Polyaspartic coating has a different chemical composition to epoxy, The main differences are that polyaspartic has a higher ability to expand and contract in response to temperature changes. It’s also highly resistant to UV rays. This makes it an excellent choice for outside flooring as it won’t fade over time or separate from the concrete or surface beneath.
