NCC’s Buy Floor Paint provide a complete range of quality floor paints for all of these different floor painting areas and applications. We use the world’s leading floor paint brands from the world’s leading manufacturers – Sikafloor, Nitofloor, Proseal, and Fastgrip etc., from Fosroc, Remmers, Ronacrete, Sika and others. These have the most cost effective raw materials purchasing power, production efficiency and consistent Quality Control.

The best performing 'all round' floor paints today are undoubtedly almost all 2-part epoxy resin floor paints. This is because of their fast curing (hardening), tough, abrasion resistant and hard wearing finishes; they can also be very chemically resistant. However there are water dispersed, solvent dispersed and solvent free types of epoxy resin floor paints. Each of these different types of epoxy resin floor paint also has their own different advantages and disadvantages. Plus all epoxy resin floor paints, even with within any one type, such as ‘water-dispersed’, are once again, also most definitely NOT the same! - The right type and then the specific floor painting product selection are critical for success.

There is a wide difference between different epoxy resin floor paint products, for instance in terms of their ease of use, their ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ film thicknesses, their finished appearance (gloss / silk or matt) and most importantly, in their service performance and durability in very different situations!

Beware of cheap (or not so cheap in the long-term!) plain label floor paint products and unknown brands sold as ‘floor paints by the litre’ – they always have low resin contents and high solvent or water contents, or additional fillers or sand content added in order to achieve this apparent 'reduced cost'. The 'lowest cost' approach with floor painting does not work and inferior floor paint products will not perform, meaning that the whole job will soon have to be done again.

This inadequacy applies to all single pack floor paint products (other than dangerous solvent containing, moisture sensitive, single pack polyurethane resin floor paints that we also do not recommend, but for the other obvious reasons), which whatever their manufacturers claim, will give very poor long term service, particularly in terms of their abrasion or chemical resistance, and where there is any level of traffic at all, the service life will be very short. This means that the work will soon need to be redone, creating a build-up of part worn layers - as typically seen in some tyre and exhaust centres or garages that need to be repainted every few months for example. Alternatively this residual ‘soft’ paint has to be mechanically removed (expensive and messy or disruptive) before repainting the floor with good quality 2-part epoxy resin based floor paint.

At Buy Floor Paint we recommend and supply only the best quality floor paints and at the best price! We do not recommend or sell any 1-part floor paints anymore – it is not worth the trouble for you or for us! It is much better and far easier and in the long run much cheaper, to spend only a little more on the floor paint product, take the 2-5 minutes required to mix the 2-parts with a simple electric drill paddle attachment (we will even show you how), then paint the floor to last!
