Extremely tough and long-lasting non slip floor paint
PB Non Slip Floor Paint has been thoroughly proven since 1991, on over two million sq.m and in almost every commercial environment and many industrial floors. It is a highly effective anti slip floor paint, fast drying and easy to apply. With a very high solid content of 55%, this single pack polyurethane is manufactured using the latest resin technology and includes some of the highest quality pigments available. This is an almost unrivaled anti slip paint which is an extremely durable and hard wearing floor coating, and provides a safe and long lasting anti slip floor finish.

Suitable substrates: After appropriate preparation, PB Non Slip Floor Paint may be applied to old, new and granolithic concrete, and is compatible with most previously coated substrates, but should be tested by painting a small area beforehand.
Colour: PB Non Slip Floor Paint is available in a standard range of 12 stock colours, or to order in a large range of BS4800 colours. Only white is subjected to a minimum order quantity of 400L.
Packaging: PB Non Slip Floor Paint is supplied in 5kg unit with 2kg added Slip Resistance.
Please consult the technical data sheet for full technical product data.
Application temperature: 5°C to 30°C
Coverage per 7kg unit: 30m²
Note: This is dependent on the porosity of the substrate and the ultimate film thickness required.
Curing times: Under normal conditions of humidity and temperature (20°C) drying time is approximately 4-6 hours, re-coatable after drying overnight.
Number of parts supplied: 2 (paint and aggregate)
Professional Help and Advice:
We know only too well that the wear and tear of a single operative simply standing in the same area for long periods of time can have as much an effect on a floor as a fleet of forklifts in a large warehouse.
No matter if you have a large or small requirement, if you are not sure which product to use, please feel free to contact our technical experts who will establish exactly what your issues are, along with the maximum amount of downtime you can allow to complete any work. Only then will we advise the best preparation, the best primer (if necessary) and the best Floor Paint top-coat option, to meet YOUR specific needs.
Surface Preparation
THOROUGH SUBSTRATE PREPARATION IS ESSENTIAL.
The surface must be clean, dry and free from dirt, grease and other contamination. The base should have a relative humidity at the surface of no more than 75% when measured according to BS 8203. If it is above 14%, it is possible the paint film will become detached from the substrate due to the effect of hydrostatic pressure as the concrete dries out. Vacuum-assisted shotblasting or grinding are the recommended methods for preparing the substrate. and any surface grease or contamination chemically removed using Polycote Degrease IT. These treatments must be thoroughly rinsed off and the surface allowed to dry before painting. Pits and holes may be filled using Polycote Cretex products. Please refer to relevant Data Sheets.
Mixing
Stir very thoroughly before use to ensure full dispersion of solids throughout the mix. Mechanical mixing from the bottom of the tin in an upwards motion is advised for 2 minutes.
Failure to stir the paint sufficiently prior to use can result in colour and gloss differences between the same batches of paint when applied.
Application
Apply by brush or roller (short to medium pile roller). If the area has not previously been treated, thin the first coat with 30% White Spirit to improve penetration and adhesion working well into the surface. This should be left for approx. 24 hours, ensuring it is touch dry, before applying the second coat. Apply second coat unthinned.
On previously sealed floors apply two coats. On previously painted surfaces one coat may provide adequate coverage (we recommend testing a small area first to check compatability.
With lighter colours 2 coats may be required to deal with opacity issues.
AVOID APPLYING TOO THICKLY.
Do not cover at a rate less than 30m² (wet film thickness 110μ, dry film thickness 50μ) per 5L unit. Applying polyurethane paint too thickly can prevent curing, resulting in a skin forming on the surface while remaining soft underneath.
Non-Slip Applications
For slip resistance, sprinkle Calcined Bauxite aggregate onto the WET first coat. The normal sprinkling rate is 5-18m² per 1kg aggregate, depending on slip resistance required. This method allows selective areas of non-slip treatment to be applied as required. Spiked shoes should be worn to avoid disturbing the wet coating. Allow to dry then re-coat to encapsulate the aggregate.
Application Temperature
Do not apply to a substrate that is below +5˚C. At these temperatures drying time will increase significantly.
