Smith’s Polyaspartic 5000LO — Low-Odor Floor Coating

Smith’s Polyaspartic 5000LO is a high-performance, low-odor, high-solids polyaspartic floor coating — a two-component, UV-stable, aliphatic coating with a gloss finish and a fast return to service. Its low odor makes it ideal for occupied and sensitive spaces (schools, healthcare, food & beverage), and it gets a floor back in service the next day.

Why Polyaspartic 5000LO?

Polyaspartics are prized for speed and durability — and the 5000LO adds low odor, which makes a real difference in occupied buildings where you can’t fill the space with fumes. You get a tough, UV-stable, chemical-resistant floor that’s back in service the next day, with a workable application window and a finish that stands up to traffic, chemicals, and hot tire pickup. It’s a strong choice wherever downtime and odor both matter.

Important to Know

Polyaspartic 5000LO is a professional coating with specific requirements:

• Applied by brush/roller (dip-and-roll) — do NOT spray (harmful vapors)
• A primer is recommended over bare concrete to avoid trapped air bubbles
• Concrete moisture testing is highly recommended before application
• Proper mechanical surface prep (diamond grinding or shot blasting) is required

Because it’s a demanding professional product with a full system behind it, we’ll help you plan the prep, primer, and application. Call us — and see the full data sheet for complete specs and instructions.
