Choosing the right floor paint requires comprehensive consideration of factors such as the purpose of the floor, environmental conditions, construction requirements and budget. Here are some specific selection suggestions.
1、Choose the type of floor paint according to the usage scenario
Industrial floor: requires wear-resistant and chemical-resistant floor paint.
Recommended: Epoxy resin floor paint, suitable for industrial environments such as factories and warehouses, with excellent wear and chemical resistance and easy to clean.
Parking lot: requires strong wear resistance and oil resistance, and has a certain degree of elasticity.
Recommended: Polyurethane floor paint, suitable for parking lot floors, wear resistance, oil resistance, good elasticity, and vibration absorption.
Decorative floor: requires rich colors and high gloss, used in shopping malls, exhibition halls, etc.
Recommended: Polysiloxane floor paint, with high gloss and weather resistance, suitable for decorative floors in commercial places.
Outdoor floor: requires strong weather resistance and UV resistance, suitable for open-air environment.
Recommended: Polyurethane or acrylic floor paint, good weather resistance, not easy to yellow or crack, suitable for outdoor sports fields, runways, etc.
Chemical protection floor: requires high corrosion resistance and is suitable for environments exposed to acid and alkali chemicals.
Recommended: Chemical-resistant epoxy floor paint or phenolic epoxy floor paint, which have good chemical resistance and are suitable for laboratories, chemical plants, etc.
2、Consider the specific needs of the floor
Wear resistance: For heavy-loaded floors such as logistics centers and warehouses, you should choose a floor paint with high wear resistance. High-strength epoxy or polyurethane floor paint is recommended.
Impact resistance: For areas with heavy objects or vibrations, you should choose a floor paint with a certain elasticity. Polyurethane floor paint is recommended.
Anti-slip: For floors with large traffic and anti-slip requirements, you can choose a floor paint containing anti-slip particles.
Easy to clean: The surface of the floor paint is smooth and easy to clean. If it is used in a food factory or a pharmaceutical workshop, you can choose a seamless epoxy floor paint.
3、Consider construction and maintenance costs
Construction time and temperature: If the ambient temperature is low or the construction requires quick completion, you can choose a quick-drying epoxy or polyurethane floor paint.
Maintenance cost: Long-term durability and maintenance cost should be considered, such as polysiloxane floor paint, whose high gloss and weather resistance can reduce maintenance frequency.
4、Choose floor paint with good environmental performance
Environmentally friendly floor paint: Choose low-VOC, odor-free floor paint, especially in crowded places such as schools, hospitals, shopping malls, etc. It is recommended to use water-based epoxy floor paint or water-based polyurethane floor paint.
5、Budget and cost-effectiveness
Epoxy floor paint is usually cost-effective and suitable for large-area industrial floors.
Polyurethane and polysiloxane floor paints are relatively expensive, but they perform better in durability and weather resistance and are suitable for areas with higher performance requirements.
Different floor paints are suitable for different scenarios. When choosing, you should give priority to the specific needs of the use environment. Make sure to communicate your specific requirements clearly with the supplier and conduct small sample tests to obtain the desired effect.
