Abstract
Vinyl floor or wall tile is surfaced with a clear, durable wear layer. The wear layer comprises urethane compound photo-polymerized from a fluid coating composition having a volatility of at least 2 percent and comprising at least 2 photo-polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated groups of the general structure: ##STR1## where R is either H or CH.sub.3. The wear layer is applied to a continuous sheet of vinyl composition traveling at a rate of at least about 80 ft./min. at a temperature of at least about 110.degree. F., and cured by exposure to ultra-violet radiation.
