Before application, the concrete floor was thoroughly prepared. To ensure the floor was ready a concrete diamond grinder was used to rough up the concrete until the surface had the feel of 60-100 grit sandpaper.
After preparations, the epoxy was mixed using a Jiffy style drill mixer to ensure consistent color across the floor without streets. Next, the E1850 epoxy in Light Gray was then applied at 130 sq ft per gallon with a flat floor squeegee. While the epoxy was still wet, they applied the Baboon Vinyl Flakes 1/4" to refusal, giving them a full flake broadcast where you only see the flakes.
Before application of the E1900 polyaspartic, the excess flakes were scrapped off using a heavy duty floor scraper.

The E1900 Polyaspartic provides protection of the flakes , the underlying surface while additionally providing UV protection (will not yellow in the sunlight).
