MPC-100
Base Epoxy Coating System
Introducing MPC-100
MPC-100 is a 2-component, 100% solids, self-leveling, and high-build epoxy floor coating. It is designed to be a protective floor coating on concrete, either over an existing epoxy coating or to create metallic or decorative flooring systems. It can also be used as the binder component for resurfacing or patching surfaces exposed to severe and aggressive industrial environments. MPC-100 is a specifically formulated cycloaliphatic coating that reduces water spotting and amine blushing while providing excellent adhesion, abrasion, impact, and chemical resistance. This seamless coating from Master Protective Coatings is available in a wide range of colors. It can be top-coated with various MPC products to achieve different gloss finishes and textures. This coating contains no solvent, is compliant with the CFIA regulations for indirect food contact, and meets the VOC regulations limit of under 100 g/L for architectural floor coatings.

Directions for Use
Surface Preparation
Clean surface thoroughly to remove dust, oil, grease, and contaminants.
Mechanically prepare concrete to ICRI-CSP2 profile (e.g., diamond grinding).
Ensure substrate is dry, sound, and free of curing agents or sealers.
Repair cracks or irregularities with MPC-125 epoxy crack filler.
Mixing Instructions
Condition components between 65°F and 86°F (18°C to 30°C) before use.
Pre-mix Part A (resin) and Part B (hardener) separately for 2–3 minutes.
Combine at a 2:1 ratio by volume (resin:hardener).
Mix thoroughly for 2–3 minutes with a low-speed drill (300–450 RPM).
For metallic applications, add 6 oz pigment to Part A, mix, let sit 30 minutes, then add Part B and mix again.
Application
Apply the first coat using a rubber squeegee, then back-roll with a 3/8″ (10mm) nap roller for uniform coverage.
Wait 8–12 hours before applying the second coat in the same manner.
For metallic or decorative finishes, follow specialized instructions available upon request.
Clean-Up
Clean tools and equipment with xylene immediately after use.
Once cured, product can only be removed mechanically.

- Storage:
- Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location
- Keep containers tightly sealed and away from incompatible substances.
- Disposal:
- Dispose of the product and containers according to local, regional, or national regulations.
- Prevent release into drains, soil, or natural waterways.
- Additional Warnings:
- The product may discolor if exposed to UV light or combustion by-products (e.g., propane heaters) during curing.
- Applying over porous or moisture-vulnerable surfaces without a vapor barrier may cause delamination.
