Abstract
Compositions that impart surfaces with glossy finishes include a silicate and an organic component (e.g., a siliconate, etc.) and may also include a surfactant, a leveling agent, a silane coupling agent, and/or an acrylic latex. The silicate may be a lithium silicate and/or a colloidal silica. When the composition is applied to a flooring surface, gravity may enable it to spread substantially evenly across the surface. The composition imparts the surface with a glossy finish. A glossiness of the surface may be at least 80, as measured by a gloss meter set to a 60° angle of incidence.
