EX-74 Clear Epoxy Coating – High-Gloss Finish with UV Resistance for Deep, Glass-Like Protection

EX-74 is a crystal-clear, high-gloss epoxy surface coating formulated to deliver a deep, glass-like finish in just a single layer. Ideal for artwork, bar tops, tabletops, wood projects, and decorative inlays, this premium coating creates a rich, protective surface with exceptional clarity and shine.

With built-in UV inhibitors, EX-74 helps resist yellowing due to sunlight exposure—making it a popular choice for projects where long-term clarity matters. While it's not intended for continuous outdoor exposure, it provides outstanding results indoors, especially when multiple coats are applied for added depth and durability.

✔ Features & Benefits:

  • Ultra-Clear Finish – Produces a deep, smooth, glass-like surface in a single pour

  • UV Inhibitors – Formulated to help resist yellowing over time

  • Tough, Durable Coating – High tensile and flexural strength with excellent hardness

  • Extended Working Time – Up to 25 minutes open time in the container and up to 1 hour on the surface

  • Low VOC Formula – Zero VOCs for safer use in enclosed or sensitive environments

  • 1:1 Mix Ratio by Volume – Simple and easy for first-time users and professionals alike

TIP: Always seal porous surfaces (like wood or canvas) with a thin brushed layer of EX-74 before pouring your final coat to prevent bubbles and uneven absorption.
