7 Golden Rules for Epoxy Floor Coating Maintenance! Extend Lifespan + Save Costs

Epoxy floor coatings deliver unmatched durability, seamless surfaces, and aesthetic appeal for factories, garages, and showrooms. Yet even premium coatings require scientific care! 

SPR Paint – as professional flooring specialists – reveals these ultimate maintenance protocols to preserve your floors and avoid costly repairs.

Rule 1: Daily Cleaning - Eliminate Invisible Abrasives (Critical First Step)

Soft-Tool Sweeping: Use soft-bristled brooms or vacuums to remove grit/metal shavings – these "micro-destroyers" scratch surfaces when trampled.

Spill Response:

Oil/Chemicals: Immediately wipe with SPR Paint Neutral Epoxy Cleaner (diluted). NEVER use strong acids/alkalies!

Stains (ink/paint): Spot-treat with acetone or SPR Paint Decolorizer – no flooding!

Wet Mopping: Use well-wrung mops with clean water or dilute cleaner. Avoid water pooling to prevent blistering.

SPR Paint Tip: Clean frequency depends on traffic: Electronics workshops (2x/day), Garages (1x/day).

Rule 2: Usage Restrictions - Prevent 90% of Human Damage

Footwear Control:

BAN stilettos/spiked shoes! Use soft-soled shoes or SPR Paint Anti-static Slippers (cleanrooms).

Heavy Load Handling:

Install rubber guards on equipment legs.

Use transport pallets – NO dragging!

Vehicle Management:

Limit speed to ≤5km/h (NO sharp turns/braking).

Inspect tires weekly forembedded debris.

Rule 3: Protective Upgrades - Low-Cost "Floor Insurance"

High-Traffic Zones:

Entrance anti-slip mats (traps grit)

Oil-resistant rubber pads under machinery

Polymer wear pads in rack aisles

Visual Alerts:

Post "No High Heels"/"Slow Speed"/"Slippery Floor" signs

Install spill containment trays + emergency sand in chemical areas

Rule 4: Deep Maintenance - Renew Your Floor’s "Youth"

Monthly:

Apply thin coat of SPR Paint Epoxy Floor Wax (enhances stain resistance)

Polish gloss floors with high-speed burnishers

Quarterly:

Inspect for delamination/cracks/discoloration

Patch minor damage with SPR Paint Epoxy Repair Kit
