High-solids performance without the solvent-based tradeoffs

By Dani Sheehan. 

Learn about APF Polymer Surfaces’ new high-performance coating designed to meet today’s VOC and durability demands. 

As performance expectations rise and VOC regulations tighten, coating manufacturers are being pushed to deliver more without compromising quality. APF Polymer Surfaces now offers the performance of traditional solvent-based urethanes in a high-solids, water-based system that remains VOC compliant across the U.S., including California. 

APF Poly 600 is a two-component, high-performance coating engineered to deliver performance properties equal to conventional solvent-based catalyzed urethanes without the strong odor or VOC concerns typically associated with those systems.  

Compared to traditional water-based polyurethanes, Poly 600 offers: 

• Higher film build capabilities 
• Superior abrasion resistance 
• Improved gloss retention 
• A harder, more durable finish 

Typical applications 

Developed as a high-performance finish coat for seamless flooring and architectural applications, APF Poly 600 is ideal for environments where downtime, odor and long cure times simply aren’t an option. Its hard, high-gloss surface is easy to clean and built to withstand heavy use, making it a strong fit for hospitals and healthcare facilities, concrete countertops and high-traffic retail spaces. It’s also well-suited for demanding commercial and industrial settings, including aircraft hangars, automotive repair facilities and garage floors.  

At a glance 

• Resistant to fuels and many chemicals 
• Hard, high gloss, easily cleaned surface 
• Excellent abrasion resistance 
• Graffiti resistant when applied on walls 
• VOC compliant, even in California 

See it in action at World of Concrete! 

Live product demonstrations will be happening continuously at their booth O31609 during World of Concrete (WOC), January 20-22, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Attendees can see APF systems demonstrated firsthand, including Decorative, Quartz and Armor-Rez Systems. 

If you’re looking for a high-performance, VOC-compliant coating solution that doesn’t compromise durability or appearance, APF Poly 600 is one product worth adding to your tool kit.
