The floor area that I want to cover is 3 x 3m. So a 5L tin will cover as stated. The floor has some slight imperfections. How thick is the covering of a 5L tin, so that it will self level?

Thank you for your enquiry. This product has a theoretical consumption rate of 9m2/litre at 40 microns DFT (Dry-Film Thickness), with the recommended two coat application this would be a total of 80 Microns DFT.

How many litres would I need for two coats on a single garage floor?

This would depend on how large the area is you need to cover. The coverage rate of this product is 9m² per litre per coat. In the case of roller application it can be necessary to apply 2 coats.

Would this be ok ok a terracotta tiled floor??

Assuming the terracotta tiled floor is porous, only subjected to foot traffic, it is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet this could be used.

I am looking to paint my garage floor with Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra. As in most garages, the majority of the concrete floor is internal. However about 30cm of it protudes externally under the garage door, so it is permanently external. Can i use the 5200, with 5220 sealer, on this portion as well as on the internal garage floor? Is there anything suitable to apply on top of the 5200 if needed, or is the 5200 still OK in external as well as internal? Many thanks

Yes these products can be applied to concrete internally or externally. There is not a topcoat we can recommend to over paint this with.

Going to put this on my garage floor, approximately 30 years old. do I need to put a sealer on first or is it ok to apply this only.

Assuming the garage floor is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet, in most circumstances grinding the floor or acid etching the concrete will be required prior to application, then Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer should be applied prior to application of the floor paint.

Can I use the RUST-OLEUM EPOXYSHIELD DECORATIVE FLAKES with this paint?.Also,can you apply this paint with a brush? Thank you.

Rust-Oleum Epoxyshield Decorative Flakes are designed for use with 2 pack epoxy coatings such as the Rust-Oleum Garage Floor Kit or Rust-Oleum 5300 Epoxyshield Maxx . It is likely that the paint film will be too thin if using 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra to get a good hold of the flakes and ensure they stay in place. Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra can be applied with brush or roller.

can this be used on setcrete high performance self levelling compound. This SLC is designed as a wear surface. What primer would I use in conjunction with the SLC and Epoxy Ultra? Many Thanks

If the self levelling product you have used can be left as a wearing surface and the manufacturer of the product is happy for it to be coated with single pack water-based floor coatings (epoxy-modified acrylic) then yes Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra could be used. The data sheet for Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra states the followin under preparation; Remove oil, grease and all other contaminants with Rust-Oleum Epoxyshield Cleaner / Degreaser in combination with high pressure cleaning. Allow new concrete to set for at least 30 days before applying a coating. Remove laitance, loose and damaged concrete by sandblasting or etching with Rust-Oleum Mathys 108 Surfa Etch Solution . Repair all holes and cracks with EpoxyShield concrete repair products . Always pre-treat absorbent, porous surfaces with Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer . Roughen or blast well-sealed and smooth concrete and treat withRust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer or apply a coat Rust-Oleum 3333 Super Adhesion Primer . Roughen still-intact floor coatings to ensure good adherence. Remove poorly adhering old coatings with wire brush and sandpaper. During application the surface must be clean and dry.

I used one cost of the rustoleum 5200 Epoxy sealer last year on my concrete floor. Is it Ok to now use this epoxy paint to paint over it. Even though the sealer was put on about 8 months ago. I have cleaned the floor thoroughly. Will it still work well or do I need to grind it back to the original concrete & start from scratch?

Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer is recommended to prime/seal floors before Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra so you will not need to remove it. Before applying Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra, ensure the floor is clean, dry and lightly sand the Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer if necessary to remove any gloss and provide a key.

I have a concrete floor slab, flat but only hand smoothed. Is the sealer/primer a necessity?

Yes, the data sheet states 'Always pre-treat absorbent, porous surfaces with Rust-Oleum 5220 Epoxyshield Sealer .'

Would thus paint be suitable for use on floorboards in a bedroom and do you need to use a primer with it as old floorboards are currently bare wood.

Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra is recommended for concrete surfaces, for domestic floorboards customers have previously used Blackfriar Professional Acrylic Floor Paint . Bare surfaces require a sealer (Blackfriar Professional Water Based Floor Sealer or for small areas dilute Blackfriar Professional Acrylic Floor Paint with 10% water), then apply 2 coats of the floor paint as recommended. The coating should be allowed to fully harden before moving furniture about. Allow 7 days for the coating to cure hard. Any sharp objects moved across the floor may damage the coating, felt pads can be used under chair legs, bed frame lags etc and will minimise any damage.

Is the water based rust oleum 5200 epoxyshiled ultra a low odour paint? Thanks

Being water based, when used in the intended industrial/commercial environments Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra is indeed a low odour paint. Please note however this does not mean a NO odour paint.

Can Epoxyshield 5200 Ultra be used for covering o an old concrete path around the house (outside)? If not, what would you recommend for outside old concrete?

Rust-Oleum Tarmacoat has a larger colour range and would be more suited to this type of external application.

Can Rust-Oleum 5200 Epoxyshield Ultra be used on wooden floorboards in a kitchen?

No, but you could use Timberex Aqua Plus

ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour

Colour reproduction of the Products on the Site is limited by the technology used to deliver web pages and by the colour representation of Customer’s own monitor and computer set-up.

We recommend that Customer first purchases the smallest Product available or access an industry standard colour chart in person (and not digitally) to ensure that the colour is acceptable for its purposes.
