With the brand of epoxy that we use, it has self-adhesion properties making it a great candidate for both primer and epoxy. With its self-leveling properties, epoxy is the easiest and lowest cost choice of flooring application to pick from. How thick can I pour epoxy on floor?
- 1 gallon at 5 mils thick will cover 320 sq. ft.
- 1 gallon at 10 mils thick will cover 160 sq. ft.

Majority of epoxy flooring jobs require more than one coat, Typically, 2-3 coats of epoxy are required, which must cure for 12-24 hours depending on the environment, depth of pour, etc. The issue with choosing only one coat, is the result of your substrate being able to come through as visible, as well as the durability of your epoxy floor. Depending on whether the job is commercial or residential, most typically a polyaspartic topcoat is used to improve coating longevity over epoxy.

Most projects required 2-3 coats of epoxy, depending on your use of the flooring, and if you choose to incorporate a flake system as well.

With our high-quality epoxy systems, we only need to sand during the 'prep' stage. Due to the epoxies self-leveling and high adhesion properties, each coat produces a level, and gloss finish that does not required sanding/buffing between coats. HOWEVER: proper prep work is the key to ensuring each coat of epoxy is a success.

Other brands of epoxy may require you to use a primer beforehand, however our epoxy products incorporate priming properties that allow the epoxy to have a full seal and adhesion to the substrate (most typically concrete) as long as the surface is properly prepared beforehand.

Yes! You can epoxy a painted concrete floor. Depending on the condition of the floor, we most likely will have to sand the floor as done with any other epoxy project, to ensure we maximize the surface area of your floor, and have a prepped surface ready to have epoxy poured onto.

Yes! We recommend to all clients to use between 2-3 coats of epoxy, depending on their needs with the floor, and if they choose a flake system or not.

Yes! When installing epoxy flooring, we never recommend doing a single coat of epoxy. All of our projects are done with 2-3 coats, ensuring complete coverage, durability, and longevity of your flooring.

- Economical flooring choice
- Resistant to damage
- Weather-withstanding
- Aesthetically pleasing
- Protects and decreases wear & tear
- Long life-time

- Strong application fumes
- Long curing time
- Can be slippery when wet
- Can scratch more easier over polyaspartic

Epoxy floors typically do not scratch easily, due to its hard resin coating. However, over time and wear it can produce scratches, unlike polyaspartic which is harder and typically more sought after for floors that have high activity and weight levels.

Epoxy floor peeling typically occurs when improper prep work has been done, resulting in bubbles, and poor adhesion. Also, if you do not have a properly poured and covered application, or extreme temperatures, you can also run into the issue with your floor peeling.

Epoxy floor longevity ultimately results in the use of the floor, and exposure to UV light. Most residential applications can be kept looking new for over 10 years, however poor maintenance, and heavy traffic/weight such as in industrial applications can cause quicker wear of the flooring, resulting in the need for maintenance or a new coat of epoxy. Any clients looking at longevity in their floors, we recommend using polyaspartic especially as a top coat, due to its UV resistance, durability, and longevity of it.

Yes! Before pouring and applying epoxy, the floor is first degreased, acid etched, and any concrete cracks or imperfections are filled and fixed. Once the prep-work is completed, a thoroughly sand and vacuum is completed to ensure the surface is at optimal adhesion levels to stick to the epoxy.

Warm water and a mop/deck-scrubbing brush will suffice in keeping your epoxy floor clean. Be wear of soap-based floor cleaners that can leave a hazy/cloud on your epoxy floor which can build up over time. In the case of more intense spills, seek for a 'soft-soap' cleaner in conjunction with your warm water mixed.

Yes! We suggest grinding to all of our customers to ensure the epoxy flooring is well adhesive, and can be properly poured without imperfections. Some floors require more sanding than others, but the biggest key is ensuring consistency across the entire floor.

Yes you can recoat epoxy flooring, however you will need to prepare your surface so that it can adhere to the epoxy coat. This preparation must include proper cleaning with a grease-cutting detergent to remove oil or other contaminants.

Before epoxy, it is important to prepare your concretes surface so that it is free of contaminants, fixed of imperfections, and properly sanded to optimize adhesion. With our epoxy having self-priming properties, as long as the prep work is properly carried out, there is no need for a seperate 'primer' over concrete.
