Have questions? You’re not alone. Here’s what clients across industries ask us most.

🛡️

Protect-All® vs. Alternatives

Q: What makes Protect-All® better than epoxy systems like Res-Tek?
Protect-All® is built tougher. Unlike poured epoxy, it doesn’t crack, chip, or peel—plus it’s waterproof, heat-weldable, and designed for the long haul. It’s slip-resistant (NFSI certified), easier to clean, and requires no cure time. Res-Tek simply can’t compete when it comes to long-term durability and ROI.

Q: Does Protect-All® really hold up better over time?
Yes—Protect-All® outlasts coatings and epoxies by years. It resists wear from chemicals, moisture, impact, and daily abuse, making it ideal for industries that can’t afford downtime.

Q: Can Protect-All® be installed over existing floors?
In many cases, yes. It can be loose-laid or fully adhered over qualified substrates like concrete, wood, and some resilient floors—saving time and money on demolition.

🧼

Maintenance & Longevity

Q: How do I maintain Protect-All® flooring?
Simple. No waxing, no sealing, no drama. Clean with a neutral pH solution and an auto-scrubber or mop. It’s as low-maintenance as it gets for commercial flooring.

Q: How long does it last?
Installed correctly and cared for properly, Protect-All® can last 20+ years in demanding environments—double or triple the life of some coatings.

Most installs are completed within 1–3 days. Protect-All® doesn’t need cure time, so your space is back in action faster than with epoxy systems.

Q: Are heat-welded seams really worth it?
Absolutely. They form a watertight seal that keeps bacteria, grime, and moisture out—making them ideal for sterile or wet environments like hospitals and kennels.
