Basic Coatings’ StreetShoe Waterbased Finish has been on the market for quite some time. In fact, City Floor Supply’s own Mike Glavin has been selling this product since the late 80s! Let’s take a look to see why it is one of the leading products on the market today.

For a product to last as long as StreetShoe it has to be market proven. It doesn’t matter what the sales people say or advertisements claim. Until customers use the product and determine its value, there’s no saying how well the product will perform.

The performance of StreetShoe is exactly why customers keep coming back to it time and time again. This is a product that is extremely durable and wears well. This water-based finish forms a film that is smooth, flat, uniform, and durable. Because the finish is thin and clear, there is no “plasticky” look. Once StreetShoe is applied 90% of it dries in 24 hours. This is a great benefit for commercial applications.

In fact, StreetShoe can be used in all major applications: residential, sports, and commercial flooring. At City Floor Supply we’ve had customers use StreetShoe on everything from museum floors to bars/restaurants. The StreetShoe finish is hard and durable enough to stand up to the heavy, rough use in those types of facilities.

StreetShoe’s longevity as a product can be attributed to its durability, but there are other great benefits as well. This finish is a two part component. The second part is a catalyst that improves scratch, scuff, mar, and chemical resistance. Unlike other two-part component systems, StreetShoe can be recatalyzed for future use. This means no more wasted finish. You can mix together a batch of finish and add catalyst again to use the product.

The proof of StreetShoe’s success is its history. Customers have come to rely on StreetShoe’s durability, ease of application, and breadth of application uses.
