1 day installation
A one day garage floor polyaspartic flake system is a fast and efficient way to upgrade your garage floor. The process typically involves the following steps:
- Preparation: The first step is to thoroughly clean the garage floor, removing any debris or stains. Then, the floor is sanded to remove any existing coatings or sealers and create a slightly rough surface for better adhesion.
- Crack Filling: Any cracks or joints in the floor are filled with a specialized crack filler that expands and contracts with the concrete to prevent future cracking.
- Application of Moisture Barrier (if necessary): If the garage floor is located in a basement or on the ground floor of a building, it may be necessary to install a moisture barrier to prevent moisture from seeping through the concrete and affecting the polyaspartic coating.
- Polyaspartic Coating: Once the floor is prepared, a polyaspartic coating is applied. This is a fast-drying, highly durable coating that can withstand heavy traffic and resist stains and abrasions. The coating is applied in several layers to ensure even coverage.
- Flake Application: While the final layer of the polyaspartic coating is still wet, flakes are broadcast over the surface of the floor. These flakes come in a variety of colors and sizes, allowing you to choose a look that complements your garage and personal style.
- Topcoat Application: Once the flakes are applied, a final topcoat of polyaspartic coating is applied to seal in the flakes and protect the surface of the floor.
The entire process typically takes only one day, allowing you to start using your garage floor the very next day. Additionally, the fast-drying nature of polyaspartic coatings means that you won’t have to wait long for your new garage floor to be ready for use.
