What is Trailer Coatings?

Trailer floors take heavy vibration, frame flex, and aggressive temperature swings that crack standard epoxy. Our trailer coating system uses a high-elongation polyaspartic base engineered to flex with wood or metal decking during travel. A full broadcast of vinyl flake adds impact resistance and traction, sealed with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat that resists fuel, oil, and road wash.

How It Works

We start with aggressive surface preparation, grinding or sanding wood and metal decking to cut a proper adhesion profile. The high-elongation polyaspartic base layer is built for surfaces that move. It stretches and rebounds with the trailer on the highway instead of cracking and letting go like rigid epoxy. Vinyl flake is broadcast into the wet base for texture, appearance and traction. A UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat seals the system, handling fuel, oil, hydraulic fluid and cleaning chemicals, plus sun exposure for trailers stored outside.

Ideal For

Enclosed cargo trailers
Toy haulers and RVs
Landscaping and contractor trailers
Race and motorsport haulers
Mobile work units and tool trailers
Horse and livestock trailers
Utility and equipment trailers
Food service and concession trailers

Key Benefits

Decorative Custom Options

Dozens of flake colours and blends instead of the limited solid colours of a spray-on liner

Smooth Professional Finish

A finished, attractive surface rather than the rough sandpaper texture of spray-on liners

Handles Temperature Extremes

Performs through Alberta freeze-thaw cycles without cracking, peeling or delaminating

Chemical and Fuel Resistant

Polyaspartic topcoat handles gasoline, diesel, oil, hydraulic fluid and cleaning chemicals

UV-Stable

Resists yellowing and chalking even with outdoor storage and sun exposure

Anti-Slip Texture

Flake broadcast creates reliable traction when wet, which matters for safe loading and unloading

Protects Wood Floors

Seals the deck against moisture, rot and chemical damage, extending floor life

Moves With Your Trailer

High-elongation polyaspartic stretches and rebounds with trailer movement instead of cracking like rigid epoxy

Our Installation Process

1

Surface Assessment

Inspecting the deck for damage, rot, moisture content and existing coatings, and deciding whether repairs or substrate replacement come first.

2

Surface Preparation

Grinding or sanding to cut a proper adhesion profile. Existing coatings, paint and sealers come off. Wood decks are checked for moisture and rot.

3

High-Elongation Polyaspartic Base Coat

The flexible base layer bonds to the substrate and moves with the trailer on the road. This is the layer that keeps the floor from cracking, and it is where standard epoxy fails.

4

Flake Broadcast

Vinyl flake is broadcast into the wet base coat for texture, appearance and traction. Flake also adds thickness and impact resistance.

5

Scrape and Vacuum

Once cured, loose flake is scraped and vacuumed off to leave a clean, uniform surface for the topcoat.

6

Polyaspartic Topcoat

A UV-stable polyaspartic clear coat seals the floor for chemical resistance, fuel and oil protection, and long-term durability.

Care & Maintenance

Sweep out debris regularly. Gravel, dirt and sand will scratch any coating over time. The sealed surface can be hosed out or pressure washed without damage. For stubborn fuel, oil or chemical staining use a mild degreaser and rinse thoroughly. The flake texture handles hard trailer use and still cleans up easily. Avoid dragging sharp edges across the floor when loading.
