Product Information
Full details
The FabioT. RT 2K Epoxy Floor Paint is a high-performance, solvent-free coating designed for industrial floors, workshops, and warehouses subjected to heavy mechanical loads and chemical exposure. Its self-levelling, semi-gloss finish provides excellent abrasion resistance and adhesion to concrete, making it ideal for demanding environments. A key caveat is that proper surface preparation is crucial for optimal adhesion and durability. This product offers a robust solution for protecting and enhancing concrete floors in high-traffic areas.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the coverage rate of this epoxy floor paint?
Coverage varies based on the application method and substrate porosity. Refer to the product's technical data sheet for specific coverage estimates for different kit sizes.
Can this paint be used on garage floors?
Yes, it is suitable for garage floors due to its resistance to mechanical loads and chemicals like oil and fuels, provided the concrete surface is properly prepared.
How long does the paint last?
With proper application and maintenance, this high-performance epoxy coating can last for many years, offering excellent protection against wear and chemical damage.
Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
While it offers good chemical resistance, it is primarily designed for indoor industrial environments. Extended UV exposure or extreme weather conditions may affect its long-term performance and appearance.
Can I apply a second coat?
Yes, a second coat can be applied for enhanced durability and appearance. Ensure the first coat has reached the appropriate stage for recoating as per the manufacturer's guidelines.
What is the difference between the sample size and larger kits?
The sample size is intended for testing the color, finish, or application on a small area. Larger kits are designed for covering substantial floor areas and offer better value for larger projects.
Is this product suitable for areas with food contact?
This specific product is designed for industrial environments and may not meet all regulatory requirements for food contact surfaces. Consult the product's technical data sheet or manufacturer for specific certifications regarding food safety.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or streaky finish
Ensure proper mixing of components. Apply thin, even coats. Check for inconsistencies in application technique or roller quality.
Coating peels or delaminates
This is likely due to inadequate surface preparation. Ensure the concrete was clean, dry, and properly profiled before application. Check if primer was used and applied correctly.
Bubbles or pinholes in the finish
May be caused by trapped moisture in the substrate or off-gassing from the concrete. Ensure the concrete is fully dry and properly sealed if necessary. Avoid applying in direct sunlight or extreme temperature changes.
Slow curing or sticky surface
Ensure components were mixed in the correct ratio and thoroughly. Low temperatures can slow down the curing process; apply within the recommended temperature range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the concrete substrate is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose particles. Abrasive blasting or acid etching may be necessary for optimal adhesion. Ensure the concrete moisture content is below 4%.
- Priming (Recommended): For best results, especially on porous or difficult substrates, apply a compatible primer like Mipa Primer.
- Mixing: Mix the two components of the epoxy thoroughly according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure a uniform consistency before application.
Compatibility:
- Compatible with Mipa primers.
- Can be used with quartz additives to create anti-slip surfaces.
- Suitable for concrete and industrial floor substrates.
Care:
- Clean spills immediately using appropriate industrial cleaners.
- Regular cleaning with a damp mop and mild detergent is recommended.
- Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the coating.
