Fast-Cure Systems — MavCoat FC & MavSeal UPA
When the shutdown window is measured in hours, the system has to keep up. The MavCoat FC rapid-cure basecoat and MavSeal UPA polyaspartic topcoat install, cure, and return to service inside a single weekend — often inside a single shift.
Built for Schedules That Don't Move
Every hour a floor is offline costs money. MavCoat FC is a hybrid epoxy-polyurea basecoat applied at 16 mils DFT with rapid cure chemistry — engineered for facilities where downtime equals lost revenue. Rapid recoat times let our crews prime, build, and topcoat in one continuous sequence, then hand the floor back the next morning.
The system finishes with MavSeal UPA, a high-solids polyaspartic topcoat with UV stability and fast cure. UPA holds its clarity and color at exterior doors, under skylights, and in showrooms where epoxies amber — and brings the chemical resistance high-traffic environments demand.
Why Teams Specify the FC / UPA System
- Recoat in 2–4 hours. Full multi-coat systems install in a single mobilization.
- Same-day foot traffic. Light traffic in 4–6 hours; full vehicle traffic in 24.
- Return to service in hours, not days — FC's hybrid epoxy-polyurea chemistry is built for facilities where downtime equals lost revenue.
- UV-stable, non-yellowing finish — the MavSeal UPA topcoat protects daylight exposure and color-critical spaces.
- High abrasion and chemical resistance at a fraction of the film build of slower systems.
- Low odor, low VOC — suitable for occupied facilities and phased work.
Fast-Cure System Cross-Section
Nominal 20–30 mil three-coat build: primer, MavCoat FC basecoat, and MavSeal UPA topcoat. The basecoat receives a full decorative flake or sand broadcast, which adds texture, hides substrate variation, and locks the topcoat into the system.
