Permanent Color. Professional Results.

ColorRize is not paint. It is not a temporary coating. It is a hard-wearing, 2-component water-based polyurethane color system with a crosslinker — the same technology platform as Waxnomor and Marknomor — permanently bonded to the floor surface.

Once applied, ColorRize is sealed with Dr. Schutz® PU Sealer (Waxnomor) or Marknomor on top, giving the finished floor a permanent polyurethane wear layer that protects the color for years without polishing, stripping, or waxing.

Color selection spans 960 options across internationally recognized color systems: RAL-K5, NCS-S, Pantone, and Sikkens 4041 — meaning we can match virtually any architectural spec, brand color, or design requirement.

DECORATIVE FLAKE FLOORS

Better Than Epoxy. Without the Problems.

If you've been shopping garage floor coatings, you've seen the look: the decorative flake floor with a brilliant glossy finish. It's one of the most sought-after floor upgrades for residential garages, home gyms, workshops, and showrooms. Most of the market offers it in epoxy. We offer it in polyurethane: and that makes all the difference.

Epoxy floors crack. They peel. They yellow over time. Hot tires can pull epoxy right off the floor as they cool. These aren't rare problems: they're well-documented industry-wide. The Dr. Schutz® ColorRize system uses a 2-component polyurethane base instead. It bonds stronger, stays flexible, resists hot tire pickup, and does not crack, peel, or yellow like epoxy.

The colored polyurethane chips: available in 1mm and 3mm sizes, in a wide range of standard colors and blends: are broadcast into the wet ColorRize base coat, creating that signature decorative flake finish. The entire floor is then sealed with a permanent clear polyurethane topcoat. The result: a floor that looks better, lasts longer, and requires almost no maintenance compared to epoxy.

  • Hot tire pickup
  • Yellows over time

How the ColorRize System Works

01

Surface Prep

Floor is professionally cleaned, stripped of existing finishes, and prepared to accept the coating.

02

ColorRize Application

2-component polyurethane color is rolled on in at least two coats. For flake floors, colored chips are broadcast into the wet base coat.

03

Permanent Topcoat

Waxnomor or Marknomor is applied over the ColorRize layer, permanently sealing the color and providing long-term polyurethane protection.

Result: A permanent, beautiful, low-maintenance floor surface that lasts years without polishing, waxing, or stripping.
