PaintPlus | Epoxy-Like Toughness | Hard Wearing | Water Based | PerfectPrimer Topcoat | Easy to Use

1 Coat Application: 275-325 Square Feet Per Gallon

2 Coat Application: 175-200 Square Feet Per Gallon (2 coats recommended if project will have heavier traffic)

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

SURFACE PREPARATION: All surfaces must be dry, clean, free of chalk and loose paint, grease, oil, wax, silicone, efflorescence etc. Asphalt and previously painted concrete must be scrubbed with PerfectCleaner according to label directions, or a strong detergent such as TSP. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to stand until completely dry. New and/or unpainted concrete must be primed when required due to asbestos contamination with PerfectPrimer first.  Surface should be roughed up or “etched” with a 25% solution of muriatic acid to water. Apply solution to concrete and allow to stand until bubbling ceases, rinse THOROUGHLY with clean water and allow to stand until completely dry. Wear proper eye, skin, and respiratory protection.

PRODUCT MIXING: For best mixing results recommend a Jiffy Mixer style drill mixer.

APPLICATION: Stir well to a smooth consistency immediately before use. Apply with a high 3/8″ or 1.2″ quality medium nap synthetic roller cover and a Nylon or Polyester brush.

UNPAINTED CONCRETE: First coat MUST be thinned with 1 pint of clean water per gallon of paint and brushed or rolled well into surface. Dries to touch in one hour, second coat may be applied after 12 hours dry time.

ASPHALT AND PREVIOUSLY PAINTED CONCRETE: Apply 2 coats allowing 12 hours between coats. For added slip prevention, up to one pound of clean and dry fine silica sand may be added to each gallon of paint. For best service, add sand in first coat material only. Stir occasionally during application to prevent settling of sand. Will take foot traffic in two hours, however, seven days curing time MUST elapse prior to automobile traffic exposure.

Do not apply PaintPlus over the following surfaces or coatings: Hydraulic cement, silicone or silicate sealers, epoxies, polyurethanes, and some glossy paints. To determine whether proper adhesion is possible, apply a small test patch of Sure-Grip to an inconspicuous area of the substrate in question and allow to dry 48 hours. Check adhesion by applying and then removing a piece of duct tape from the test patch. If any paint remains on the duct tape, the surface is not suitable for coating.

CLEANUP: Clean all hands and tools with soap and warm water immediately after use. Clean spatters immediately with warm soapy water. If spatters are allowed to dry, clean with xylene, lacquer thinner, or other strong solvent (read cautions and instructions on solvent label). CAUTION, some solvents may dissolve asphalt

What is PaintPlus and how is it different from epoxy floor coatings?

PaintPlus is a water-based hybrid coating that delivers epoxy-like durability while being much easier to apply. Unlike traditional epoxy, it has low odor, low VOCs, and cleans up with water, making it ideal for DIY homeowners and professionals alike.

Do I need to use PerfectPrimer before applying PaintPlus?

Yes—PaintPlus is specifically designed to be used as a topcoat over PerfectPrimer for best results.

PerfectPrimer:

• Seals difficult surfaces like asbestos tile, mastic, glue, and concrete
• Creates a strong bonding surface
• Prevents failures caused by contaminants or poor adhesion

Using PaintPlus without proper priming can reduce durability and performance.

Can PaintPlus be applied directly to concrete?

Yes, PaintPlus can be applied directly to properly prepared concrete, but:

• New or contaminated concrete should be primed with PerfectPrimer first
• Surfaces must be clean, dry, and etched if needed

For long-term durability, the PerfectPrimer + PaintPlus system is strongly recommended.

What surfaces can PaintPlus be used on?

PaintPlus is highly versatile and works on:

• Concrete floors (garages, basements, warehouses)
• Metal surfaces (direct-to-metal bonding)
• Previously painted or coated floors (with prep****)
• Outdoor surfaces like decks and balconies

It’s suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial use.

Is PaintPlus strong enough for garage floors and heavy traffic?

Yes. PaintPlus is designed for:

• Light to heavy foot traffic
• Workshops and garage environments
• Warehouses and industrial spaces

For heavier use, applying two coats increases durability.

⚠️ However, it is not recommended for constant wheeled traffic (like forklifts or heavy vehicle use).

How many coats of PaintPlus should I apply?

• 1 coat: Light-duty applications
• 2 coats: Recommended for durability and heavier traffic

Coverage:

• 1 coat: ~275–325 sq ft per gallon
• 2 coats: ~175–200 sq ft per gallon

How long does PaintPlus take to dry and cure?

• Dry to touch: ~1 hour
• Recoat time: ~12 hours
• Foot traffic: ~2 hours
• Full cure (vehicle use): 7 days

Proper curing is critical for maximum durability. Note: temperature will affect curing schedule. For additional application assistance, reach out to us at 630-675-4509 or [email protected].

Is PaintPlus safe to use indoors?

Yes. PaintPlus is:

• Low odor
• Low VOC
• Non-toxic
• Water-based

This makes it safe for indoor environments like basements, garages, and living spaces.

Can PaintPlus resist chemicals, stains, and moisture?

Yes. PaintPlus offers:

• Chemical resistance
• Protection against stains and spills
• Moisture resistance when used with PerfectPrimer

The combination system helps protect floors from wear, damage, and environmental exposure.

What should NOT be applied under PaintPlus?

Do not apply PaintPlus over:

• Silicone or silicate sealers
• Existing epoxy or polyurethane coatings
• Glossy, non-porous surfaces without proper prep

Always test adhesion if unsure.

Why choose the PerfectPrimer + PaintPlus system instead of regular paint?

Regular paint often fails on problem surfaces. The system works because:

• PerfectPrimer seals & stabilizes the substrate
• PaintPlus adds a durable, flexible, protective finish

Together, they create a professional-grade coating system that:

• Prevents peeling and bubbling
• Improves adhesion
• Extends coating lifespan

Is PaintPlus a good alternative to epoxy flooring?

Yes—for many applications. PaintPlus offers:

• Easier application (no complex mixing)
• Safer indoor use (low fumes)
• Flexibility (less cracking than epoxy)

However, for extreme industrial or heavy wheeled traffic, traditional 100% solids epoxy systems may still be required.
