- Features
- SureCrete provides the applicator with three Part “B” hardener formulations to create the ideal epoxy floor coating for eany project.
- Regardless of choice of Part “B”, the Part “A” of the ColorTec 500 does not change.
- ColorTec pigments achieve the preferred substrate hide and tint uniformity in 100’s of colors.
- On some bright colors, samples should be done to insure proper hide.
- The high performance, self-leveling characteristics generate the premier balance of strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance that is both user-friendly and extremely durable.
Applications & Uses

- Applications
- Application Area
- Uses
ColorTec 500 is ideally suited for any commercial or residential setting: manufacturing facilities, warehouses, bars, clubs, retail stores, automotive showrooms, residential interiors, garage floors, gyms, locker rooms, stadiums, or anywhere that an exceedingly resilient floor is desired.
- Coverage
- Varies widely per system selected
- As color coat: approximately 100 - 150 ft² per gal.; 10.7 - 16 mils
- For thick build: 40 - 70 ft² per gal.; 23 - 40 mils
- Suitability Sample
- Due to condition specific sites, always prepare an adequate number of test areas.
- Wear protection system and esthetic suitability for products’ intended use should be included.
- On-site sample approval is especially critical on substantial, heavy traffic situation or custom coloration.
- Clean-Up
Before the product dries; spills and tools can be cleaned up with a solvent such as xylene or acetone.
- Limitations
- For use by trained professionals that have read the complete SDS.
- The product is strictly for interior use, upon a well-drained concrete slab with an appropriate vapor barrier, subject to no hydrostatic pressure.
- When masking use caution while taping to a floor that is not completely cured, especially at the edges, as delamination may occur.
- Protect from metal wheel traffic and some furniture where point of contact may be damaging.
- Chemicals used in tire manufacturing may be detrimental to all sealers from vehicular parking

Regulatory & Compliance
- Slip Resistance
- Two recognized US agencies have issued directives on minimum coefficient of friction, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and Department of Justice through the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act).
- ADA is the more stringent of the two. ADA directs that accessible walkways have a minimum coefficient of friction of 0.6. Ramps have been directed to be 0.8.
- The applicator assumes the responsibility to meet these standards. Areas that may become wet, oily, or greasy require special attention.
Safety & Health
- Caution
- Keep out of reach of children.
Inhalation:
- Avoid prolonged breathing of airborne dust, particularly present during mixing.
- Use NIOSH approved respirator for nuisance if threshold limit values are unsafe.
Skin Contact:
- Skin contact may cause irritation.
- Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap and water.
- Launder clothing before reuse.
- If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Eyes:
- Wear safety eye protection when applying.
- Contact with eyes may cause irritation.
- Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes.
- If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
