Epoxy Floor Quartz Sand Decorative Broadcast

  • Urethane coated quartz sand.
  • For use with Epoxy floor coatings.
  • Semi-angular quartz sand, coated with pigmented urethane.
  • Brightens or soften the environment by controlling the color and texture of the floor.
  • Quartz Sand blends colors have a minimum order size of 8 bags per blend color.
  • Specifications:
    • Packaging: 50 lb. bags.  Minimum order: 8 bags per colored blend.
    • Coverage: 50 lbs. of Urethane Coated Quartz Sand will cover about 65 square feet, at a Double Broadcast* rate.  A light broadcast can treat up to 100 sq. ft. per 50 lb. bag of sand.
      • *Double Broadcast: Quartz Sand is broadcast onto the wet epoxy, allowed to dry, another coating of epoxy put out, and then a lighter coating of the Quartz Sand broadcast again, followed by the final epoxy or urethane Top Coat.

    Application Instructions:

    • Apply a Base Coat layer of epoxy, such as SHIELD 50 at about 8 mils thick.
    • While Base Coat is still wet, broadcast the Urethane Coated Quartz Sand onto the Base Coat. (Use of Spiked Shoes will allow easier access to all areas of the floor).
    • Broadcasting can be done in a as thin or thick as desired.  Images of blended colors are from a 'Double Broadcast' application:
      • Double Broadcast: Apply Epoxy Base Coat, broadcast the Quartz Sand, let dry and then apply another light coat of Epoxy, and another broadcast of Quartz Sand.
    • When dry, clean the floor with broom/shop vac of all loose sand, and then apply the Top Coat, such as UV Shield Epoxy, or SuperGlaze 3600 Polyurethane.
