The invention relates to a method for reducing water content of an epoxy or/and polyurethane paint dispersion to be prepared in a sealed and pressurized aerosol can which paint dispersion comprises, —free water of an amount W1, —organic solvent(s) of an amount W2,5-epoxy or/and polyurethane resin of an amount W3, —liquefied propellant of an amount W5, —ketone of an amount W6, —blocked hardener (hardener precursor) of the epoxy or/and polyurethane resin of an amount W4, wherein said blocked hardener compounds of said epoxy or/and 10 polyurethane resin is selected from the group comprising of an aldimine, an enamine, an imine, a Mannich base, a Schiff's base, an oxazolidine or a bisoxazol-idine, and mixtures thereof, —adjuvants, —water scavenger(s), —catalytic amount of a weak acid to shift equilibrium of reversible reaction (I) between the free water present in said dispersion and blocked hardener compounds of the epoxy or/and polyurethane resin back to formation of said initial epoxy or polyure-thane blocked hardener compounds and to prevent formation of the epoxy or/and polyurethane hardener amines: expoxy and/or polyurethane hardener+ketones catalyst expoxy and/or polyurethane+free water (amine) hardener precursor (1). The method comprises a step in which before providing organic solvent into the aerosol can its water content is reduced by admixing reactant with sulfonyl isocya-nate functionality as a water scavenger into said organic solvent.

A floor protection system including (i) optionally at least one epoxy resin primer, (ii) at least one polyurethane coating, (iii) optionally quartz sand, which has been scattered into and/or onto the polyurethane coating, and (iv) an epoxy resin sealant, obtained from a resin component containing at least one epoxy liquid resin and a hardener component containing at least one amine of formula (I). The floor protection system has an aesthetically pleasing, hard and robust surface and a good dynamic crack bridging with surprisingly high elasticity of the sealant. The system is particularly suitable as a surface protection system for parking levels and drivable ramps.
