Urethanes? Devoe, SW, Wolv, HPU747

[gabeancounter]

Need advice on urethanes.
polyalphtics out- due to peeling from epoxy

Looking @ clear gloss with good UV / chemical resistance

Difference in devoe 379uva and 379h??? 379H better for fumes?
SW- Urethanes? Any opinions on rexthane, sheild crete etc?
Wolv - endurashield? Fumes differences?
Who has used the original chips HPU747? Opinions?

What is in the pro version of rustoleum clear?

Wolverine's EnduraShield 2254 has a very light solvent like smell that dissipates in minutes, with open doors or windows it's almost not noticeable.

It's spec'd to go down at 4 mils thick, a 1.25 gallon kit is good for about 450 ft2.

I used the sw rexthane and it does smell really bad for a day or two. I was told it is moisture curing meaning it use the humidity in the air to dry. The data sheet says the humidity should be between 30% and 99% . If its lower it takes a lot longer to cure. One day after i put it down it was rock hard, I couldn't even get my finger nail to to make a mark in it. Haven't drove on it yet, going to wait at least 7 days.

Great post! I'm also looking for this info, especially the original chips HPU747- which I'm leaning towards.

Hope more info comes!

Got the HP747 down... Finally my performance epoxy project is done. Few bumps in the road, but all in all, I'm pretty happy. I learned alot, and will do a full post with a few pics by next week- been super busy at work. I must make my own post to hopefully help some others as other GJ members did for me.

Anyway, the HP747. Went down nice and smooth, though a wide roller woulda been nice. The key to this stuff in my opinion is a proper respirator- in my case I was fortunate to have a top of the line military gas mask with an extra filter from work. Trust me, this stuff is nasty!!! I craked the mask to adjust it and couldn't believe the odor...and yes, it lingered throughout the house!

I cut off the HVAC and ran fans in garage, opened all windows and ran fans and ceiling fans for the first 24hrs, and now there's only light odor in/near garage. I opened all door in the house, and forgot one closet, and it was full
of smell!

Don't do this when wife is home! I got off work at 6am, applied, and by 6pm the wife said it wasn't too bad...but trust me, the early hours were rough!!! It looks super good, and Im hoping it to curb any yellowing.

Stayed tuned for a full write up in the next days. Anyone else use the hp747 yet?

We are waiting Nate.....and waiting, and waiting......

Gabeancounter, where the hell are you? You better get your bean counting *** back out here and tell us what you decided. Don't make me start talking about your Bulldogs and Falcons.

Damn,
I did not even see these post. Nate, I assume the mask that comes with the kit is junk??? Let us see some pics! I think you used the same exact flake and everything I used the first time..lol.

Banker,
Our falcons players are betting on the bulldog fights...lol.
Now now ... don't make me pull up that old thread "i've started my floor" but it took 6 months. Longest epoxy job in history. lol

Sorry for the lack of posts guys... I'm just starting to shake the black cloud that's been lingering over me! Works been busy, some personal stuff going on, and computer (2003 model lol) has crashed! ...now I'm a slave to my iPhone!

Anyways, I've had goodluck with my floor... Been so busy I haven't washed it even once yet!!! I'll shoot some pics and a write up when I can- sorry for the slacking!!!!

I just redid some of my floor that I screwed up on and have to say that this product looks like glass and was very impressed with how easy it goes down. Granted I have a wolverine floor so it made sense for me, but it shows no wear even with dragging my jack around. just my 2 pennies
