Epoxy XLR8 | Fast-Cure Additive & Accelerant for Eco Epoxy Shield
Don't let cold weather or tight deadlines slow your project down. Epoxy XLR8 is a high-speed curing additive designed to be mixed directly into your Eco Epoxy Shield coatings.
By safely speeding up the chemical drying process, it slashes waiting times and ensures your epoxy hardens perfectly—allowing you to finish your floor in record time, even in the dead of winter.
Why Use Epoxy XLR8?
Supercharge Your Drying Time: XLR8 drastically cuts down the waiting time between your first and second coats. It allows you to hit your project milestones faster and get back to using your space sooner.
The Ultimate Winter Trick (Low-Temperature Cure): Standard epoxy struggles to dry and can remain sticky if the weather is too cold. This additive solves that exact issue by lowering the temperature required for a perfect cure, ensuring a reliable, rock-hard set even in chilly winter environments.
Same-Day, Two-Coat Application: Using Epoxy XLR8 allows you to apply two complete coats of epoxy in a single day, effectively cutting your project timeline in half. This massive boost in efficiency saves you days of disruption and gets your cars back in the garage faster.
Professional-Grade Efficiency: Used by professional contractors across Australia to eliminate project downtime, save on labour costs, and achieve a consistent finish when conditions are less than ideal.
Easy Dosage Guide (Based on 25°C)
You have complete control over how fast you want your epoxy to dry. Simply mix the required 200ml packs directly into your standard 15-litre epoxy kit:
For 30% Faster Drying: Add exactly one 200ml pack per 15-litre kit.
For 60% Faster Drying: Add exactly two 200ml packs per 15-litre kit.
⚠️ Important DIY Application Tips
Because Epoxy XLR8 makes the chemical reaction happen much faster, it requires you to change how you work on the day:
⏳ Work Quickly: Once you stir XLR8 into your epoxy bucket, the mixture's "pot life" (the time you have to work with it before it hardens) is significantly reduced. Make sure your floor is fully prepared, and pour the product onto the floor immediately after mixing—don't leave it sitting in the bucket!
🛑 Don't Overdo It: Stick strictly to the dosage guide above. Adding more than two packs to a 15-litre kit will not make it dry faster; instead, it can make your finished floor brittle or cause it to turn yellow under severe stress.
