Why Choose Flowcoat OP?
Flowcrete Flowcoat OP is a hard-wearing, low-VOC epoxy floor coating designed for demanding industrial, commercial and workshop environments. When installed as part of the appropriate Flowcoat OP system, it produces a seamless, protective and easy-to-maintain floor surface.
- Hard wearing – designed for demanding flooring environments.
- Abrasion resistant – tested to BS8204-2 with an AR2 classification.
- Chemical resistant – provides resistance to a range of chemical exposure once fully cured.
- Low VOC – VOC content below 140 g/L according to ASTM D2369-10:2015.
- Impermeable – nil water permeability reported under the Karsten Test.
- Easy to maintain – seamless and hygienic epoxy surface.
- Slip-resistant options – specified aggregate systems can provide higher levels of slip resistance.
Flowcoat OP System & Coverage
Flowcoat OP can be installed as a smooth or non-slip system. The required material quantity depends on the selected system.
| System | Finish | Coats | Aggregate | Slip Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3mm | Smooth Gloss | 0.2 + 0.2 kg/m² | None | P1 |
| 0.35mm | Light Non-Slip | 0.2 + 0.2 kg/m² | 60 Mesh White Aluminium Oxide 0.01 kg/m² |
>P3 |
| 1.5mm | Heavy Non-Slip | 0.25 + 0.55 kg/m² | 0.6–1mm Slip Resistant Aggregate 2.0 kg/m² |
>P4 |
Approximate smooth-system coverage: The 20kg supplied in this package provides approximately 50 m² at the specified two-coat consumption of 0.4 kg/m².
Actual coverage varies with concrete porosity, surface profile, preparation, application method and wastage. Non-slip and higher-build systems require different material quantities.
Recommended Applications

- Commercial workshops
- Warehouses
- Industrial facilities
- Maintenance areas
- Service areas
- Commercial concrete floors
Application Guide
Prepare the Concrete: The substrate must be sound, dry, clean and free from laitance, dust, oil, grease and other contamination. Concrete or screed should have a minimum compressive strength of 25 N/mm². Mechanically prepare the surface using enclosed light shot blasting or diamond grinding to a minimum CSP2 where specified.
1. Check Moisture: Substrate moisture should not exceed 75% RH in accordance with ASTM F2170 / AS1884:2012. Slab-on-ground concrete should have an effective damp-proof membrane.
2. Repair and Clean: Repair cracks, damaged areas and surface defects using suitable compatible repair materials such as Flowtex F1 Mortar. After mechanical preparation, thoroughly vacuum the floor to remove dust and loose particles.
3. Apply Primer Where Required: Flowprime AU is required only where specified, such as on porous substrates. Follow the current Flowprime AU technical data sheet for mixing, application rates and overcoat requirements. Where primer is used, Flowcoat OP should be applied within the specified overcoat window. Flowcrete's supplied specification states a maximum of 24 hours at 20°C.
4. Mix Flowcoat OP
Flowcoat OP is a two-component epoxy system supplied in pre-weighed packs.
- Stir Base A to re-disperse any settlement.
- Add Hardener B to Base A.
- Mix using a slow-speed drill with a helical mixer head for approximately 90 seconds.
- Avoid excessive air entrainment during mixing.
- Add between 2 - 7% (if required depending on conditions) Xylene and mix for a further 30 seconds
At approximately 20°C, mixed material should be used within approximately 20 minutes. Working time decreases at higher temperatures.
5. Apply the Coating: Apply Flowcoat OP using the appropriate 10–12mm nap roller and/or squeegee at the specified coverage rate.
For the standard smooth system, apply:
- First coat: 0.2 kg/m²
- Second coat: 0.2 kg/m²
Do not use a microfibre roller where prohibited by the manufacturer's application specification.
6. Apply the Second Coat: Apply the second coat within the manufacturer's specified overcoat window. At 20°C, the maximum stated overcoat time is 24 hours.
7. Allow to Cure: Curing times vary with temperature and conditions. Refer to the curing table below before allowing foot or vehicle traffic onto the finished floor.
Recommended Equipment
- 10–12mm nap roller
- Slow-speed drill with helical mixer
- Squeegee
- Digital scales where accurate weight measurement is required
- Industrial vacuum for dust removal
- Spike shoes where required for the selected system
Important Application Conditions
- Application temperature: 5°C–35°C.
- Substrate temperature must remain at least 3°C above dew point.
- Temperature should not fall below 5°C during the first 24 hours.
- Maximum overcoat time at 20°C: 24 hours.
- Avoid excessive airflow during application.
- Maintain adequate ventilation.
- Protect the finished floor from water for 5 days at 20°C.
- Flowcoat OP is not UV stable unless otherwise specified and may discolour when exposed to UV. UV Stable clear topcoat like Flowseal UV is recommended for external areas.
How to Apply Flowcoat OP Epoxy Floor Coating:
Application Guide
Prepare Surface
Ensure concrete is sound, dry, clean and mechanically prepared before application.
Repair & Check
Repair cracks and surface defects, then check moisture levels before application.
Mix & Apply
Mix the components thoroughly, then apply the epoxy at the specified coverage rate.
Finish & Cure
Allow the coating to cure fully before foot traffic, vehicle traffic or chemical exposure.
