Hi Daniel. No, the Sherwin-Williams product you list will not perform nearly as well as Nohr-S. It&#039;s a 1-part water-based polyurethane created for indoor use where no to low VOC products should be used. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.sherwin-williams.com/painting-contractors/products/armorseal-hs&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;ArmorSeal HS Polyurethane&lt;/a&gt; will performs much better than the water-based counterpart, but it&#039;s still not as good as Nohr-S. 

I would check with Grainger for the non-slip wax products over tile. They are a major supplier of janitorial products for such purposes.]]></description>

Good morning, and thank you for the reply’s!  As an update, the builder has stated they’re not going to help with the epoxy top coat, so I’m preparing to tackle this in the upcoming weeks.  A friend of mine has extremely discounted access to Sherwain Williams products and after briefly looking through the top coat options I saw that they offer a one part urethane called Armor seal 1k WB. Would this be comparable to the Nohr-s?  

Also, no I had not considered (or was even aware of) the wax coating options for improving tile grip.  Seems like a decent solution. Again, this would be for a tiled garage, is there a brand you recommend? Thank you in advance!]]></description>

Hi Daniel. Most tiles are not a good candidate for coatings, particularly if you have a variety of different tiles that were used. The issue is the required prep to get a coating to adhere properly to each type of tile. Porcelain and ceramic tiles in particular require a lot of abrasive prep or the coating will peel. There are some waxes designed to create a less slippery surface for tiles. Have you looked into those?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank you for the advice. In a strange turn of events it turns out the builder did not top coat the epoxy garage floor, and the flakes are coming off at a rapid pace. I am working towards trying to get them to repair/redo the floor. If they decline, the backup plan is to use the Nohr-S as you’ve suggested.
On another note, my old house (turning into a rental) has a tiled garage floor.  The tiles are a mix and match from leftover projects and unfortunately get a bit slippery when wet.  Is there a transparent option (or mostly transparent) to add grip to these tiles permanently?  If not, can you suggest a colored roll on that is easy to use ?
Thank you in advance for the help!]]></description>

Hi Daniel. I looked at the data sheets for Stone Coat Polyaspartic and it has very limited information, none of which reveal an approximate idea of how it should perform. Our recommendation would be a single-part polyurea. It is a coating that is highly chemical resistant, stain resistant, UV stable, and abrasion resistant for long wear. We have quite a bit of information on &lt;a href=&quot;https://allgaragefloors.com/polyurea-best-garage-floor-coating-kits/&quot; title=&quot;Why the Best DIY Floor Coating Kits are Single-Part Polyurea&quot; rel=&quot;ugc&quot;&gt;single-part polyurea here&lt;/a&gt;. We think one that will work well for you is called Nohr-S from Legacy Industrial out of Florida. There are links where you can purchase it in the article, and we also have links for it on our &lt;a href=&quot;https://allgaragefloors.com/shop-polyurea-garage-kits-coatings/&quot; title=&quot;Single-Part Polyurea Coatings and Kits&quot; rel=&quot;ugc&quot;&gt;Shop Polyurea page here&lt;/a&gt;. You will want to purchase the optional anti-slip media to provide good grip when it gets wet. Application will require that you rough up the current surface with 120-grit sandpaper, sweep/vac, and then wipe down the surface with denatured alcohol or equivalent. Keep in mind that a UV stable clear coat will not block UV rays to protect the epoxy color coat. As a result, the epoxy may still &lt;a href=&quot;https://allgaragefloors.com/why-epoxy-coatings-turn-yellow/&quot; title=&quot;Why Epoxy Coatings can Turn Yellow and How to Prevent It&quot; rel=&quot;ugc&quot;&gt;experience ambering (yellow tint)&lt;/a&gt; if exposed to direct sunlight. If you have any questions, lets us know.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I just moved into a newly built home that has a flaked epoxy floor in the attached garage. The floor is still brand new and absolutely perfect.  It looks great but I was advised to top coat it for added durability.  I’m in south Florida and the garage is open fairly often so UV protection is huge and I don’t want any yellowing or fading. I also service my cars in there so it needs to be able to have a jack stand drag across it and withstand the car weight on jacks on occasion .  It also rains a lot so it needs to stay grippy when wet (which it currently has tons of traction with those flakes).  I am a DYI with a history of using polyurethane sealers on brick pavers, so some limited experience.  Any specific brand or kit recommendations for my circumstance?  Something easier to work with? I came across “Stone Coat’s polyaspartic top coat” which looks seems fairly easy to apply, but hoping for a suggestion or direction. Thanks in advance!]]></description>
