Why is Aqualine Satin a Healthy Sustainable Floor Finish?
The select, 100% pure acrylic in Aqualine Satin is of the highest grade available and is very safe. Pregnant women, babies, kids and those who are chemically sensitive tend to do very well with this product. Yet floor finish contractors love it because it works great and has the same application method they are used to. |

It's a gorgeous floor finish that is POLYURETHANE FREE! No isocyanates. NO NMP! No Ethylene Glycol! This becomes apparent as soon as you realize there is practically no odor and the floor is finished! Ready to be used. The same day! WOW!
Aqualine Satin is a floor finish made from a pure non toxic acrylic. When properly made, pure non toxic acrylic resin is highly durable and carries a low ecological footprint. Certain types of acrylic are very safe when carefully formulated. For instance, joint replacements, dental implants, suntan lotion, fleece clothing, aquariums. All of these are safe for human beings (and fish) and this is well proven over time. BUT, please, remember there are many acrylics that are not made in a healthy sustainable manner and often paint labeled as acrylic is actually blends of less safe resins.
Do You Prefer Semi Gloss?
Try NanoTech Sealer. This is our semi gloss Floor Finish.
Toxicity Information on Polyurethane and Floor Finish Production.
Bhopal Isocyanates : The Bhopal isocyanate chemical disaster must always be remembered. To be fair this particular isocyanate [MIC] may no longer be used in commonly produced polyurethane today. However, the isocyanate are very powerful and the chemical class as a whole is poorly studied in humans over long periods of time. We can all learn from from what happened there and God bless all who were harmed. Oceans of isocyanate are made every year and much of it is used unnecessarily, as Aqualine Satin proves. The Earth simply cannot handle oceans of poison made, year after year after year. There is a proper time and place for isocyanate use but that use must done with extreme care.
MDI and TDI are commonly used diisocyanates in polyurethane production today. Human studies, aquatic fate and and environmental reactions are things that we feel are harmed by over use of isocyanates. There are many good uses of poly but even those within the isocyanate industry acknowledge more must be learned.
