Duracrete Trowel is a combination of Epotel TL, a 100% solids epoxy liquid resin and Duracrete Trowel Aggregate, a custom silica sand based aggregate blend to form an extremely durable, single colour, trowel applied epoxy mortar mixture. It is designed as an industrial floor overlay and can be used as a high strength mortar to restore damage concrete or protect new concrete from high impact, abrasion, wear and mild chemicals in institutional, commercial and industrial environments.
- Extremely durable, highly abrasion resistant
- Seamless
- 100% solids, VOC free resins
- Proprietary, tightly packed, easy to apply sand mixture
- Can be hand or power troweled
- Moisture insensitive during application and cure
- Will not support growth of fungus or bacteria
- Easy to clean and to maintain
- CFIA approved, USDA accepted
Duracrete Trowel is used to protect new concrete which will be exposed to mechanical and chemical abuse, or to resurface, level, pitch or slope existing floor slabs in industrial applications and as a high-strength concrete repair mortar. Additional features such as chemical resistance and UV resistance can be attained by applying customizable top coats.
