 Products

  • Decorative Flake Systems
    Vinyl Flake systems are popular in retail spaces and areas where high customer traffic is expected. These floors provide a textured, decorative finish that is achieved using a blend of colored vinyl flakes....

  • The vinyl flakes (or paint chips, as some people refer to them) come in a variety of sizes as well, which enable the customer to create a very aesthetically pleasing blend of colors that can match almost any color scheme. Perfect for service drives, break rooms, residential garages, shops, man-caves etc.  These floors are often specified as an alternative to vinyl tile (VCT) or ceramic tile. Vinyl Flake systems are multi-coat broadcast systems, consisting of a penetrating primer, one or more broadcast coats of 100% solids epoxy and vinyl flakes, and one or more top coats of high solids clear polyaspartic.

  • Decorative Quartz System
    Petra’s Decorative Quartz system is multi-coat broadcast system that is applied over mechanically scarified (shot-blasted) surfaces using a mixture colored quartz granules to create a vast array of color options....

  • Double broadcast systems are generally 115-125 mils (1/8 inch) thick. These floors have a textured finish that provide a natural non-skid surface. Decorative Quartz systems have one or more base coats of clear 100% solids epoxy that receive full broadcasts of colored quartz aggregate (broadcast to refusal), while the epoxy is still wet. Once the broadcast coats have cured and all remaining loose aggregate has been swept off and vacuumed, a top coat of clear 100% solids epoxy is applied to finish the system and seal the floor. 

    For added chemical resistance, UV stabilization, and gloss retention, an additional top coat of urethane may be applied. This system is often installed with an integral cove base in areas where seamless transitions are required from floor to wall surfaces. Quartz floors are very durable, and offer much higher scratch and impact resistance than standard rolled-on epoxy systems.

  • Natural Quartz Broadcast Systems
    Petra’s Natural Quartz system is multi-coat broadcast system that is applied over mechanically scarified (shot-blasted) surfaces. A single broadcast system is typically 50-60 mils thick, and double broadcast systems are generally 80-100 mils thick....

  • These floors have a textured finish that provide a natural non-skid surface. Natural Quartz systems have one or more base coats of pigmented 100% solids epoxy that receive full broadcasts of natural quartz aggregate, while the epoxy is still wet. Once the broadcast coats have cured and remaining loose aggregate has been swept off and vacuumed, a top coat of pigmented 100% solids epoxy is applied to finish the system and seal the floor. 

         For added chemical resistance, UV stabilization and gloss retention, an additional top coat of aliphatic urethane is applied. This system is often installed with and integral cove base in areas where seamless transitions are required from floor to wall surfaces. Quartz floors are very durable, and offer much higher scratch and impact resistance than standard rolled on epoxy systems.

  • Polished & Dyed Concrete
    Petra Coatings not only offers floor coatings of all types, but we are set up to polish concrete and polish and dye concrete....

  • Polished concrete is much more durable than acid stained concrete, which is what many people are referring to when they say "stained concrete".   Typical "stained concrete," that are topped with acrylic sealers will wear out quickly, while a polished and dyed floors will maintain color and gloss for the life of the floor if maintained properly.  Using a penetrating dye, polished concrete can have vibrant colors and can be polished to achieve a very high level of gloss.  Think of polished concrete as the same process kids used to use in the old rock tumblers.  You are literally polishing the rock, just like a granite slab gets polished.  

         Every slab is different, and different levels of exposed aggregate will vary depending on the slab.  Polished concrete floors will be sealed with a penetrating sealer, which does not form a film, but rather penetrates the surface and crystallizes creating a seal that will hold back stains.  These floors are not going to give you the chemical resistance that a floor coating can achieve, but for retail spaces, and other areas where chemical resistance and staining is not a major concern, polishing your floor may just be the option for you.

  • Thin Film Systems
    20 Mil and 30 MIL EPU Systems...

  • The 20 Mil EPU System is an affordable thin-film system that consists of one primer coat of 100% solids epoxy, followed by a build coat of epoxy and a final top coat of aliphatic urethane.  The urethane provides added gloss retention, UV stabilization, and chemical resistance.  This thin-film system is applied over mechanically scarified surfaces (using shot-blast machines, or planetary grinders ) and in some cases can be applied over properly cleaned and sanded existing coatings. These are pigmented systems, and can have a smooth gloss finish, or non-skid textures can be achieved using aluminum oxide aggregates of various sizes.  

    Step it up a notch with our 30 Mil EPU System consisting of two thicker coats of 100% solids epoxy and topped with aliphatic urethane.  This system will have a smoother finish, as the epoxy self-levels and leaves a very flat finish, and the urethane provides a durable wear surface and UV stability.
