Dur-A-Flex's Accelera flooring systems offer a unique combination of fast installation and high performance designed to meet the needs of today's 24/7 operations. Its innovative chemistry allows Accelera to deliver the same high performance features as traditional seamless flooring, but without the lengthy installation process or odor. Seamless resinous flooring has long been the perfect solution for many applications offering excellent chemical and stain resistance, outstanding wear characteristics, and minimal maintenance. Traditional systems tend to come with longer cure times and odor that can make installations in 24 hour, 7 day a week operations nearly impossible. Accelera flooring systems are designed specifically for application in these non-stop facilities.
- Fast curing to reduce downtime
- Low odor allows installation anytime
- High-performance decorative options

Application Method/Spread Rate
For each application of material and before mixing, mark your batches to ensure you achieve your spread rate targets. This is best accomplished by dividing your target spread rate by the width of the area being coated (or your planned wet edge). Example: If your spread rate is 100 square feet and your area is 20 feet wide you would make a mark every 5 feet (100 divided by 20 = 5). NOTE: SEPARATION IS NORMAL. Re-disperse by scraping sides with a paint stick and mixing for 30 seconds before mixing with hardener ACCELERA SATIN TOPCOAT is applied with a 12” flat window squeegee followed by a cross roll using a 3/8” nap roller at an approximate spread rate of 350 SF/kit (large kit) or 115 SF/kit (small kit). The small kit is recommended for use with wet edges of 20 feet or less. Mix and apply one batch at a time - do not mix hardener and resin together until batch is ready for immediate application. To ensure a consistent satin finish, scrape side of resin pail and premix for 15 seconds before adding hardener. Next pour the hardener into the resin container; scrape bottom and sides with a mix stick to assure that all material is transferred to the resin bucket. Use the hardener pail to scrape the mix stick and never scrape mix stick on the side of the mix pail. Using a ½” 750 rpm drill with a 3 inch jiffler blade, mix the resin and hardener for 30 seconds. Pour the entire batch onto the floor in a 4 to 6” ribbon. Use a flat squeegee over the grout coated surface to spread the material evenly, making sure to achieve your desired spread rate. Spread rate will be approximately 350 sf/kit (large kit), or 115 sf/kit (small kit). Cross roll the material pushing a 3/8 inch nap roller in the same direction immediately after the squeegee to ensure there are no puddles. All rolling should be completed within 5 minutes. Allow to cure for 2 hours (@ 70°f / 50% rh).
