Preparation & Grinding
To provide you with the best quality floor coating, we need to prepare it properly. The preparation process includes clearing your space and cleaning away any dust and grime. Once we’ve prepped the space, we’ll use either shot-blasting or diamond grinding to grind your floor down. Sometimes, we’ll do both; it just depends on your specific needs. We hook our grinders up to vacuum systems to minimize the amount of dust the process leaves in the area.
Concrete Restoration
While floor coatings improve the look of your floor, a coating applied to a floor that’s covered in cracks and pits simply won’t look as good and will end up damaged, too. After preparing and grinding the surface, we’ll restore your concrete by filling in any cracks and pits so that the floor coating is smooth and stunning.
Base Coat & Chip
This is the step where we’ll mix your base coat and then apply it to your floors. This is also where we’ll apply the chips and flakes that give color, texture, durability and slip resistance to your floors. These are broadcasted by hand and can be customized so that your floor looks the way you want it to.
Setup Time
Depending on your specific project, the time it takes to set up following the application of the base coat can vary. In general, set-up takes approximately 1-2 hours.
Scraping Floor
After we’re set up your floor coating and it’s dried, we’ll scrape the floor’s surface and vacuum to smooth it out and remove any loose flakes.
Polyaspartic Clear Coat Top Coat
Finally, after everything else has been completed, we’ll apply the polyaspartic clear top coat to your floor coating. This final step is what ensures that your final floors are UV stable and damage resistant. It keeps your floors protected and ensures that they last for a lifetime.
Our floor coatings cure within 24 hours, so once we’ve completed our work, you can get back to using your garage in hardly any time at all!
