Top Coat
Epoxy / PolyasparticThe "shield" layer. Epoxy top coat offers thickness and best value for indoor floors, while Polyaspartic delivers rapid 1-day turnaround, extreme chemical resistance, and zero UV yellowing.
Flakes
Full BroadcastIndustrial-grade color chips broadcasted into the wet base coat. Provides customizable styles, hides concrete imperfections, and adds slip-resistance.
Base Coat
Clear Moisture BarrierThe foundation of your floor. This deep-penetrating primer secures a tenacious bond to the concrete substrate and blocks moisture vapor transmission.
Concrete
SubstrateMechanically profiled (ground) concrete to expose pores. Without proper prep here, even the most expensive epoxy systems will ultimately fail.
Professional Floor Coating Tools
Industrial-grade spikes, rollers, and mixing accessories designed for flawless application.
Choose Your Floor System
Use this technical guide to select a complete coating architecture based on your timeline, budget, and environmental conditions.
Standard Performance
Garage / Basement / Light CommercialPrimer improves bonding; epoxy builds thickness; polyaspartic delivers faster return-to-service and superior UV stability.
Economy Build
Minimal Sun Exposure / Flexible TimelineA classic, highly cost-effective 2-coat epoxy floor system engineered for indoor environments without direct UV exposure.
Full Broadcast Flake
High Traffic / Slip-ResistantBroadcast flakes into the wet epoxy coat, then seal with clear polyaspartic for extreme durability and effortless cleaning.
Rapid RTS (Return-to-Service)
Workshops / Storefronts / High UVPolyaspartic dominates when projects demand ultra-fast curing times (1-day install) and zero UV yellowing over time.
Professional Grade.
Priced for the Pro.
Engineered for high-traffic garages, warehouses, and commercial floors. Secure your margins with our complete line of primers, build epoxies, and rapid-cure polyaspartics.
Step-by-Step Guide
This is a high-level workflow for planning your epoxy flooring project. Exact instructions must follow each product label/TDS and your jobsite conditions.
Evaluate the slab
Check for moisture/vapor issues, old sealers, oil contamination, spalling, and cracks. Fix what must be fixed before you coat.
Prep the concrete
Degrease, remove weak material and existing coatings, then mechanically grind to expose clean, porous concrete. Vacuum dust thoroughly.
Mask and plan your pour
Tape edges, protect walls/doors, and stage tools. Plan your mix batches based on pot life so you can keep a wet edge and avoid lap lines.
Apply Epoxy Primer
Prime the slab to improve bonding and help your system build evenly. Apply at the recommended rate and respect the recoat window so the next layer bonds properly.
Apply your build coat
Apply your epoxy coat evenly and back-roll for uniform thickness and appearance. Work in manageable sections and maintain a consistent roller pattern.
Broadcast flakes (optional)
While the coat is still wet and within working time, broadcast flakes to the coverage level you want. Spiked shoes help you move through wet coating safely.
Seal with your topcoat
Finish with either Epoxy Top Coat or Polyaspartic Top Coat. Apply within the correct recoat window for best intercoat bonding.
Cure and return to service
Allow proper cure before foot traffic, vehicle traffic, and heavy loads. Temperature and humidity can change cure speed—follow the product guidance.
Note: For the best performance, the concrete surface should be clean and structurally stable, with a minimum tensile strength of 150 psi (per ASTM C1583). The substrate should have a moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) of up to 25 lbs per 1,000 sq. ft. per 24 hours (11.3 kg per 92.9 m²). Most epoxy floor failures come from surface prep and moisture. If unsure, test before you buy.
