Beginners to experienced epoxy specialists could pick up a few tips from the video.
Before you install your epoxy floor, you'll need to gather the necessary tools. These include concrete cleaner and degreaser, patching compound, paintbrush and tray, safety equipment, crack filler, and floor grinder. You can now start to prep the floor for application. This step includes cleaning the floor and filling in any cracks or damaged areas.
Next, you'll need to profile the surface. You'll use a shot blaster to achieve the perfect result. It allows the epoxy to adhere to the concrete floor. Use painter's tape to section off your area and sheeting to cover areas you don't want to paint.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mixing the epoxy and hardener. Use the correct ratio and mix thoroughly. You'll apply a base coat and a top coat. Each requires sufficient time to cure.
These steps provide a rough overview of the application of epoxy flooring. Prepare your tools, section off the area you'll paint, mix your product in the correct ratio, and apply the epoxy. When the top coat has cured, do a thorough inspection and touch-up.
