As a guy whose company does dozens of these every year, this crew did a beautiful job and paid excellent attention to detail. Excellent work

So as a company that does hundreds of installs a year.. the softness in the topcoat is NOT normal. That happens when polyaspartic is left too thick and it will not cure properly or possibly at all depending on the polyaspartic used.

Best video I have seen on coating the garage floor! Thanks for sharing.

The thick spots usually happen around the vertical walls as the polyaspartic is running down the vertical and pools on the edges if it was put on too thick. If they used a really high solids polyaspartic, 95-100 solids, it will dry eventually but if it was a polyaspartic lower than 85% it probably will not cure leaving it soft. Polyaspartic should be flexible but stiff, not soft where you can push into it.

Really nice job and video. Appreciate the way you do it and the crews seems like you told really carefulness.. big thumbs up

Great Video! Thanks for all the detail, very informative - agree its the best video I have seen on coating the garage floor!

Great editing Ben along with b roll stuff that shows some details. Nice work.

Great, unique topic B! Bet you this one does really well

Thanks for sharing this. I too have been looking into coating my garage. I have not heard of WISE and glad you recommend them. FYI...I live about a mile down the road from you.

Those guys did an amazing job! As you said, attention to detail, thoroughness, neat, etc. Maybe doing a video on them had something to do with all that, but even if the "normal" job gets half the attention, still so good. Very informative video to use as a comparison when shopping for an epoxy floor.

I own a company in the Midwest i do about 110 floors a year . I highly recommend downloading the tech data or pdf file before you start any coating project

This is my DREAM!!!! As a Man, the garage has become my sanctuary…..and I want floors like this! $3,600 isn’t that bad, compared to dull traditional plane concrete floors lol. I love it! I fell in love with those type of floors after I saw Jimmy Chang (Freshly Charged) get his done about a year or so ago. 600 sq ft - 3 car garage is also a DREAM as well!!! 😍🥰😍🥰

Love how it turned out.

I have a split level home so the garage is technically in the house. When I bought it the garage floor was terrible and had oil and everything else embedded. I fabricate, weld, grind, and spend a lot of time in the garage myself, so explored coatings for a long time. The internet commandos swear that poly coatings are terrible and their "friends" that do professional work would NEVER use it over epoxy. I had much different experiences actually speaking with professional coating companies. My garage floor is almost identical to yours and I've had it for several years. I used to be extremely careful avoiding grinder sparks, welding, etc., but after a couple years kinda stopped. I have dropped several very heavy pointy objects on it and it just dents-- never cracks. Overall, I am glad I chose the poly for my garage/workshop and didn't listen to the internet. Good chip color choice on yours-- EXCEPT if you drop a small stainless or black screw! Now THAT can be terrible-- ask me how I know.

THAT is not a bad price at all. For all that work!

Wow they did a beautiful job!

Thanks so much for this video. Seeing the whole process makes trying to make a decision much more manageable. Do you remember the name of the flake you chose?

Great Informational Video. I think you did right thing to go with pro as it will be cheapest for longer time after all.. The price sounds high but after see so much work done and time spent the price is pretty good deal as long as you need it.

Thanks for sharing. I am wondering though, what did they use to fill in the cracks?

Great job 👏

Looks awesome

I wish i had an update on how the floor is turning out. My personal experience epoxy is a better primer to concrete, but polyaspartic is good against UV rays. But on a full epoxy system, they are highly recommended to finish with a polyurethane with a UV blocker as a final coat, or a polyaspartic. Never use epoxy as a final coating, they will scratch and yellow.

I’ve been wanting this done myself, but I need furniture more lol

Theres also a massive difference from your big box stores epoxy, and 100% epoxy solids (contractors can only purchase). Big box stores fail and flake often

Turned out great! Did this company charge a deposit before putting down a floor like this?

Fully hard takes 7 days and if this floor stays gummy that’s mean wrong measuring when they did the mixing

Love the beautiful insta shots ❤

What about urethane vs. polyaspartic?

Name of the liquid for the cracks

How much was the final cost Ben?

Had this done recently, exact same process and product, 2 guys completed it in half a day, should I be concerned because allot of these videos are showing multiple day process

Waiting for the Osmo Pocket 3 Review

Soft top coat? Not acceptable. Like you showed with the screw driver, it’ll ding and scratch so I don’t know what you’re talking about the durability

I just watched your gopro comparison video and the moment I saw all the ryobi stuff in the garage I immediately thought "this guy is definitely mormon". Am I correct?

That softness is not normal. This is because they mixed it incorrectly.

What was the total cost and how many square feet

At 20:14 to 20:16 it looks like the clear coat puddled up. Very heavy clear coat.

This takes us 1 day to do

Good❤❤🎉

I own a epoxy company and this is very horrible workmanship. Unfortunately for you as the customer, you trust what they as the company tells you. I always tell people to not go the franchise route. This is why. Junk materials, sloppy work! First of all, the stem walls, you can see the base coat between the valleys or the flake. Not a good look. Needs a double broadcast. 2nd is the floor like the stem walls again, you can see the basecoat. Not enough body in the basecoat to hold sufficiently. Will it cause issues down the road? No, not necessarily being a garage. But again, not a great look. 3rd is at towards the end of the video, the walls look very thin with hardly any top coat. Then all along the edge is a lake where it’s extremely thick. - too thick for poly. Will not cure fully. Polyaspartics are flexible in nature but they are designed as when you drop something or push into it like you are in the video, the indent you make comes back to an extent. I guarantee I could peel that entire heavy area up with a putty knife. - it did not cure properly. 4th is the horrible job they did on your front lip and edge! The poly leaked under the tape and made a mess. There are much better ways to completely eliminate and create a perfect edge. I absolutely hate that you didn’t get the job you deserve.

Why didn’t they do the step. It looks so weird and out of place

Your epoxy statement is flawed. Epoxy under particles will not be seen, then a poly coat on top. Takes an extra day.

Bro.... That gaps can get dirty.

I'll pass on the DIY route.

$3200 for my 1 car 😮

Eww Ryobi

You lost me at all the Ryobi “tools”.

No thanks

you have all those tools but can't work on something so simple.

No DJI pocket 3 ?
