Why Water-Based Epoxies Fail in Restaurant Environments
The Right Coating for the Right Application
At Epoxy Central, we believe in using the right tool for the right job. While we offer excellent garage floor epoxy systems, we would never recommend them for restaurant applications. Here's why:
Water-Based Epoxy Limitations:
- Insufficient hardness for constant chair scraping and foot traffic
- Poor impact resistance leads to chips and cracks from dropped items
- Limited chemical resistance to food acids and commercial cleaners
- Shorter lifespan requires frequent recoating and replacement
- Poor adhesion to existing restaurant flooring materials
Why Professional Systems Matter:
- Engineered for commercial use with appropriate thickness and hardness
- Proven track record in thousands of restaurant installations
- Long-term cost savings through extended service life
- Professional appearance maintains your establishment's image
- Warranty protection ensures your investment is protected
