Use and Care Manual

Please note that if you notice any uneven or problem areas with your application, do not apply
the topcoat until you have rectified those issues. Normally topcoat will not ‘fix’ issues with
the epoxy application.
8. CLEAN UP
ArmorTallic epoxy can be cleaned off hands and other surfaces with xylene (xylol) or similar solvent
cleaners before the material begins to harden. Warm soap and water may also be used if the epoxy is
still wet. Sticky resin on hands can be removed with mineral spirits or xylene. Fully cured ArmorPoxy
can only be removed with industrial paint strippers available from us, or through mechanical methods
such as grinding or sanding. Any leftover mixed materials, paint brushes and roller covers will harden
once the material cures and should be disposed of according to your local regulations.
9. RETURN TO SERVICE
ArmorTallic epoxy coating kit should cure for at least 24 hours before opening the area to foot traffic.
Wait 5 days before driving across and parking a car on it. Extreme temperatures and humidity levels
can dramatically impact curing times. If the floor is not ‘rock hard’ after 72 hours @ 75°F., then do not
drive on it and call for assistance.
We recommend waiting overnight between coats of primer, epoxy, and topcoat
10. MAINTENANCE
ArmorPoxy products are easy to maintain through periodic mopping with a non-bleach household
detergent solution and rinsing with clear water. Clear topcoats should be re-applied based on usage,
salt/winter exposure, and wear, as part of a regular maintenance program. Armorpoxy sells topcoat
alone, please contact us for information.
