Okay, I'm ready to put the epoxy to the floor. There are water-based epoxies and 2-part epoxies. Of the 2-part epoxies I have seen, there are 65% solids and 100% solids.
With the water-based epoxy, it takes several coats to add up to 8-10 mils thick. However, with the 2-part, 100% solids epoxy, they claim that you get a 13-15 mil thick finish in one application. The prep is the same for either and is key to success. I have looked at the water-based brands at Lowes and HD. I called Rustoleum and they have an industrial version that is tougher than the stuff they sell through HD but still water-based I believe. U-Coat-It is another water-based epoxy. Has anyone tried the 2-part epoxy floor covering? |
