Coastal Garage

We start by diamond grinding the floor with a vac assisted diamond grinder. The grinding profiles the floor so the epoxy has a good surface to adhere to. 

The vac assistance on the grinder keeps the dust levels to a minimum. After we have profiled the floor we make any necessary repairs to insure proper adhesion with a fast setting concrete patch…all floors, even new, have some repairs. Also if you have expansion joints or relief cuts you a have a couple different fill options for those….most go with a hard fill for a seamless floor.

Once the repairs are made and ground down we vacuum the entire area before starting our coating a flaking process. We roll out two coats of our base epoxy, the first coat is a primer coat, that seals the floor and creates a moisture barrier; the second coat applied acts as the adhesion for the flakes; the flakes give your floor its color blend and texture are broadcast into the second coat. 

We install a full broadcast flake floor, which means we get 95%-98% flake coverage over the entire area. The base epoxy is allowed to cure from anywhere from 2-4 hours (overnight during cooler temps) depending on temperatures; we then come back scrap off the rough edges of the flakes and apply our top polyaspartic/polyurea hybrid clear coat. 

Twenty-Four hours after the top clear coat is applied you can return to full usage of the area and most installs are completed in 1 day.
