2/ apparently the latex paint manufacturers realized that people were buying true 2-part epoxy paints, but these are (a) expensive, (b) hard to use. They came up with a solution! Mix in 0.5-1% of one component of an epoxy into latex paint, market it as "1 part epoxy". >>>

3/ The A component of the epoxy is TOTALLY USELESS without the B component hardener. It just serves as a bulk filler. ...but it lets the marketing guys make a claim on the label.

4/ Think about the evil genius of the phrase "1 part epoxy". It sure seems to telegraph "epoxy without all the complications of 2 parts you have to mix", but the reality is that they're selling you trace amounts of ONE PART of the epoxy. It is chef-kisses-fingers lawful evil.
