wow. that must be the ugliest floor I have ever seen in my life... is this a new trend?
MuddahFukkah I thought it was still concrete
Paddy Mack Now now boys.... Oh! My bad. That’s the actual name? 😂🤣
Lmao literally. My man just made a big ass mess and called it epoxy
Yea it does look a bit crappy, would be better just that solid color.
@@L701_TBgot to see them in person and dry.. they look bad till they flatten out n dry
A long and complicated way to reach a high quality mess.
Not my cup of tea.
Looks like a marble floor to me
yeah, honestly it looks cool and looks like complete shit at the same time. i dont know what to really think about it.
@@nicg1345 i feel you
would look good in a garage, that's about it
@@nicg1345 for customer that comes for a couple hours every two months its cool :) for staff who needs to look at it for eight hours every day its shit :)
Jeez people can be so negative. Those are the people who like shag carpet for their flooring I guess. End result looks great and contemporary. Love it!
Yes people can be, thanks for your comment and for watching the video
I really loved how it ended up. Looks amazing
I would love my floor to do in gold and cream
I love the way it looks. I am thinking about doing this in my house. All you have to do is throw some rugs down as they did.
Right? Like who would want carpet in there office where people want in and out all week. Epoxy is perfect for commercial, and residential it just depends on the home owner who by all means can do whatever they want with there floor ugly or not.
Great job.
Don’t understand why the commode isn’t removed to apply epoxy under the bowl.
Why, are you going to be able to see it?
I actualy really liked it until that last bright blue-ish layer. I think the darker, more shinier tone looks much better.
EXACTLY !I agree !I feel they ruined it by doing that!
i feel bad for the people that paid for this and got ripped off, i was sitting here watching this saying to myself that I cant wait to see what kind of base boards youre going to use to cover up the gap from the old ones. Sure enough you used the cheapest stick on plastic baseboard you could find, in some places its not even flush with the wall. Would love to see how much its going to cost the owner to remove this crap and put down proper flooring.
And also imagine what would happen when someone tries to move the table, which they elegantly sunk in epoxy:))))
I'm sorry but this floor looks awful..
It reminds me of a painters workshop floor...looks like a total mess and nothing like rock or marble
Most often I like the design, but you must have color blind people choosing the colors 😉
How many types of epoxy flooring ? Do you have in India work possible or guide us
I like it because
1-repairs my floor
2-looks great
3-I can put another floor right on top when i get tired of it :)
Getting rid of that must be so difficult, do you need one of those road breaking tools to break it up?
Depending on the thickness of the floor either got a grind it or scarify it shop Blaster won't take that stuff off
I am not sure this is for me. Looks a bit of a mess. I do appreciate the instruction.
This particular job looked like spilled white paint that didn’t get cleaned up in time.
You manage the work so smoothly. you're extremely experienced.thanks for your best ideas.
Thanks for clarification of how to doit.
Relative to final product, It was too much white. Like a big confusion.
Technically interesting. Good explainer.
But! Ugly!
And removing two bolts holding down the toilet was too much work? Really guys, it’s easy and you’ll work faster and the result 100% better.
It’s like painters who don’t remove cover plates off switches and outlets. Yep, you’ve all seen that kind of crappy work.
my exact thoughts
I had my doubts but it ended up looking great. Keep up the good work!
This could legitimately be a joke. Not only was the process completely ridiculous but the result was so awful looking. I feel like this is a joke.
Truly an eyesore. But they weren’t even aware how ugly it was. I pity the clients. They’re probably looking for someone else to put in a laminate floor to hide this mess!
Don't know what some of you are talking about - the floor has the effect of a stormy water with a lot of foam and bubbles as it should be. Really nice work I have never and most likely will never do a epoxy floor but I really like these kind of videos!
Too expensive
Great explaining, but I can't stand this look though, uhhh, it is ugly.
Thank you for watching! Check out other flooring we've done here! 👉 ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=Leggari+epoxy+and+hardwood+flooring
4,536.20 for 1000sq ft that's 4.53 a sq ft. Mmm. Too expensive for the final results.
thats pretty cheap tbh
I charge 15 a sq min
That’s really cheap we charge $8 a ft here in Texas. Materials alone are outrageous.
if you make the paint can of part A slightly larger, part B fits in with it. then you do not need an extra bucket. if you put part B in a bottle then you do not need a special scraper. and if you take paint cans without a border you can easily take out all your paint.
? ? ?
i am intrested in using your product on my kitchen and dinning area how can i get a color chart so the wife and i can choose the colors that we want. would also like a price list for all products and supplies.thank you . you guys do a awsome job explaining how its done .really appricate the infomation.
Where can I buy this product in Israel. I am a contract in Israel.
My clients would love it.
Let’s try gold plated feathers just laid in black and gold Epoxy well black background with gold glitter then real gold plated feathers or painted feathers and clear Epoxy
Leaves
I never new what that was.. Im gona do my whole house with that stuff..lol
I really love the creativity, how long can it last?
Good luck ever getting the toilet back up you should’ve just did it up about an inch or so from the flange. Plus now you have to use that shape toilet because the floor is going to be a little unlevel it’s gonna be higher in that shape still cool video but if you’re gonna do that much prep work why not do it 100%
And yes people I do have the right to say something because I actually built cool shit also for a living and this is a really cool video not putting you down in anyway just was asking sorry I have a bad habit of that I have to pick my guys all the time that’s why it’s all in the details stay blessed my friends
Also never let something get dryer than sticky you always wanna apply the next coat before it’s not sticky anymore you run the risk of trapping air in between the layers just a little trick It may not crack right away but it will trust me it’s just a bomb waiting to happen on a beautiful paint job or floor
But still very bad ass myfriend I will be using soon! Thank you.
This could look good in one single colour. To me this "faux marble" look is indeed a bit too faux. I find this an interesting product though and I have a couple of questions:
- Is it possible to create a hard line in between two solid colours (black and white for instance) instead of having them flow into each other?
- Is it possible to make it look like a tiled floor?
- Can it be used in combination with in-floor heating/cooling? What are the thermo-physical properties like R-value or lambda-value?
- Would it be possible to use this on the risers (vertical plane) of a staircase, to create a continuous, flowing staircase where tread and riser become one element?
- If used for a counter-top is it possible to create a drip, or rather anti-drip, edge?
- Is this available in or do you ship to Europe?
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me
@Holden Kylo Instablaster ;)
@Ruben Vivaan Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im trying it out atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Ruben Vivaan it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account!
@Holden Kylo You are welcome :)
The marbling effect is pretty sweet. I like this.
I love the look. I’m ordering for my garage floor.
Well explained and demonstrated but I am not sure if I love or hate the look.
I've seen some of these epoxy videos where the process looks super messy but then the end result looks like a beautiful organic masterpiece... this isn't one of those videos, that end result looks terrible.. Lol.
Thanks for the wonderful comment and for watching the video
agreed, those colors clashed so hard with everything else in the room and are painful to look at
Looks like paint spillage and gypsum stains.. Really messy look
Thanks for watching the video
Pro Tip, get an alright paint brush for cutting in the edges. Cheap paint brushes are the worst. It doesn't have to be super expensive but a decent paint brush will make your work easier.
Wat type of flooring can u go over with this epoxy??
The project looks great. I've always been a big fan of epoxy floors. Me and my grandfather did his basement back in the day. The color isn't my preference but that's subjective of course.
Exactly, but i guess that was the art behind it
I love that you were grandpas buddy 🥰🥰🥰
Doesn't look like natural veins in stone...…. Looks too distracting and actually NOT pleasing... Oh, that music that's played on ALL the videos is another distracting factor....... Lose THAT music...
Lots of people don’t like this video or the results, or the time commitment, etc... that’s okay... it’s their opinion. I myself don’t care for the process or end result either, but it’s still a very informative and comprehensive instructional video.
Everyone needs to understand that just because someone doesn’t agree with another person, it doesn’t mean that either one hates the other ... we can agree to disagree and move past!
Aesthetic considerations aside, the explanation of the techniques, planning and job sequencing are really excellent - thank you!
Thank you for watching the video
What do you guys have against solid colors? Why are you always adding lines and spots and s**t?
Dear Leggari team, can you please explain what is actually the last coat.
The effect that you have made, what matterial did you use and mix up, to getnit more white than it was. I mean is it also some type of epoxy? Or some other type of material?
I mean the satin white effect in the end, can you please reply back, thanks in advance
I think the effect y’all were going for should be in the title or the description or as a pinned comment. Was this supposed to be an Ariel shot of the sea/ ocean near Martha’s Vineyard or something specific like that? Because it almost looks like sea water but....the grey is ..unexpected. And this doesn’t appear to be marble so..the confusion is probably why most viewers are ..a tad unfriendly in the comments. 🤓
Hello,question for you.
If i want to do an epoxy floor in to walking shower,how do i mantain a slope since the epoxy is self leveling??
Great. Now i'll never know if my home is clean or not.
And neither will your guests so no worries on having to clean or not 😆
wish I could pay for such beautyfull floors thank you
After all the negative replies I don't understand what you do proudly are showing it work. I have seen other epoxy gobs and they are out of these world. What about the vein that you kept saying do these and you'll get a nice outcome. Please do something else cause that is a waste of money and time.
That has to be the ugliest epoxy job I have ever seen, I can't believe someone paid good money for it.
Ok so i read the comments first that seemed negative. I kept an open mind thinking it would look great. I think using the squeegee was a mistake. It really does look awful like a construction mess. I was waiting for it to look better when it was finished but it didn’t get much better. I think the roller would have worked better for the white and do a lot less of the white as well.
The purring music culturally tow because sister typically gather up a obnoxious fiction. valuable, slimy hubcap
How come you didn't apply a clear coat of epoxy before the Matt finish. Wouldn't that have made it look better, or not?
May I ask a question? How many square meters is the area of this shop that you worked in?? PLEASE
Does it have sealing properties? And is it chemical resistant?
Why do you keep putting this matt finish on everything?? I get its a preference but gloss is a much more glamourous finish.
Is the silver epoxy still wet when you add the highlights? And is the highlight paint the same type of epoxy? Thanks.
How much would it cost to finish a 1000 sq ft. Basement concrete floor. It is wide open except where the bathroom and bar area
I just poured a concrete slab for my new house. How long do I need to wait for the concrete to cure and dry before I can apply an epoxy floor?
I think the floor would have looked awesome if you made the floor look like some of your counter tops. If you do floors is there consideration to make them less slippery?
Здравствуйте! Скажите, можно ли использовать вместо праймера эпоксидную смолу? Спасибо!
i m from UAE ,i would like to get training and start the work here. could you please assist me thank s
I would liked it better with 75% less white.
Very nice good lulk ...
For my taste,the white veins just made a mess. It's OK for someone else to like it but I don't have to.

how much to charge for this?$$$$$$$$$
I have a 2 car garage in south Florida, they wanted me to pay 4k just to give you an idea. I’m not sure about a commercial building/office.
If you visit my country all people will be want you to work on it. Full work.... Think about it
So if you use a metallic white the dispersing affect or the celling goes back to normal?
can't beleve the they just mess it up .. with those sheap as base boards 😕 i bet will look better
Thanks for watching the video Felo
The reason this floor looks terrible is the wall color is wrong for it. Repaint the wall, the floor might look fine.
Screw the highlights, the silver alone is awesome.
Some customers go with just the base color and it looks amazing.
@@LeggariProducts Why would you not take the shitter out???
stone man They prepped it and we showed up to coat. We told them it will look better if they did but they did not want to. It’s a non profit
Can the product used on natural marble to create new marble floor which is stain resistant and easy to clean?
How come I keep getting comets in my floors? They look like scratches?
En español x favor el nombre del material que se utilizó para darle el tono mate, Thanks.
Looks like the painters did not use drop cloths and tried to clean up their mess with dry rags...
I want to knoe how many epoxi resin you need for end this quantity of feet snd how many feet yoyu covered with this resin
I would put small white shaggy carpets out. Most of the floor has to show. The walls must be white too
Look terrible
can i hire u guys to do my kitchen counter top in shower fire place in my floors please let me know
I love the epoxy resin bench tops and floors. I want to do this. Can I put down a epoxy floor on a timber floor ??
“Prep replacement primer” more like “shit floor that won’t last like the normal prep primer”
You really confused me when you walked over the epoxy and didn't leave shoe marks haha, nice work too
That is because he is wearing spiked shoes so he doesn't track the epoxy everywhere.
@@LeggariProducts I was just about to ask ho you were doing that?? Whart are these spikes called? Les
Beautiful job, amazing piece of art
You guys seem to be sloppy tracking the floor wild working .
Taylor just blue tape that base boards....next time. don't listen boss guy..
Too much highlights for my taste. I would have used maybe half that
I'm just curious why you chose to roll out the matte finish coat instead of using a notch squeegee. I'm not second guessing or Monday Morning QB'ing. just curious. Wouldn't a notch squeegee give the uniform thickness and then back roll it to smooth it out? IDK,....just an old guy watching videos. LOL
Hello! Our WB Urethane isn't designed to go on very thick. Our notched squeegee spreads the base coat of epoxy at the right thickness it needs to be to completely cover the substrate but the topcoat does not need to be that thick to be effective 👍 Check it out here if you'd like! 👇
leggari.com/product/wb-urethane-floor/
No am not negative we have different opinions keep yours to your self.
You should spread white color MORE it looks not Right...
Looks great! I just dont know why you wouldn't pull the toilet? Now if someone were to damage and or want to replace is the would have to find the exact same one.
Not sure why the didn't pull the toilet, thanks for watching the video
For me. This looks like a 50 years old style of "design". But someone should like it.
why did he not pull the toilet?. The next toilet may not be the same template on the floor.
if that's your finished product I'll pass.. ugly.
Anyone know what those "Spiked" shoe covers are called?
I too noticed how there were no footprints when you were stepping on it while applying. Why is that? It would get kind of hard not to step on it while doing it all at one time. Love how this style looks on counters and floors. If in the garage how would it hold up with say gas oils etc getting spilled on it?
He is wearing spiked shoes so he does not track the epoxy everywhere. Our epoxy is 100% solid resin and cleans up very easy and can withstand oil, gas, etc.
@@LeggariProducts Do you sell these spiked shoes on your website?
they do i jus got my kit i may do a tutorial @@chelsearobbins7868
No suelo hacer comentarios.... Orrible.... Buff que cosa mas fea
I have worked in construction my hole life no way would I attempt this.i can see so much that can go wrong I'm going to have this done in my garage and will hire a professional 😋
You got to remember, you have plenty of time on your hands to apply this. Try it, play with it.
Garage would be the best place to give it a try it’s actually a lot easier than you think. Prep can be the most labor intensive depending on the shape your concrete is in.
im confused does this replace the process of grinding? no one got in to depth on it. And was the base coat hardened already it looked like the grey was already dry. how long is the window with the base coat being on the floor.that you can throw another color in it.
Hello! In the case of this project, we did not shotblast the existing substrate like we would normally recommend but we did grind it lightly so a bond could be created between the substrate and our prep replacement primer. Learn more about this product here 👉 leggari.com/product/prep-replacement/. In some cases, our Prep Replacement is all you need to prep the floor well enough. And no, the base coat is not hardened when we add the highlights. It needs to be fluid to be able to blend the highlights. You have some time but simply want to get the highlights down and blended as quickly as possible for the best results. You can learn more about all of these products and floor kits here! 👉 leggari.com/order-flooring/#metallic-epoxy-kits Our youtube channel has many other epoxy floor videos that go more into depth
I'm from Philippines . Where can I buy those Epoxy flooring products? Thank you for responding.
You can find Leggari Products here and see if we ship to you! 👉 leggari.com
That's one ugly floor. -QMFT
Did the client sign off on that mess? Parts of it look cool, but overall crappy job. I can see squeegee marks, globs of white. It is a mess. I would not have paid you for that job.
You wouldn’t have wanted the floor like this in the first place so of course you aren’t gonna pay. Stupid
So why polyurethane top coat instead of polyaspartic top coat?
Brother there is mosture in our walls.this main problim in our side
