Our team of experienced professionals follows a step-by-step process to ensure a perfect installation every time.
1. Preparation
The first step in the process of installing polyaspartic/polyurea coating is to prepare the surface of your garage floor. This involves cleaning and prepping the surface to ensure a strong bond between the coating and the surface.
We begin by clearing the area and removing any objects, such as tools or equipment, from the garage. Next, we use a floor grinder or shot blaster to remove any dirt, dust, or debris from the surface of the floor. This ensures that the surface is clean and free of any contaminants that could prevent the coating from adhering properly.
2. Repairs
Once the surface is clean and prepped, our team inspects the floor for any cracks, holes, or other damage that needs to be repaired. We fill any cracks or holes with an epoxy filler, ensuring that the surface is smooth and level.
3. Basecoat
Once the primer is dry, we apply the basecoat. The basecoat is the layer that provides the main color and texture of the flooring system.
We apply the basecoat in a thin, even layer, using a roller or sprayer. We allow the basecoat to dry for several hours, or as per the manufacturer's instructions.
4. Flake Broadcast
The next step in the process is to broadcast the flakes into the wet basecoat layer. The flakes are available in a wide range of colors and styles, allowing for a custom finish that is unique to your garage.
Our team broadcasts the flakes using a specialized machine, which allows for even distribution across the surface of the floor. We adjust the amount of flakes to meet your desired look.
5. Scraping
After broadcasting the flakes, we allow the coating to dry for several hours or as per the manufacturer's instructions. We then scrape off any excess flakes, using a scraper or squeegee. This ensures that the flakes are evenly distributed across the surface of the floor.
6. Topcoat
The final step in the process is to apply the topcoat. The topcoat provides a protective layer over the basecoat and flakes, ensuring the durability and longevity of the flooring system.
We apply the topcoat in a thin, even layer, using a roller or sprayer. We allow the topcoat to dry for several hours or as per the manufacturer's instructions.
The entire process typically takes one to two days, depending on the size and complexity of the garage. Our team works efficiently and professionally to ensure that your garage floor is ready for use as soon as possible.
