Garage Floor Coating In Sherwood Park, Alberta

Garage Floor Coating Needs A Hard Top For Rock Chips

Rock chips are why your garage floor coating needs a hard clear top. Many residential streets in the county get chips in winter, and they ride home in your tire treads. Each time you pull in, those stones get pressed into the floor and dragged along it.

A full flake broadcast makes the floor thick, and the clear top is the sacrificial layer that takes the scratches. If that top ever looks dull years from now, it can be cleaned and recoated without grinding the whole floor off.

Why Store Kits Fail Where Garage Floor Coating Holds

A kit lifts because the slab under it was only etched. Kits use acid or a cleaner, then roll on a thin layer of epoxy paint. Hot tires soften that film after a winter drive, and it peels away in the shape of the tread.

Every garage we coat is ground first. The diamonds leave a texture like fine sandpaper, and the base coat wicks into it. The finished build is far heavier than anything sold in a box, and that weight is what keeps it down.

Picking Your Garage Floor Coating System

Two builds cover most garages: an epoxy base with a clear polyaspartic top, or a polyaspartic floor coating in every layer. The epoxy route saves a little money and suits a heated garage. The all-polyaspartic route is done in a day, tolerates a chilly slab and resists sun fade.
