PRODUCT HISTORY AND OVERVIEW: ElectraGuard was originally invented for use in DOD munitions applications in 1992. Over the years it has been further refined with patented advancements in structural integrity. ElectraGuard is exclusive to United SCP and a proven performer at a realistic price. ElectraGuard is a two part epoxy. Unlike mere latex or one part epoxy floor paints that may last a year or two the ElectraGuard High Gloss System provides outstanding longevity. A 10 to 15 year life expectancy is typical for this product. The system is well suited for application on a variety of substrates including concrete, existing well bonded VCT, standard and antistatic vinyl tiles and sheet goods, standard and antistatic thick set epoxy and more.

The ElectraGuard High Gloss ESD Floor Paint System meets or exceeds the latest most stringent standards of electrical conductivity. Leave "as is" for low glare matt finish or top coat with ElectraThane and or ElectraGlaze for a diamond like shine and ultimate wear resistance that easily meets the recent ANSI ESD S 20.20-2007 standards.
