This makes it a more environmentally friendly choice for both commercial and residential applications.

UV Cured Rush
Rush vs Water Based
The main difference between water-based polyurethane and UV-cured polyurethane, such as Loba's WS Rush, is the method of curing. Water-based polyurethane cures through a process of evaporation and coalescence, where the water in the mixture evaporates and the polyurethane particles coalesce and harden over time. This process can take several hours or even days, depending on the environmental conditions. UV-cured polyurethane, on the other hand, cures almost instantly through exposure to ultraviolet light. When the UV light hits the polyurethane, a photochemical reaction occurs, causing the polyurethane to harden quickly. This results in a very durable and long-lasting finish that can be applied in thin layers. Loba's WS Rush is a type of UV-cured polyurethane that can be applied in very thin layers, resulting in a finish that is even more durable than traditional water-based polyurethane. The quick curing time of UV-cured polyurethane also means that floors can be used much sooner than with water-based polyurethane.
