Frequently asked questions
Surface suitability
What surfaces can Dura Grip E2 be applied to?
Dura Grip E2 works on concrete, tile, wood decking, metal including galvanised and stainless steel, resin floors, block paving, and existing epoxy floors. It is suitable for both interior and exterior use.
Can I use Dura Grip E2 on wooden decking?
Yes. We recommend priming first with our Epoxy Primer as wood is porous and will absorb the coating unevenly without it. The wood must also be completely dry with no trapped moisture before application.
Is it suitable for parquet or engineered wood flooring indoors?
We would recommend Floor Grip instead. Parquet expands and contracts with humidity, and epoxy is rigid once cured, so it can crack or lift as the wood moves.
Can it be applied over an existing coating?
Not over water based latex products such as Tuff Grip Clear, as the epoxy will react with them. The existing coating would need to be fully removed first. Epoxy over existing epoxy is fine.
Preparation
Do I need to prime before applying?
Priming is recommended on porous surfaces such as wood, concrete and block paving to ensure even coverage and better adhesion. On low porosity surfaces such as dense tile it is less critical, particularly if the surface has been etched first.
Do I need to etch the surface first?
On tiles and polished surfaces we recommend etching with Stone Grip to open up the pores and improve bonding. It is a recommendation rather than a strict requirement, but it will extend the life of the coating.
How important is moisture control?
Critical. Trapped moisture in the substrate is the most common cause of coating failure. Wood in particular can retain moisture deep in its fibres for weeks after the surface appears dry. We recommend using a moisture meter, aiming for a reading of 15 percent or below on wood.
How do I test for moisture?
A moisture meter is the most reliable method. Alternatively, tape a sheet of plastic or a paper towel to the surface for 24 hours and check for dampness underneath.
Do grout lines need filling first?
Yes, if you want a smooth uniform finish. Dura Grip E2 will not fill grout lines on its own.
Application
How many coats are needed?
Two coats. On surfaces with directional texture such as decking planks, apply the second coat at 90 degrees to the first to ensure full coverage in the grooves.
Do I have to mix the whole tin?
No. You can mix only what you need (4 to 1 ratio) for the job and store the remainder in a cool dry place for up to 5 years.
What PPE should I use?
Follow the safety instructions on the product TDS, which covers ventilation, masks and gloves.
Performance
What slip resistance does it achieve?
Dura Grip E2 achieves an average PTV of 60 to 80 in both wet and dry conditions.
Does it hold an R rating?
R ratings are determined by ramp testing rather than pendulum testing. If your project requires certified R10 or R11 compliance we recommend having the treated surface independently tested once applied.
How long does it last?
Around 2 years under normal conditions, potentially longer depending on traffic levels and maintenance.
Will it peel?
When applied correctly to a properly prepared and dry surface, no. It will gradually wear down over time with foot traffic, which is normal for any surface coating.
Is it suitable for forklift traffic?
It can be used, though for areas with regular forklift or heavy plant traffic we would recommend Ultra Grip for better longevity.
Will it handle standing water?
It performs well in wet environments including pool surrounds and changing rooms. Pooling water is fine provided it is cleaned up regularly rather than left to sit.
Is it waterproof?
The coating provides a degree of surface protection during its lifespan but is not classified as a waterproofing product. A dedicated waterproofing membrane should be used where waterproofing is required.
Appearance
Does the clear option change the look of the surface?
Dura Grip E2 cures to a matte finish. On a polished or glossy surface this will dull the existing shine, so it is worth considering if maintaining a polished appearance matters.
What colours are available?
A range including clear, black, white, yellow and greys.
Maintenance
How should I clean it?
Soft or natural soaps and a soft deck brush. Avoid bleach and alcohol based cleaners as these break down the coating over time.
Can I use a mechanical scrubber?
Yes. Machines such as a Rotowash with soft bristles are fine, though daily mechanical cleaning may wear the coating down slightly faster than mopping.
