Return To ShopHOME MAKEOVER WITH MARBLED EPOXY METALLICS FLOOR COATING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Homeowner wanted to upgrade their concrete floor as part of a home renovation project. They wanted a system that looked great and yet tough and durable. They chose a metallics marbled epoxy system made by Floor Products.
The concrete floor was thoroughly prepared prior to application of product. The floor was prepped with a concrete diamond grinder, washed and vacuumed. They then applied the 3 step process.
Resulting look was dramatic. Although there is no brown pigment in the epoxy, the metallic floor picks up the brown color of the ceiling with great effect. Below are the 3 application steps.
Step 1.) Applied HyperREZ UV Resistant Epoxy with solid color black pigment as primer at recommended 150 sq’/gallon. A solid color is key element in a metallics system as it aids the decorative look and black color is used in most metallics systems.
Step 2.) Applied HyperREZ UV Epoxy as basecoat at 75 sq’/gallon (recommended to apply at 50 – 75 sq’/gallon) which provides great looking depth. HyperREZ Epoxy is specified for use in all Floorguards’ metallic systems due to its durability, decorative look and excellent UV resistance. They used both the Pearl and Twilight metallic colors mixed with the HyperREZ Epoxy. Application technique is key to getting a great looking metallics floor system. How you move the squeegee around the floor, backrolling and where you pour each of the metallic colors is where the artistic flair comes in. Possibilities are endless.
Step 3.) Applied zioTHANE HP High Gloss Urethane as topcoat at recommended 400 sq’/gallon. zioTHANE enhances looks with a nice high gloss, clear protective surface to provide increased protection for the metallics basecoat with excellent chemical & abrasion resistance and a non-yellowing aliphatic UV resistant topcoat. Offers a long 1-2 hour POT life for long working time.
