Description
POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT
Durable Color Finish. Protective Wear Surface. Versatile Performance.
POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT is a high-quality, acrylic-based coating designed to provide a durable, attractive, and protective wear surface for industrial, commercial, and residential applications. It delivers excellent resistance to chemicals, wear, UV exposure, mildew, and alkali conditions while enhancing and preserving the appearance of treated surfaces.
This water-based, low-odor formulation allows for safe, convenient application and fast drying to reduce downtime. Available in a wide range of colors, POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT can be applied in smooth, semi-gloss, or textured finishes to meet both aesthetic and functional requirements, including traction enhancement.
Forming a flexible, long-lasting coating, POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT protects substrates from water intrusion, chemical attack, and surface wear. It is ideal for restoring and protecting wood decks, bridges, concrete floors, and exterior plaster finishes, delivering a low-maintenance, cost-effective solution that combines durability with visual appeal.
Available in 24 standard colors, with custom color matching upon request.

POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT Application Guidelines
Surface Preparation
- The substrate must be firm, clean, dry, and free of loose debris, dirt, grease, oil, mildew, or any contaminants that may interfere with proper adhesion.
- Repair all cracks, spalled areas, and damaged surfaces prior to application.
Application
For previously coated or treated surfaces, perform a test application of POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT (and primer, if required) over a 4 ft × 4 ft area. After curing, inspect for proper adhesion and any signs of incompatibility, such as blistering or pinholes. Surface sanding or mechanical abrasion may be necessary to improve adhesion.
Mix thoroughly for at least 2 minutes using a low-speed power mixer prior to application. Apply directly from the container.
POLAFLOOR COLORCOAT is typically applied using a soft brush or roller; airless spray equipment may also be used. Apply two coats at a coverage rate of approximately 200–240 square feet per gallon per coat.
For enhanced traction, incorporate 2–4 pounds of dry broadcast aggregate per gallon of material. Blend using low-speed mixing and apply as the second coat. Increased aggregate levels will produce a more textured finish.
For improved wear resistance or protection against ponding water, apply a topcoat of CLEARCOAT 44 at a rate of 250–300 square feet per gallon.
Spray Application
Use a 30:1 airless pump with a 3/8″ moisture-resistant hose and a 31 tip size.
Recommended Thickness
Two coats typically yield approximately 30 mils dry film thickness (DFT).
Clean-Up
Clean tools and equipment with water while the material is still wet.
Limitations
- Do not apply to frozen or saturated surfaces.
- Do not apply unless temperatures can be maintained above 45°F (7°C) for at least 6 hours.
- This product is not intended for areas subject to standing water unless topcoated with CLEARCOAT 44.
- Test all previously sealed, treated, or painted surfaces for compatibility prior to full application.
Safety Information
Read the product label and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to use for important health and safety information.
Keep out of reach of children and pets.
