RUST-OLEUM Concrete Patch & Repair + EpoxySheild Garage Floor Coating Kit=Amazing.. DIY Crack Repair 

Totally disagree with your methodology and chemical that you use. - the crack was supposed to be air blown (cleaned), primed with primer to enhance proper bondage on the cracked sides of the concrete surface and filled with liquid crack filler since you have patched the top surface only and the sides of cracked surface don't have a proper substrate to receive / bond new material. - Never to polish the concrete surface since it will make it shiny smooth and loose your bond b/n the old concrete surface and epoxy. This will definitely will shear your epoxy coating especially when you steer your wheels on the garage. I recommend you to apply a light acid coat to itch-up the concrete surface to create proper bondage between the concrete surface and the epoxy paint. - Finally, mix and apply your epoxy coating as per the manufacturers instruction.

We can do that for the drive way There are many brand of epoxy we can u

What is the best epoxy we can use Name and price and where it’s sold Thank you

@@Ath551 thank you

@@Ath551 He didn’t video every step. He mentioned etching the concrete and that’s part of the Rustoleum EpoxyShield kit and directions. I wondered the same as you whether or not he blew out the crack after leveling. I’d assume he did but if so, like the etching, he didn’t show it. The best way to insure adhesion is to abrade the surface but EpoxyShield is a DIY home use product and not a true epoxy and therefore is too thin. That’s why they recommend etching.

Thank you

I was thinking of doing something similar to that. But I figured it didn’t really matter being that I would have to come back and basically top the cracks off because of the sinkage. I’ll definitely give that a try though. Thank you for watching.

Sand and backer rod work for when you just caulking a crack to prevent water intrusion but for repairing a crack before applying a finished top coat, you want the epoxy to fill the crack for overall strength. I think the two-step process is the best way, even if it takes longer to do it.

Me too! I just breathed a sigh of relief cuz I was getting crazy high quotes for this

Lol I was thinking the same thing.

He later poured gas on every ant hill on his lawn and burned the mass of them…

It’s hard to like people that are evil.

Yes Sir. If the concrete company would have taking more time in preparing the ground before laying the slab this would have either never happened or been very minor. Prep is the most important thing. Thank you for watching

Thank you Bert I appreciate that. Thank you for watching

Your welcome. It’s not hard you will do great. Thank you for watching

Thank you

Thank you. That means a lot to me.

Hello 👋🏽

Thank you. Lol that ant is famous and does whatever he wants.

Thank you for watching. It’s really amazing how far the reach is with today’s society. What part of India are from?

@@tidaleffect7844 southern India.

Love India. From United States!!!!

@@earthishome1866 thank you!

That’s great. It’s really not hard. Just remember to wear your safety equipment. Make sure you do the acid wash to the best of your ability so that you get proper adhesion. Buy more than enough chips you can always take them back if you don’t use them. Also once you start don’t stop until it’s done no breaks the epoxy has a pot life. Vacuum up any loose chips and don’t be cheap get the clear coat. Simple steps for a big transformation. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Good luck with your project and thanks for watching.

@@tidaleffect7844 thanks again

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Then You are a hero!😊

Same way as he sanded it before filling the cracks.

He didn’t show it but listening to the narrative, I believe that the floor was only etched before applying the Rustoleum product. That would be consistent with the EpoxyShield kits and their instructions. Most DIYer’s would not have access to shot blasting equipmentt, which is what the pros use in commercial applications before applying true epoxy coatings. The problem is, most of those companies don’t want to do residential because of limited square footage. You can rent a small walk behind grinder from HD and others but not sure how well they work to scarify the surface.

It's an electric water heater...

@@newtonroberts590 Got that right!! Not to mention that all the mechanicals look to be neat and well done...

Yeah, I made sure the builders used heavy steel mesh reinforcement in our garage floor because I'd seen so many other cracked floors. Ten yrs later no cracks in our garage floor even though two vehicles drive over it every day

The problem is they don't put in control joints if they don't use heavy mesh or rebar - most concrete will crack but if you put control joints in(no more than 8 ft in any direction) at least you can control where the concrete cracks will be.

We also used a chemical called pm5 for cracks as it was rubbery and would stretch with the crack if any movement happens

I have another video where I used Tile Clad. Its a great product. The video thumbnail has a orange kayak in the back ground. Hopefully if they told you about that product they told you about the website for custom chips. If not go to Torginal and check it out. It’s not that expensive and you can really set yourself apart from the guy down the street. Plus you can get the Tileclad made in any color. So many ways to go. Just make sure you prep the floor properly before doing it and you will have a nuclear bomb resistant floor. Thank you for watching
