Garage Floor Epoxy


Extra heavy duty long life garage floor epoxy

Our Garage Floor Epoxy is unlike store bought off the shelf type epoxies. Retail grade epoxies are typically water based, very thin single coats, do not have a urethane fortified epoxy topcoat and have a high abrasion loss rating. This more often than not results in a poor finish and your tires peeling up the coating in short order. When going through the trouble and expense of applying a garage floor epoxy coating you want it to not only stay stuck to your floor you want a coating that will have a long lasting new look to it.

What is a topcoat and what is an abrasion loss rating? A topcoat is the final coating that you apply over the epoxy to protect it and the color flakes if you are using them. A topcoat is much different than the base epoxy coating. It should have urethane in it for UV protection and to add hardness for abrasion resistance. The abrasion loss rating is obtained via the industry standard Taber C-17 abrasion test. This is simply a weighted grinding wheel run over the coating for a specific amount of time and the amount of epoxy that is removed is measured. With the lower the amount removed representing a higher resistance to abrasion. Retail grade garage epoxies have an abrasion loss rating of 25 and much higher. Coatings with these poor types of abrasion resistance ratings offer little in tire or small wheel scratch and abrasion wear protect. So you may find and apply an epoxy that will not fail due to hot tire pickup but the nice high gloss finish will soon be worn away. epoxy-flooring

Don’t be fooled by topcoats that are really just clear epoxies with some UV additives. These are just a waste of your time and money they offer zero additional wear protection.
