I have used ucoat it on three different occasions.
Blue, red and gray. all with the urethane top coat.

the most important thing is prep.
if it is new concrete it must be cured for at least 30 days they say....i think 90 is better, or even a year.
any oil or grease stains must be removed first.
then you must etch the slab with muriatic acid.

one had anti slip(aluminum oxide), the other had u-flecks, and the third had no additive.
i didnt like the aluminum oxide....it made sweeping to difficult.
the u flecks were better.

it isnt too slippery wet with the uflecks or anti slip, but if you have snow on your boots you WILL slip regardless. that is the only thing i dont like, the snow.
other than that it looks great...
my dogs paws and nails leave what looks like swirl marks on the top coat though...maybe i didnt let it cure enough..

When you use Muriatic acid you can use soda ash to neturalize it. It is a powder and easy to use. Still rinse like crazy and wait to or three days for the concrete to dry in the pores.
