Use a ZEP spray bottle to mist over bubbles. Alternatively you can use a torch or spike roller. Any air bubbles that don't get "POPPED" will need to be sanded off the next day prior to applying the final finish coat on day 3. Use 120 grit sand paper. Be sure to clean up all dust. Use denatured to mist and wipe up afterwards. Step 4: Final Finish Application, Day 3 There are two best practices when applying the final finish coat. Either dip and roll repeating step #2 or using a serrated V-notched 1/8" x 1/8" rubber squeegee. The difference between the two is mill thickness. The Dip and Roll method delivers 3-6 mills 225-250 square feet coverage per gallon compared to squeegee applied at 125 mills 120-125 square feet per gallon. Although they both cover excellent, squeegee applied delivers a higher build fluid applied glossier finish. Unlike our competitors There is no need to sand in-between coats. Our epoxies are engineered to adhere to themselves. Go ahead start second application right away. If applying by squeegee it is best to mix 3 gallons at a time to allow for fast flow. Follow step 2 cross roll and air bubbles. There will be a lot less air bubbles in the second coat as the concrete has been previously sealed. Congratulations DIYers you have completed your solid color application. Read more Metallic Epoxy floors with over 80 pearlescent mica powders to choose from. The Design possibilities are endless... Step 5: Metallic Installation, adding metallics to fluid applied MVB / Primer & Back Drop Color. Metallics are a combination of metallic powdered pigments mixed into clear epoxy resins and hardeners, then placed over a back wet "Drop Color" applied wet on wet. Start by following installation steps 1 thru 4. The back drop color is the same squeegee applied method as explained in step 4. This is the same color as the primer color, only thicker when applied with 1/8" x 1/8' notched rubber squeegee. Easy Math for figuring out how much primer and back drop color to purchase use 85 SF per gallon this will be enough material for both primer & backdrop color) You will still need to determine how much Metallic and Clear epoxy to add & purchase. For Clear epoxy: Divide the size of your room by 60 sf then divide that by 2. For example room size is 700 SF divide by 60 = 11.66 gallons of clear epoxy divide that by 2 = 5.88 gallons of clear epoxy.. Since Coloredepoxies is a 2:1 professional grade mix ratio, you would need to purchase two 3 gallon kits or six gallons in total. Step 5: Cont... Metallic Installation Process. Metallic Powdered pigments mix ratio is 4oz to 1 gallon of clear epoxy. For the 6 gallon of clear 24oz would be needed or 2ea 12 oz jars of pigments. This scenario will deliver a 3 color metallic finish including the back drop color as one color. Pro Tip: If you want to add more colors, more swirl, more marbleization effect simply add more clear epoxy and pigments as shown in picture above. Prior to squeegee applying the back drop color, it is recommended to pre-mix pigments into Part "A" resin first before starting back drop color. This will keep you one step ahead. Immediately once back drop has been squeegeed applied, you will need to add Part 'B' hardener to pre-mixed pigments, mix well. Always maintain a 2:1 mix ratio. While walking on spiked shoes drizzle, splash, pour pigments over wet back drop color. Be creative. Use rubber spatular to remove extra contents from pails, proceed to next color, add Part "B" repeat process until all colors have been applied. Step 5: Cont... Installation Process. Using your MAJIC TROWEL (refer to picture below center piece) glide trowel over metallics weave into backdrop color. For best added effects use torch to wave heat over entire floor keeping flame 6"-12" from floor. This will deliver clarity, reflection & added glossier finish. Most important it helps to shift Metallics threw the backdrop color creating natural amazing artistic effects when fully cured next day. For more natural veining "Carrara Marble" effect do not use Majic Trowel. Let epoxy stand alone follow torch procedures. Pro Tip: You can use 18" roller be sure roller is Pre- Saturated into back drop color first. Roll over entire floor one direction going with grain of veining this will this will enlarge veining for special effects. Pro Tip: add metallic powder pigments to denatured alcohol or isopropyl alcohol in a ZEP spray bottle shake well, spray over floor to add another demential 3d over cast color :-) Be Sure to use you Spike Roller and/or Torch to "Pop" and air bubbles. Over 80 Metallic in stock Colors, Top 1/2 Of Picture Is The Finish, Bottom 1/2 Is The Actual Powder. Warning: Not all epoxies are compatible with one another, be sure to Purchase Colored Epoxies Clear Resin kits to mix with pigments, they are engineered to flow, bond & adhere to one another when pouring into back drop colors. Colored Epoxies has over 80 metallic pigment colors to choose from, along with a photo gallery to help you create your very own unique floor. Congratulations DIYer! You have successfully completed your very own Metallic Floor masterpiece. Colored Epoxies has a convenient automated square foot calculator on their site to help you determine how much epoxies to purchase. Read more Flake, vinyl chips, designer decorative flake, natural wood flakes self installation process. Step 1: Concrete Floor Preparation, First Broadcast Day 1 Follow all procedures in Step 1 and 2. Coverage rates are as follows: Full coverage: 13sf per pound Medium coverage 20 sf per pound. Light coverage 25sf per pound. We highly recomend full coverage always if you want to deliver a consistent uniform broadcasted color finish, along with a life long durable scratch resistant industrial floor. Example: 500sf garage divided by 13 = 38.46 pounds. NOTE: Flakes can only be ordered in 5 pound increments. In this case suggested purchase would be 40 pounds. Upon completion of step 2 immediately broadcast flakes directly into wet MVB/PRIMER coat. Best way to broadcast.. break up 40# into four pails evenly. Each Pail representing four quadrants of the garage. Broadcast one quadrant at a time leaving 20% of flake in pail. Repeat same with quadrants 2-4. Consolidate remaining chips into one pail, while walking on spiked shoes, this is your last opportunity to uniformly broadcast flakes over garage. Fill in all bear & wet spots. Use up all the flakes. Step 2: Scraping Up The Flakes day 2 Using a floor scraper, scrape flakes North & South pressing firmly on pole. Use a leaf blower to push flakes to back wall. We suggest getting eye level with flakes, if you see high perpendicular points remove with floor scraper. NOTE: Epoxy flakes will always have texture even with 100% scrape. If you are looking for a more aggressive non-skid floor scrape less leave some high points. Once flakes have been reclaimed and floor is free of loose flakes you are ready to apply final encapsulation clear top coat over flakes. If you are looking to go vertical up stem wall? Vertical install must be completed first before starting flatwork. Step1 Roll out epoxy vertically clear or colored, toss flakes baseball style at wall. Let dry over night. Step 2 Day 2 Apply 2nd coat of clear epoxy over flakes, again toss flakes at wall, this is called a double broad cast. Once dried proceed to start flat work. Pro Tip: Double broadcasting over minor cracks, expansion joints ECT the day before install. Step 3: Applying Clear top Coat. Applying the clear coat (shown in bottom right of picture) with Colored Epoxies MFE Clear Epoxy Resin kit: This is the most important step in the flake installation process, along with concrete floor prep. Mix a 3 gallons batch 2ea."A" to 1ea. "B", Pour a wet ribbon 3"-4" off baseboards 5"-6" wide. Using a flat stiff rubber squeegee press down firmly, pulling epoxy in an east to west direction. Do not leave any puddling behind. Coverage rate per gallon is 125sf. Once first 3 gallon kit has been squeegeed out, time to cross roll flakes. Follow step 3. Be sure to pre-saturate roller in clear epoxy prior to Cross rolling. Cross rolling will evenly pickup & uniformly displace any excess epoxy delivering a perfect high impact gloss finish. Be sure to check for air bubbles 1.5 hours after install. Congratulations DIYers.. You have successfully completed a full flake installation. NOTE: If you are looking for less than full coverage, you will be required to roll out two epoxy colored coats. Step 4: Applying Medium or Light Coverage Only. Day 1 apply colored primer/mvb coat. Let dry over night. Day 2 apply second rolled out coat of same color. Broadcast flakes into this wet back drop coat. This second coat will be more visible to onlookers when using less than full flake coverage. Colored epoxies has an extensive online color selection over three thousand color choices. We can custom design any colors to meet your specifications. CUSTOM FLAKE LINES Wood chips Crystal Flakes Glitter Glitter Accents Florescent Flake, Omni non skid, and so much more! Read more FAQ Q .

Sand any ridges if necessary the next day, Use spike roller to pop air bubbles. Q. What causes air bubbles? A. New concrete or freshly Grinded, Concrete has a tendency to out gas a lot, Mixing to fast, direct hot sun, applying epoxy over hot concrete, leaving the metal cans of epoxy sitting in the sun prior to use raises the liquid temperature, inturn will make epoxy cure to fast causing bubbles. Always best to apply early am or in the shade, not in direct sunlight. Q. What happens if i still have fisheyes after applying my first coat and though grinding my concrete to white perfectly? A. Silicones, grease & oils get absorbed by the concrete, this is why its best to epoxy when new, this can not be avoided. Pro Tip: prior to starting 2nd coat, pre-mix up a small amount of epoxy and spot coat over fish eyes prior to applying final. Allow this coat to dry before applying final. Q. Where can i review SDS, TDS, More Pro Tips, see trouble shoot guides etc? A. Directly at Colored Epoxies guides section. Q.
