Epoxy Coatings with Decorative Flakes (or Chips)

The most common garage floor solution is an epoxy floor with decorative flakes or chips. There are several benefits to adding these to your floor. They are a great source of traction and do not make your garage floor slippery. It is generally less slippery than your normal concrete when wet. With concrete slabs come imperfections in the finish – this means low spots, waves, etc. Normally you can see these imperfections well, however, when a gloss epoxy coating is applied the imperfections are brought to light. The flakes will hide these imperfections and make your floor look beautiful! And, not to mention, the flakes come in many sizes and hundreds of color combinations so you can pick the colors you like best!

After the flakes/chips are on the floor at a 100% prod-cast, we seal them in with a super high-gloss performance clear epoxy coat and gives that WOW factor!Custom Epoxy Garage Floor

Comments Off on Concrete that looks like WOOD?

Recently we decided to experiment with making our Decorative Concrete appear to look like a different type of concrete, normally we do alot of concrete that looks like Tile, cobblestone, flagstone, brick….. but never have we attempted to make our Decorative Concrete look like BARN WOOD PLANKS.

UNTIL TODAY!!IMG_1522

Okay, this week we’re at a home in climax, pray in Lake of the Ozarks I’ve got a screened-in porch here. What I’m doing in here is I’ve already ground down the majority of it. I have to take off the top layer.

You can kind of see where I’ve stopped here, and this little bit right here is what I have left to grind down, but it all it all looked like that. So I ‘ Ve got the majority of this ground down and we’re, trying to get it ready for the overlay this week and then out here we have the main part of the job.

I have a lot of cracks here to repair. Still, as you can see, we’re gonna go ahead and get those fixed up and they just kind of continue. This is probably the worst of it on this side, a little bit of stain going on here, get that all cleaned up pressure washed after I repair these cracks myself ears, pretty good.

It’s, a brand new slab. Here I don’t know how old it is, but it’s. Not very old. Just need some cleaning. This job in Lake of the Ozarks climax Springs. Missouri is now complete, but another coat of sealer on the Hamilton job.

This coat is our shine coat. It just really really brings the color of the acid stain it’s on this concrete out gives it a super. Nice shine just makes that color pop you you. This is inside the screened-in area.

Take your rum side over here get inside here. This is pretty fresh, so just gives us a little bit different view, so much shine on the other side and that wraps up this job climax Springs Lake of the Ozarks Missouri you

We started this Project with Concrete that was about 20 years of age, it had several cracks and some stained area’s, part of the concrete was just added within the last year, so the colors of the two slabs of concrete was way different, my client wanted to have the cracks repaired and make the New and Old concrete colors blend together and look as one single slab, and that’s exactly what we did.IMG_1267

Our First task was to do some grinding, open the cracks up and get them repaired, after that we had to get the concrete prepped and ready for a Brand New Overlay with some Acid Staining. The Base coats went down great and the two large slabs of concrete now looked like they were the same color, the texture was a rock trowel, once the texture was on we put plastic on the home and the screened in patio area.

Next step was to Acid Stain the entire surface to pull it all together and marbleize the surface, we used a Chocolate and a Charcoal Colorant to add into our Antiquing Stains, so we were looking for a taupe color, once we had the color blend we were looking for we started the Acid Staining Process.

The Final step was to Lock it all in with a Quality Sealer and make the concrete look new and revived, I believe we saved the home owner from having to tear out and re-place the entire slab of Old Concrete which would have cost about 20k, needless to say they were very happy, please enjoy the pictures located here I will have a Video up very soon.
