Our Installation Process
We start by mechanically grinding the concrete floor to remove any old coatings, stains and dirt. Concrete grinding also helps us achieve the correct concrete profiling.
Once we finish grinding the floor, we move onto repairing any cracks, holes and hairlines. This step is important for the structural integrity of both the concrete floor and the metallic epoxy.
When the floor is fully repaired, we move onto applying the metallic floor system. We start by applying a self-leveling epoxy prime coat (moisture/dust barrier for fair-poor grade concrete). Base coat, 100% solids self-leveling two-component catalyzed clear epoxy incorporated with our metallic mica powder (pigment). After the pigment is mixed into both components, our team designs the floor using various application techniques. Highlights are added last to accentuate the body coat.
Once dried, the metallic epoxy may be screened or sanded with an orbital buffer to achieve a more level surface and improve adhesion. Finally, we seal and protect all our metallic floors with an industrial-grade urethane available in high gloss or matte finishes.
