About this product
A polyaspartic topcoat with a recoat window you can miss: 2 to 12 hours, after which the floor must be abraded and cleaned. The sheet's pot life is 30 to 35 minutes but a separate line says mix only what can be applied in 20 to 25 minutes, so use the shorter one.
Using this specific product
Armor Garage ArmorPoly 80 is listed here as the Polyaspartic garage floor topcoat version for garage floor. For installing or finishing a floor, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.
Before you start
- Confirm the package says Polyaspartic garage floor topcoat; related versions can use different timing.
- For garage floor, pay particular attention to subfloor condition, trowel coverage, room temperature and traffic plan.
- Dry times are based on 72°F and 50% relative humidity. At 72°F (22°C) and 50% relative humidity.
How to check readiness
Test the least-ventilated area before walking, covering or replacing furniture. The data sheet gives a pot life of 30 to 35 minutes, though one line also says less than 15 minutes of working time. The data sheet gives a 12 hour recoat window; after that the coating must be abraded and cleaned. Before recoating, confirm the first coat matches the manufacturer’s stated condition; if the maximum window passed, check whether sanding is required.
Avoid this mistake
Foot traffic, furniture and rugs can have different return times.
