Bone Dry Epoxy Modified Coating
Bone Dry EM (epoxy modified) Coating is a durable, VOC-free, 2-part epoxy modified surface coating with excellent chemical resistance to the common manufacturing, production and warehouse fluids, gasoline, anti-freeze, brake fluid, solvents, salts, acetone, alcohol and puddling water. Bone Dry EM Coating’s durability will withstand scratching, forklift traffic and bonds to concrete and existing sealers.
What are Modified Epoxy Sealers?
Modified epoxy is an altered sealer, modified to incorporate other properties. Bone Dry's EM Coating is formulated for increased flexibility, low shrinkage, high peel strength and extreme resistance to high traffic conditions. We combine the traditional elements of epoxy with added, beneficial features.

Concrete Floor Preparation
Steps | |
Remodeled Surfaces | Clean surface debris, peeling coating, or cracking. Surface must be dry. |
Newly Cured Concrete Surfaces | Allow slab to cure for 28 days before application. Clean surface of debris, peeling coating, or cracking. Slab must be dry. |
How to Apply Bone Dry EM Coating
Equipment Needed: Have on hand a power drill with a mixing paddle and the desired application equipment. EM Coating can be applied using a sprayer or roller with rolling tray.
- Clean the concrete to remove any dust and debris. Powerwash the slab if needed. Our Bone Dry Degreaser can be used when powerwashing to assist in removing tough stains.
- Mix part B into part A and blend the mixture with the drill and paddle.
- If applying with a sprayer, apply one coat with a slight overlap and fully wet the concrete.
- If applying with a roller, wet the roller and spread the product uniformly across the surface.
- Allow the sealer to dry overnight prior to allowing normal traffic. Allow the sealer to dry for 48 hours prior to allowing vehicle traffic.
- Clean all tools immediately after use.
How to Apply
Bone Dry EM Coating can be applied using a ¼” nap roller, pump sprayer, or battery powered sprayer.
Application Using Roller
Using a paint tray, soak the roller and roll the product onto the surface. Only 1 coat is required. Allow the product to dry for 48 hours prior to allowing foot traffic. As the product cures a white discoloration will occur which will dissipate within 48 hours. Allow the product to cure 72 hours before allowing vehicle traffic.
Application Using Sprayer
Using a pump or battery powered sprayer, apply 1 coat liberally with a 50% overlap. Allow the product to dry for 48 hours prior to allowing foot traffic. As the product cures a white discoloration will occur which will dissipate within 48 hours. Allow the product to cure 72 hours before allowing vehicle traffic.
