ONYX thin mil floor coatings improve any facility. Our coatings can be applied between 6 to 40 mils, the durability and longevity will vary accordingly.
Advantages
- Non-porous flooring prevents water/chemicals from contaminating the concrete.
- Seamless flooring makes cleaning easier for maintenance crews.
- Range of colors transforms ugly concrete into beautiful floors.
- Add aggregate for skid-resistant surfaces.
Primers
Thin mil coatings (and some Build Systems) require a primer. ONYX carries the standard EPOXY PRIME BASE (8 hr cure), EPOXY PRIME BASE FAST (4 hr cure), and EPOXY PRIME BASE FAST PLUS (2 hr cure), as well as the WATERBASED EPOXY FAST (2 hr cure) and the VAPOR REDUCER (6 hr cure). (NOTE: cure times are based on 70-75 degree temperatures.)
Epoxy HV (High Viscosity) System
Epoxy HV is an excellent option when dealing with damaged concrete or when a thicker, more durable floor is desired. The Epoxy HV (High Viscosity) is a three-part system that helps level out the resin, thereby creating a flatter surface that simply looks better. Epoxy HV provides value, in that it’s an effective way increase mil thickness while minimizing the cost. (Add the 2K CRU WB to enhance the long term gloss or matte finish.)
Flex System
The FLEX COAT has 85% elongation, creating a terrific balance for an epoxy that can stretch, yet still maintain a hard surface. It is ideal for cracked/fractured concrete, and can also be installed underneath another system serving as a medium. Furthermore, it can be reinforced with fiberglass as a membrane to help resist water or chemicals from penetrating traditional epoxy.
Epoxy Thin Mil System
The ONYX Epoxy Thin Mil System is used in nearly every type of facility. It can be installed anywhere between 8 to 40 mils. Thinner coatings should be used for foot traffic only. Heavy production conditions, such as forklift traffic or chemical attack, dictate systems in the Industrial Line. Thin mil systems require a primer (see p.4) pulled tight to seal the concrete pores prior to the top coat, thereby resisting outgassing. EPOXY TOP COAT and EPOXY TOP COAT FAST are used most frequently. Use the 2K CRU WB (Gloss or Matte as an optional finish) to enhance aesthetics by providing additional resistance to UV discoloration, staining, and preserving the long term appearance.

Color selection is only to be used for color approximation. Onsite mockups provide the most accurate results. Colors may come in gloss or matte finish contingent upon the urethane sealer final coat.
