Floors that Cure in 1 Hour
MAC-Guard Acrylic Flooring Systems
Floors that cure in 1 hour. MAC-Guard™ flooring systems provide the fastest route to a great floor. MMA has a fast and efficient curing process that allows for the floor to be returned to full service within one hour after the final coat at a wide variety of temperatures (-15°F to 100°F). The 100% solid, seamless, non-porous finish prevents liquids and pollutants from penetrating the coating, leaving a smooth, durable, easily cleanable surface. There are no grout lines or seams where bacteria growth can occur.
Industry Applications:
Kitchens, food prep lines, freezers/coolers, restrooms, laboratories, clean rooms, surgical suites, vivariums, hospital rooms, locker rooms, classrooms, manufacturing plants and more.
Additional Information
Floors that Cure in 1 Hour, even at Low Temperatures.
Yes, we really have a flooring system that cures in as little as 1 hour. Methyl-methacrylate (MMA) acrylic flooring offers this and other outstanding benefits for virtually any application, no matter how large or small. Once installed, a MAC-Guard™ acrylic flooring system resists deterioration, withstands temperature fluctuations, and is UV stable.
Ready for full traffic one hour after the last coat, saving operational downtime. Application can be done in colder temperatures down to -15°F using our low temperature formula.
100% Solid, Non-porous, Seamless Finish: Liquids and most pollutants do not penetrate the coating, leaving a smooth, durable, easily cleanable surface. There are no grout lines or seams where bacteria growth can occur.
Layered System: Each system consists of a primer, self-leveling body, and two topcoats, with additional resins available based on your needs. Architectural and slip resistant finishes add aesthetic and functional features as well.
Easy to Repair: Repairs are simple and can be completed quickly thanks to the 1-hour cure. Since the product “melts” into itself through a chemical reaction, the original system integrity is maintained.
Low Maintenance: No stripping or waxing is necessary. Simply cleaning with acrylic floor cleaner or degreaser will keep floors looking their best.
Chemical Resistant: Resistant to a wide variety of chemicals, excluding some solvents. Please ask us about any specific concerns or download our chemical resistance chart.
VOC Compliant in all US States: Once fully cured, a MAC-Guard™ system forms a 100% solid. No unreacted product remains.
Worth the Investment: Persistent flooring problems can start a vicious cycle, costing you time and money. With a MAC-Guard™ system, you can be assured your floor will last a long time and pay for itself several times over.
Bond Test: Proper surface preparation is determined prior to system installation via a bond test. Patties are formed from a mixture of Res-Tek primer and quartz sand, then placed in strategic locations throughout the prepared substrate. One hour later the patties are removed with a hammer and chisel. The underside of each patty should have concrete attached confirming sufficient surface preparation. This simple test ensures a permanently bonded floor that will not delaminate.
Resist™: This anti-microbial additive can be added to any Res-Tek system, boosting stain and odor resistance.
