Mechanicsburg Garage Gets a Complete Makeover
This residential garage floor was coated with our epoxy/polyaspartic system as part of a complete garage makeover. Our coatings process required two days to complete. The following day, the garage floor coating system was ready for the cabinetry and wall organizers to be installed by another central Pennsylvania company.
This decorative chip, epoxy floor coating is comprised of:
- Base coat: 100% solids, pigmented epoxy with full broadcast of our Adams chip blend.
- Top coat: Clear polyaspartic.
- System color: Adams 1/4'' decorative chip flakes.
The advantages of a polyaspartic top coat are:
- Resistance to road salt, gasoline and oil.
- Strong resistance to the wear and tear of automobile wheels and road grime.
- Excellent resistance to ambering or dulling.
On day one, our two man team prepared the concrete floor surface by mechanically diamond grinding the entire surface. All edges were ground using seven inch hand grinders. The entire surface was vacuumed clean, then the base layer of epoxy was applied. The medium gray, 100% solids epoxy was evenly applied to the entire surface and the decorative, acrylic chips applied to refusal.
On day two, our crew scraped and removed all excess, loose chips from the surface. After vacuuming the entire surface, the clear, high solids polyaspartic coating was applied. An aluminum oxide was then broadcast and back-rolled into the clear coat. The addition of this material aids in slip resistance and increases the longevity of the clear coating.
