      The problem with the DIY kits is that they include half the amount used in a professional kit. Plus, they are water-based. So when the water evaporates, you have a surface that's only .25% as thick as a professional kit. That's a fact that they don't explain with those DIY kits. If you want a flake kit, the DIY kit only has 10lbs or so of flake, and a pro kit is 50-100lbs up to 200lbs of flake depending on the Mfg etc.

    You just showed how important preparation is for proper adhesion and longevity. You cant stress that enough. I am a bit surprised you used a small hand grinder for such a large area. I have done 2 floor coatings now and both times I rented what looks like a floor buffer with a grinding disc attachment. The grinding disc looks similar to the one on your grinder only larger. I can grind a 1.5 car garage floor in under 1 hour. No need to be crouched down and leaning over. But I do like that wheeled contraption you used. And the floor turned out beautiful. Thanks for the video.

    Back in the late 70’s I worked for a commercial flooring company in Michigan for about 5 years that did an enormous amount of this kind of commercial/industrial flooring mostly in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms in large high rise buildings, fire department equipment areas.
    For most large areas we mostly used a walk behind scarfire machines, small rooms and inside corners just like you did we used a cabled grinder. One thing we did in like boiler rooms is we flashed the transition between the wall and floor with like a 1” wide 45 degree angle haunch as a seal for moisture.
    I really like the strip you used on the wall… never saw that before. Great video.

    With over 30 years supervision as a site manager in Australia building clean rooms, laboratories, food processing rooms and abattoirs I have seen many different types of epoxy floors from flake types in laboratories, 6mm high build in clean rooms were finish epoxy was rolled using rake rollers to remove air pockets ,2mm-3mm layers of epoxy paints or 10mm shureshield using multiple sizes of sand and epoxy mix and trowelled on, used mainly to floors were different types of acids and alkaline that can attack the concrete floor to high wear areas ie abattoirs floors were we start with the concrete using 40mpa (I think 7000+psi) strength adding Caltite water proofing to the concrete mix (double the cost of the concrete) then finishing with 3mm-4mm epoxy chips trowelled into the top of the concrete and finished with trowelling machine 3 to 4 times this becomes a hard wearing floor One of the problems we had in high wear areas using epoxy roller types finishes were forklifts would drop there tynes on the epoxy which would break up the epoxy like ( pothole in a road) water would get under the epoxy the forks would push the water like a wedge and the epoxy would come up in sheets The way we did expansion joints was clean the inside edges of the joint with a saw fill the joint with a stiff sand epoxy mix do the floor finish then cut the joint install a backing rod and finish with a good quality joint filler The correct way to do an expansion if the gap is 10mm wide the backing rod is down 10mm making the bottom of the sealant concave up and the top of the joint will concave down this means that in the middle is the thin part of the sealant this allows the joint to stretch without breaking away from the edges

    When my parents had their house built in 1973, they made certain that the foundation where the garage door touches down and outward was 1 inch below the garage floor. Then when the driveway was poured they made certain that it started 1 inch below where the garage door touches. That way there is a 2 inch drop in 2 parts from the garage floor to the driveway. Then the driveway has an 8 inch drop from the garage to the end of the driveway. Water has never gotten past the garage door to the garage floor.

However it isn’t cheap and looks very similar to the cheap products most people have seen and used and have had problems with and some people have a hard time believing how much better this polyaspartic is. Ive done garages, shops, locker rooms, concrete floors in buildings, and lots of custom inlay designs from school logo, business logos, car brand logos and patterns. But that was a long time ago and idk how much it has changed the industry tho. Good luck with it and carry on man.

    I used a dual component Polyaspartic coating on garage floors for a number of years and found that even if you mixed partial amounts and resealed the cans, the cans could only be opened one more time because the tops would seal to the can and you would have to cut the lids open. It worked well as a sealer but you needed to wear a respirator during mixing and application. And if the cottonwood was blowing ... not fun. If your tires are hot leave the car outside until they cool before parking inside the garage.

    1:04:11 What you also can't see are the small Al2O3 particulate it leaves in the air for you to breathe. You should REALLY use a half face mask while spreading this out. With that said, WOW, what an amazing job you've done with that garage floor. Small details like getting close up to the drains and such all add up to make the overall result that much more appealing. The finish looks absolutely flawless and most importantly, when prepped correctly, will last decades. I can tell you've done a boatload of these because your technique is on point. Great puddle/film management, excellent timing, correct tools and handling, as well as great planning and keeping tidy and positioning everything so as to not impede your work/help you do it more easily. You've optimized the process which makes it easier and faster to do (and lets you get away with things like applying in sections with direct sunlight). Kudos! If I didn't have a tiled garage/driveway/etc, I'd love to get this done.

    We had this same flooring, same color professionally installed in our 4 car garage. We love it. I researched cootings in detail before deciding on this, plus it came with a 10 year warranty against cracking or peeling. 2 things I didn't see mentioned (I did skip through the vid). Cracks/divots. Grind them down then fill with a concrete epoxy, then sand down level. The second thing is smell. Our's has a very nice faint chocolate smell...even after a year. We love the coating. Standus up to our large trucks, zero-turns, and is easy to clean. Oil and grease wipe right off. We sweep as needed and every now and then I run a mop over it. It is more expensive, but well worth it if you research it in comparison to standard epoxy flooring. Don't be fooled by the colors and ease to put on....epoxy doesn't last if you drive vehicles over it.

    I am curious if the 2 products you used on your garage floor had bad fumes associated with them. My experience with epoxy products is that they have warnings not to breathe in the vapors. You did an expert job on the floor and the results were great. I do have a catalog from Concrete Floor Solutions myself. So many products to fix just about any problem on a concrete floor but also a bit expensive so be prepared for that.

      We have the same system in our 4 car garage. I don't know if is the same prep liquid used prior to the flakes, but our entire garage has a faint chocolate smell now...and you can still smell it a year later. Smells great!

    i think if you pulled the bottom sections of the garage door rails off it would be really clean look. I had very rusty bottoms on my door rails so i removed them and cut off about a 1/4" inch, painted them and left them of when they coated my floor. So now they sit above the floor with less of a chance of water wicking up the rails like before.

    I'd really like to do that in my garage. The main thing I am not sure about is what I should use to prep the floor. It was previous painted but it is very thin and flaking/peeling off. I'm good using buffers and wood floor sanders so I think I can handle whatever I need to use if I can just figure out what that is and where to get it.

      Here is a link to our floor kits:concretefloorsolutions.com/product-category/epoxy-floor-kits/
      Prep work is the most important part. You must achieve a clean scratched concrete surface or NO material will bond properly.
      You can rent a walk behind grinder from your local rental company, or use a hand grinder like I did in this video. All of our floor kits ship for free and we are here to answer any questions you may have 610-972-5247 Jason.

    • @ConcreteFloorSolutions
      @ConcreteFloorSolutions  Рік тому

      I agree, sometimes you should sand the surface. A lot depends on the viscosity of your topcoat. The thicker the material, the more it covers up sharp edges. This particular CFS-1C polyaspartic covers the sharp edges very well.

    That floor coating has been around for decades. I remember it being on floors in the 1960, and it may have been around before that. It fell into disuse because it is very slippery and a lot of people have fell while walking on it.

    Good job, perfect explanation of the process and dangers to look out for.
    I've seen these flake floors and they generally suck as far as looks. Not enough flake and a base color that clashes with the flake colors. Going full cover flake and a complementary base color is far better looking. I.d even go so far as saying Very good looking. That said, try sanding the top cote to almost smooth. The flakes would change their look being less like paint chips. They would blend 1/2 the edges of the chips feathering out the sharp chips corners. Look at the sanded side of OSB plywood compared to the wood chip side. It will give you an idea of the blended feather edge flakes should looks like.

    • @ConcreteFloorSolutions
      @ConcreteFloorSolutions  Рік тому +1

      I do agree with what you're saying. I do recommend in gymnasiums and floors where children or people are crawling on them to screen sand the flakes before applying a topcoat. Otherwise I personally like some texture in the garage so it's not slippery when it's wet.
      I appreciate your input, thanks for watching
