Smith’s Polyaspartic 8000LO

Smith’s Polyaspartic 8000LO is a low-odor, solvent-based, high-performance 2-component, 76% solids aliphatic polyaspartic coating with a gloss finish. It yields a resilient, UV-stable, abrasion-resistant film for application to concrete, wood, or metal — as a primer, a topcoat, or part of a broadcast system like vinyl chip or quartz. Engineered for ease of use with a 1-to-1 mix ratio and a longer working time than most competitors’ polyaspartics, plus minimal odor during application. This is a drop-ship product, shipped fresh and factory-direct from the manufacturer.

Built for Demanding, Fast-Return Floors
