What does 100% Solids mean Is it a water base?
100% Solids coatings contain no solvents or water. They are essentially solvent base coatings formulated without the need for solvents because their viscosities are low enough for application as supplied. When 100% solids coatings are applied at a given thickness, the cured film is of equal thickness because there are no volatiles (water or solvent) to evaporate. For example: One coat of a 60% solids epoxy applied at 10 mils thickness on a floor will cure at 6 mils thick. A 100% solids epoxy applied at the same 10 mils thick, cures 10 mils thick.
