I’ve done several floors, mine, friends, family. Single garage, 2-car and 3-car. I agree with the prep being the most important and time consuming part. All of the floors are doing pretty well. Mine is the oldest 5 years, still looks great but I did notice some peeling in a few places. What I found was the material is not sufficient for the coverage and I had to buy additional material.

For those that don’t do it before each bag have to be apply or you have to paint the area in less that 45 min, I didn’t know that and I lose my money, as soon as you kid the two components I will start getting hot , if you don’t paint faster the blend will become a solid rock , so I live in houston Texas we are now at 110F , paint at night or early morning 5 / 7 am it will get hard a few more minutes like 1 hour , I do lost one bag not able to paint all the borders and the half of the garage , I do buy another whole kit I will paint the rest tomorrow at 5 am to make sure that I have no sun or hot at all and set a timer just in case

Im doing this now. I rented a sander with 36 grit pad for $50 from home depot. Not a grinder as those leave a cloud of dust. Also, waited 12 hours between scrubbing with degreaser and etching.

What I have a brand-new 20x20 concrete slab that my shed was put on? I assume I can just sweep it clean, maybe wash it down with a garden hose, but no need for a degreaser or anything else right? Also, what do you estimate the total time spent was for rolling it onto the floor once you started pouring it?

30 x 50 is 1500 square feet, it took me 2 - 2 car garage "Rocksolid" kits to barely get my 450 sq ft floor done, you would need 7 kits at >300$ a kit. I highly suggest you seek out some real epoxy that puts down a thicker coating, this stuff is very thin and covers 40% of what Rustoleum says it does.

Whats up man awesome video, I was wanting to put the clear coat Rocksolid on top however when I saw it was more expensive than the actual base coating I do not want to do it, kind of a three way question but my floor is a raw concrete, I am going to diamond grind it but do you think I need it is necessary to put primer and the top clear coating on after if I use the rocksolid product? Thank you

I'm not a pro. But I think the topcoat and clear would be good enough. Imo
@bailey9r
@bailey9r 7 ай бұрын
Put a clear coat of poly if it gets a lot of sun as epoxy "ambers" in the sun. Polyaspartic clear topcoat is UV protected and resistant to scratching. Sliding a cardboard box on shiny epoxy will dull it but the polyaspartic is softer and so more forgiving to abrasion. You asked a while ago but it's not too late if you already did it without the clearcoat just scruff it up a bit with 400 grit paper.

The floor is holding up great however there are a couple of little spots where the tires of my car after driving all day bubbled up. I think a thicker coat or prepping the floor by sanding it would prevent this. Overall I'm happy with the results

Stressing the prep aspect but yet you don’t prep the concrete for optimal adhesion? What’s the point of doing this if it’s going to have to be redone every few seasons? It’s just a base coat and a few stagnant chips. Looks alright for the first year (if hot tires don’t pick it up by then) and then it’s dull and gets dirty. It’s best to just leave the concrete how it is and deal with it until you can afford a proper coating using proper preparation. If you install this kit yourself, and decide you don’t like it, well now you have to spend a lot more money to get it removed and done right. I wouldn’t have a problem with this video if you didn’t say “doing it right for the first time”. Like come on man what a hack.

I do this every day and the only way to prep properly is to actually grind it. We fix floors done in this method constantly. There are hundreds of videos on how this is properly done, this just isn't one of them.
