The Materials We Use
E&S Epoxy Solutions installs Versatile Coatings, a 100%-solids/polyaspartic professional-grade epoxy system, on every project. It's a different category of product from the water-based epoxy and acrylic kits sold at Home Depot and other big-box stores.
Versatile Coatings vs. Home Depot Brands (Rust-Oleum, Behr, KILZ)
Material Base
100% Solids / Polyaspartic High-Solids
Water-based Epoxy or Acrylic Paints
Thickness (Cured)
High-build, thick and impact-resistant protective layer
Thin-film, prone to scratching and chip wear
Hot-Tire Resistance
Excellent, will not peel under hot tires
Poor to Moderate, commonly delaminates
Moisture Tolerance
High, handles up to 8 lbs of moisture vapor
Low, trapped moisture causes bubbling/peeling
Pot Life / Working Time
Short, requires swift and coordinated application
Long, forgiving and easy for single DIYers
Surface Prep Needed
Strict diamond grinding required
Simple acid-etching or heavy scrubbing
Why Professional Installation Matters
Versatile Coatings’ short pot life demands swift, coordinated application. The surface underneath also needs strict diamond grinding rather than a quick acid-etch. That combination is why this material is installed by trained crews rather than sold as a weekend DIY kit, and it’s the same reason E&S Epoxy Solutions can back every install with a lifetime warranty.
