The whole process took about 48 hours total.
Steps: (Not set in stone just a quick guide)
1. CLEAN!
2. Clean AGAIN LOL
3. Let Dry
4. Apply Epoxy Coat (flakes were a pain in the butt lol)
5. Wait 24 hours minimum for it to cure
6. Apply clear coat (not required)
The clear coat was dry in 2 hours and ready for the second coat. This process is time consuming but it's all in the prep work. All products were bought at home-depot!

love what you did with the floor great job !!! Big question is how about traction, slipping etc. would you recommend or did you add any traction sand to final clear coat. The reason I ask is from personal experience falling on a slick beautiful floor such as yours. Love the look just need a little grip is all. Let me me know thank you.

To get a much more uniform coverage of flakes than @12:53 you can make a cheap flake shaker by drilling some holes in a plastic container, putting flakes in, then shaking them out. They disperse much more evenly than by hand.
@randymcmanus8691
@randymcmanus8691 2 жыл бұрын
Yes I agree for a more uniform flake dispersement I use a hand held seed/ fertilizer spreader $9 at Home Depot instead of randomly throwing handfuls of flakes out where you get heavy flakes in some areas and light flakes in others it gives a more uniform look before sealing with clear top coat.

Will the concrete sealer soak into a epoxy floor ? Think that’s the wrong product needed. Or maybe the epoxy coat is more absorbent than I thought.

Man, thank YOU very much for this video! I have seem several videos about this product but definitely you nail it using 2 gallons of clear coat on top of it. That's the legit trick to make it look awesome and make it last for years! I never thought about the clear and seriously by far this is the best video about this Rust Oleum epoxy. Thanks Again because today I just purchase mine (I have to wait til mid Spring. I'm in Virginia) and I want to plan everything to achieve your same result. Looks neat and clean!

We just did it today (Spring was kind of cold) Outside temp between 75 - 80, prior days high 87 low 69 and humidity between 55% and 75% in the last 3 days as well. Now we are aiming for the the clear coat but I do have a couple questions. You said you did two coats of clear... How many can you used for two coats? And... How did you wait between coats of clear? Last question, how is holding for you so far? Any hot tire pick up? Any suggestions? Thank you so much!

I have an old Jeep Wrangler that if it didn't leak I would think there was something wrong with it ;). Have you had any experience with oil leaking on the floor and if so, how it has held up? I am not one to clean up my oil drips on my concrete, so I don't want to waste time and money doing this if the oil stains will mess it up. Thanks!

Looks good man - I was wondering how that Seal-Crete would work on top of the epoxy since I read online that it specifically should not be applied to 2-part epoxy coating (for whatever reason). I personally am going with H&C Clarishield for the clear coat ($50 / gal) because of what I read about the Seal-Crete. Hopefully this stuff looks as good! I'm jealous of your (minimal) prep - I had to caulk about 200 linear feet of cracks and I probably used half of my 10lb bag of quickrete to fill in missing chunks and spalling. Then I had to grind it all down with an angle grinder (which was actually pretty fun). All-in-all I would say that my concrete repairs took me an additional 8 hours over 3 days (waiting for drying, etc). Thanks for the video though! Love to see these things from start to finish.

Also my family wants to use it for get togethers in case it rains. Lol. The clear coat definitely helps with spills too. They come up so much easier because it doesn't absorb in paint. Thanks!
