-After grinding, floor area is vacuumed and blowed.
Purpose:
Creates a clean, open-pore surface for strong bonding and long-term durability.
Crack & Defect Repairs
Static cracks, pinholes, and surface defects are filled with repair mortar or crack filler.
Purpose:
Ensures a seamless and visually consistent finish.
Phase 2
Epoxy Prime & Base Coat Application
A high-build, 100% solids epoxy base coat is mixed on site.
Applied evenly and back-rolled for uniform thickness.
Full Broadcast Decorative Flakes
While the epoxy is still wet, decorative vinyl flakes are hand-broadcasted
Floor is left to cure overnight.
Purpose:
Decorative flakes will enhance look, hide blemishes, provides durability and an attractive, seamless appearance.
