I put this video together to help anyone wanting to do their own epoxy floors. The products used for this floor are Arizona Polymer Flooring APF E400 in Safety blue. The clear coat is APF P100.

We put epoxy over new concrete, cut epoxy is a great option to go over old concrete and make it look like new. Because epoxy has color in it, it doesn't matter if the concrete is old and has stains on it, as long as you clean it really good, the epoxy will stick very well to concrete and give you an amazing look. Epoxy is not limited to solid colors, you can also do metallic epoxy floors, which use metallic flakes to give you amazing variations in colors and make it look amazing. Many people do metallic epoxy floors in their garage to enhance the look and give them a show room look.
You can also put epoxy over wood. If you have a countertop, you can seal the wood with APF P250 first, and then put epoxy over it, and come back with a food grade clear coat to make it food safe. Epoxy has tons of different uses not limited to concrete. I hope this video helps you tackle your own project. Good luck.

Most people would do 1 coat and skip the sanding. This guy does 2, then applies a coat of polyurethane. It's nice to see someone who takes pride in their work.

Most people wouldn't put acetone into 100% solids epoxy... that's one of the reasons he's getting the bubbles. No bubbles means no need to sand between coats.

Commercial kitchens (if you have fryers) should have a urethane cement with quartz broadcast & polyaspartic top coats. Nothing you watched here will prepare you for that install. Epoxy will delaminatecat 140*, polyaspartic at 180*, and your UC will take whatever heat you throw at it. There's no comparison.

Great advice all the way around! Surface prep is definitely key and you are doing a fantastic job. A couple of observations for those that might not do this everyday. In the video it looks like the epoxy was being applied the next morning. Your results will be significantly better and you will have fewer air bubbles if you apply your epoxy in the evening as the concrete and air temperature cools. In practical terms, concrete exhales as it heats up (morning through afternoon) which causes outgassing and creates air bubbles in the epoxy. Likewise, it inhales as it cools (evening to morning) soaking up the epoxy and leaving a much smoother finish. If I might offer one piece of advice, you might look at using another solvent besides acetone. Acetone loves water and will pull residual moisture out of the concrete, bind with it, and cause small blisters that look like outgassing and pinholes.

I used to work for a company that put down epoxy flooring. We used to wear metal golf spikes to walk around on it and it was slick. I worked with a guy who slipped and fell in a puddle of the epoxy and he had to go to the hospital to have his clothes removed and get the epoxy off his face and hair. It made me more cautious after seeing that happen. We used to go into a factory on Friday afternoon and not stop until We had the floor blasted, new clad laid and and epoxy coating put on. It had to be done and ready for the plant to open up on Monday morning for 1st shift. We would work 40+ hours in 2 days with no sleep on most weekends. I don't miss that job. I am actually allergic to epoxy now from all the exposure I had to it back in the 90's. My face swells like a balloon now if I even mess with stuff like JB Weld.

I've poured a couple of epoxy floors myself and followed recommendations from other RU-vid video's. However, this video is the absolute best because the guy really explains the why's and why not's. Other video's seem to be made mostly by people who want to sell you the epoxy and they skip or don't explain so much of the tedius, time consuming preparations like sanding and acid washing. I don't agree about accepting the bubbles though- a gas torch (preferably) or heat gun used briefly on the bubbles will get rid of them and avoid the need for sanding the popped bubbles afterwards. The popped bubbles really do ruin the look of what would otherwise be an amazingly glossy surface. Also, I used silica sand sprinkled on the epoxy just before it finally sets hard (in other words, while it's tacky like treacle) but you can also get non slip products to do the same job. Well done mate!

After a few injuries, (and WorkCover claims!) The boss had the floors done again - this time with some sand grit added to the epoxy to provide some traction!!

And you went forward and backwards when you started to "lay" the floor we go from left to right and i always use a brush near the base.

To be clear, not all floor coatings thin down with acetone. A lot of epoxies thin with MEK, so read your specs. Also, I've personally seen good products ruined by air bubbles due to not letting part A and B cook after first mixing. What I mean by this is, once you mix A and B together most epoxies have to set for 15 to 30 minutes undisturbed then remixed before use. If not, the chemical reaction between components after applied will trap the off gassing of the epoxy causing bubbled finish. On a side note, if water beads on your concrete before painting, it's not porous enough to finish. It should be able to absorb moisture. I'm not trying to nitpick, but floor coatings can be expensive to paint and more expensive to correct failures. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS and follow to a T.

What you refer to as cooking is something similar that's supposed to be done in tile work also. Epoxy thinset and grout has a three minutes "slake" time, remix and move quick. You have 20 minutes before the mix sets. In all other types of non epoxy mixes you have a 10-15 min slake time then remix.

Wow, kinda pricey, but looks great! I only spent $7.00 here in north Texas to get my shop slab poured. That's a 5 inch slab with 2' beams on the shop area, and 16" beams on the parking cover. Guess I may have to either do it myself or paint it. :( But thanks.
