This system is unique to most epoxy
coated garage floors. The unique properties are the flexibility of the
system. The system is a epoxy floor coating with
elastomeric properties. This is
not a standard epoxy and, therefore is a custom system. We can also add
recycled car tires to the system to keep it flexible and, still give some
texture. Our
systems are a standard 16 mils in thickness but, with a full broadcast of rubber
can increase the thickness to 80-100 mils ( nominal 1/8 inch ) thick. We also offer a thinner system at
40-60 mils ( nominal 1/16 inch ) thick.
The preparation recommended for this system is
shotblasting.
This is a mechanical method of preparing the concrete to receive high performance
epoxy systems. This removes the laitance (the weak part of the concrete) and allows
the epoxy to bond to the concrete.
Chemical resistant urethane (CRU), is a solvent based
product that will not affect the texture greatly, but will enhance the chemical
resistance, and UV stability. This would be an additional top coat. The CRU comes in two finishes: glossy, and satin.
