Floor Finish for Commercial and Retail
THE EPIC® SOLUTION
FOR EASY TO CLEAN FLOORS
EPIC High-Performance Floor Finish is the preferred floor finish for commercial and retail buildings because it provides superior protection against damage from foot traffic and furniture.
Retail and commercial buildings constantly suffer from scratches and scuffs as customers and employees drag in dirt, rainwater, snow, road salt, and other particles that constantly damage floor surfaces. Typically, the traditional barrier for this type of abrasion is acrylic wax finish. Unfortunately, wax requires intensive routine maintenance and only lasts 3-6 months before needing to be stripped and recoated. UDT’s EPIC High-Performance Floor Finish, however, serves as an excellent sustainable solution to this toxic cycle!
IMPROVED INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ)
Did you know that buffing is a health hazard? Buffing an acrylic-coated floor launches chemicals, dust particles, viruses, and bacteria into the air. Fortunately, EPIC offers a unique solution! It eliminates the need for buffing entirely. With EPIC, floors stay shiny, and businesses continue operating smoothly, free from the frequent interruptions and scheduling headaches caused by wax finishes. EPIC also improves building safety thanks to its extremely low levels of registered volatile organic compounds (VOCs), helping building occupants breathe easier.

MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
In addition to eliminating the need for buffing, EPIC requires just one thin recoat every 3-5 years, even in high-traffic areas! That means you’ll face recoat interruptions only occasionally, keeping your business running smoothly. Our advanced coating technologies allow people to walk on the floors in as little as 4 hours ( the 8-hour cure option can also be utilized if desired). Cleaning EPIC-coated floors is also incredibly simple. You only need water, or a neutral cleaner and an auto scrubber, or a microfiber mop.
EPIC reduces labor time and slashes material costs, helping businesses save up to 71% on annual floor maintenance. Over time, those savings can add up to thousands of dollars. With those funds, you can redirect toward more urgent, high-impact projects. With EPIC, you can finally reduce the maintenance resources devoted to floorcare and focus on other important building priorities.
ENHANCES & PROTECTS MANY FLOOR TYPES, EVEN TILE AND GROUT!
Whether you have LVT, VCT, sheet vinyl, linoleum, tile & grout, terrazzo or concrete floors, EPIC has the power to restore and transform surfaces to a like-new condition. Amazingly, it can even resist hand sanitizer, disinfectant, and medical-grade chemicals. Moreover, odors are eliminated from surfaces such as tile and grout in restrooms when UDT's EPIC Tile and Grout System is used. The powerful combination of Tile Pro Acid, UDT Grout Colorant, and EPIC High-Performance Floor Finish. yields a durable, non-porous, single barrier that locks out odor-causing bacteria.
A SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVE TO ACRYLIC WAX
Acrylic wax must undergo a stripping process before being recoated several times a year. This outdated, environmentally toxic process sends multiple coats of acrylic wax finish and acrylic wax stripper down the drain. Even worse, routine maintenance of acrylic wax involves harsh chemicals.
EPIC truly supports sustainability because this water-soluble, biodegradable product does not need to be stripped. Instead of applying layer upon layer of wax and then eventually stripping it all off when it looks cloudy, yellow, and dingy, there is a better way to recoat floors. Just screen EPIC (after an impressive 3-5 years post-application), apply another single coat, and leave the task of stripping floors in the past!
Also, you only need to use water or other neutral/mild cleaner to maintain EPIC. This means you can cut out harsh chemicals from a floorcare regimen entirely. The result? You will be doing your part to clean up the floorcare industry AND saving time and money!
