CRADLE KIT OPTION
CRADLE KITS CAN ONLY BE SHIPPED VIA freight LTL. If we ship freight and it's to your home there may be additional charges from the freight company. Since we are the shipper the charges come back to us, and we will then have to pass them on to you. There are additional fees if you have the driver bring the pallet into your space. If you have them use the lift gate. Please keep in mind any additional charges from the freight company will be billed to you.
BATCH KIT OPTION
Batch kits are great. Essentially they are the same as a cradle kit, but we can ship them UPS! It's a 5 gallon bucket with 2 gallons Part A in the 5 gallon bucket, and Part B is in a 1 gallon pale. This will come to you in a box, and Part B will sit on the outside of the bucket.
CLEAR100 is a two component 100% solids epoxy seal coat which incorporates UV resistance additives that can be used either as a coating or filled with paint chips, marble chips, metallic powder, and colored sand mixtures to provide an infinite array of color schemes or patterns.
Recommended for warehouses, kitchens, restrooms, and other areas where either a high build clear product is needed or where a decorative filled floor is desired and better UV resistance is needed.

Preparation, Mixing and Installation Instructions for Primer / Base - HD PRO High Solids System. This kit includes HD PRO, our superior and most versatile base system.
1) PRODUCT STORAGE: Store product in an area so as to bring the material to normal room temperature before using. Continuous storage should be between 60 and 90 degrees F. Low temperatures or great temperature fluctuations may cause crystallization.
2) SURFACE PREPARATION: The most suitable surface preparation would be a fine brush blast (shot blast) to remove all laitance and provide a suitable profile. All dirt, foreign contaminants, oil, and laitance must be removed to assure a trouble free bond to the substrate. A test should be made to determine that the substrate (Concrete, Laminate, Tile, Formica, MDF, etc) is dry; this can be done by placing a 4’X4’ plastic sheet on the substrate and taping down the edges. If after 24 hours, the substrate is still dry below the plastic sheet, then the substrate is dry enough to start coating. The plastic sheet testing is also a good method to determine if any hydrostatic pressure problems exist that may later cause dis-bonding.
3) PRODUCT MIXING: This product has a mix ratio of 12# part A to 3.85# part B for standard colors. Standard packages are in pre-measured kits and should be mixed as supplied in the kit. We highly recommend that the kits not be broken down unless suitable weighing equipment is available. After the two parts are combined, mix well with slow speed mixing equipment such as a jiffy mixer until the material is thoroughly mixed and streak free. After mixing, transfer the mixed material to another pail (the transfer pail) and again remix. The material in the transfer pail is now ready to be applied on the primed substrate. Improper mixing may result in product failure.
4) PRIMING: This product is only intended as a high solids primer suitable for most substrates. However, if the surface is very porous, then a lower solids primer might be more suitable to reduce the possibility of air release problems occurring. Contact your Spartan Epoxies sales rep for more information.
5) PRODUCT APPLICATION: The mixed material can be applied by brush or roller. However, the material can also be applied by a suitable serrated squeegee and then back rolled as long as the appropriate thickness recommendations are maintained. Maintain temperatures and relative humidity within the recommended ranges during the application and curing process. If concrete conditions or over aggressive mixing causes air entrapment, then an air release roller tool should be used prior to the coating tacking o to remove the air entrapped in the coating. Thinner applications will not level as well as higher build applications.
6) RECOAT OR TOPCOATING: Although a topcoat is recommended, it is optional. Many topcoats are suitable for placement over this coating including both urethanes and epoxies. When top coating this product, you must first be sure that the coating has tacked o before top coating can commence. Before top coating, check the coating to verify no epoxy blushes were developed (a whitish, greasy film or de-glossing). If a blush is present, it must be removed prior to top coating. A standard type detergent cleaner can be used to remove any blush. Many epoxy coatings and urethanes are compatible for use as a topcoat for this product as well as multiple coats of this product as an intermediate build coat.
7) CLEANUP: Xylol is the most effective, but if you wish not to use xylol, you can use acetone or alcohol. Xylol is the best and most recommended. Remember to protect your skin and eyes.
8) CLEANING: Caution! Some cleaners may affect the color of the epoxy installed. Test each cleaner in a small area, utilizing your cleaning technique. If no ill effects are noted, you can continue to clean with the product and process tested.
9) RESTRICTIONS: Restrict the use of the surface to light traffic and non-harsh chemicals until the coating is fully cured (see technical data under full cure). It is best to let the floor remain dry for the full cure cycle. Dependent on actual complete system application, the surface may be slippery, especially when wet or contaminated; keep the surface clean and dry.
Preparation, Mixing and Installation Instructions for SPE-META-UV / 100% CLEAR EPOXY BINDER System.
1.) PRODUCT STORAGE: Store product in an area so as to bring the material to normal room temperature before using. Continuous storage should be between 60 and 90 degrees F. Low temperatures or temperature fluctuations may cause crystallization.
2.) SURFACE PREPARATION: The most suitable surface preparation would be a fine brush blast (shot blast) to remove all laitance and provide a suitable profile. All dirt, foreign contaminants, oil, and laitance must be removed to assure a trouble free bond to the substrate. A test should be made to determine that the substrate (Concrete, Laminate, Tile, Formica, MDF, etc) is dry; this can be done by placing a 4’X4’ plastic sheet on the substrate and taping down the edges. If after 24 hours, the substrate is still dry below the plastic sheet, then the substrate is dry enough to start coating. The plastic sheet testing is also a good method to determine if any hydrostatic pressure problems exist that may later cause disbanding.
3.) PRODUCT MIXING: When mixing metallics take part B, open and pour into bucket, next open Metallic container and slowly pour into part B while mixing thoroughly. Make sure metallics achieve wetness. Once all metallics are mixed thoroughly add Part A and again mix thoroughly. To prevent air from being introduced into the epoxy, DO NOT lift mixing blade out of epoxy while mixing. This product has a mix ratio of 9.0# part A to 4.15# part B. Standard packages are in pre-measured kits and should be mixed as supplied in the kit. We highly recommend that the kits not be broken down unless suitable weighing equipment is available. After the two parts are combined, mix well with slow speed mixing equipment such as a jiffy mixer until the material is thoroughly mixed and streak free. After mixing, transfer the mixed material to another pail (the transfer pail) and again remix. The material in the transfer pail is now ready to be applied on the primed substrate. Improper mixing may result in product failure.
4.) PRIMING: A suitable primer should be used before applying this product. See the front side of this technical data for primer information. If a primer is not used, more porous substrates may cause outgassing and possible surface defects.
5.) PRODUCT APPLICATION: The mixed material can be applied by brush or roller. However, the material can also be applied by a suitable serrated squeegee and then back rolled as long as the appropriate thickness recommendations are maintained. Maintain temperatures and relative humidity within the recommended ranges during the application and curing process. If concrete conditions or over aggressive mixing causes air entrapment, then an air release roller tool should be used prior to the coating tacking off to remove the air entrapped in the coating. This product can be used with various colored sand in a broadcast system or other suitable aggregate can be used in conjunction with this product to achieve a variety of color and application patterns. When using as a broadcast binder, always evaluate performance parameters with a test area which is dependent on aggregate size and thickness, prior to application. Contact your representative for details as necessary.
6. RECOAT OR TOPCOATING: If you opt to recoat or topcoat this product, you must first be sure that the coating has tacked o before recoating. Always remember that colder temperatures will require more cure time for the product before recoating or top coating can commence. Before recoating or top coating, check the coating to ensure no epoxy blushes were developed (a whitish, greasy film or de-glossing). If a blush is present, it must be removed prior to top coating or recoating. Many epoxy coatings and urethanes are compatible for use as a topcoat for this product as well as multiple coats of this product.
7) CLEANUP: Use xylol.
8) CLEANING: Caution! Some cleaners may affect the color. Test each cleaner in a small area. If no ill effects are noted, you can continue to clean with the product and process tested.
9) RESTRICTIONS: Restrict the use of the epoxy to light traffic/use, and non-harsh chemicals until the coating is fully cured (see technical data under full cure). It is best to let the floor remain dry for the full cure cycle. Dependent on actual complete system application, the surface may be slippery, especially when wet or contaminated; keep the surface clean and dry.

From the moment I called Spartan Epoxies and spoke with Mike, I knew we were in good hands. Mike's expertise and genuine willingness to assist were evident from the start. He listened to what I envisioned and knew right away what I needed.
Mike knew I haven't used epoxy before—so he offered his phone number and email address and encouraged me to reach out with any questions I had along the way. His background as a skilled installer brought decades of insight and expertise, making me feel confident I had resource to reach out to if we had questions along the way.
The product itself exceeded our expectations. The kit assembled by Mike was comprehensive and contained all the necessary tools and materials for a seamless installation process. Despite moments of uncertainty during the application, we trusted the process, and the results speak for themselves. Our flooring turned out exactly as we envisioned – a stunning, custom creation that perfectly complements the 'moody vibe' of our bathroom.
Not only is our new flooring aesthetically pleasing, but it's also remarkably durable and easy to maintain. There is no grout to clean, no seams to deal with, is waterproof, etc. Its unique design has become a focal point in our home, garnering compliments from all who visit. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.
As a Realtor in Oregon that tours thousands of homes a year, I can confidently say that epoxy floors will be making a tremendous presence in 2024 as more people begin to realize they can create custom flooring masterpieces without the use of saws, tile saws, specialty skills, etc--all while increasing the value of their home and adding 'flavor' to their space.
I wholeheartedly recommend Spartan Epoxies to anyone seeking professional-grade products, unparalleled customer service, and exceptional results. Our experience with Mike and the Spartan Epoxies team was nothing short of outstanding, and we are grateful for their professionalism, integrity, and commitment to customer satisfaction.
Thank you, Spartan Epoxies, for helping us turn our flooring dreams into a reality.
