Finding the right garage floor coating can be tough when you want to remodel. Choosing the right option for you and your family can be a massive headache with the sheer number of choices at your disposal. Do you use a non-slip coating? Do you paint over the concrete? Do you throw a few rugs down on your garage floor and call it a day?

Epoxy flooring is a popular option for DIY enthusiasts and people on a budget due to its smooth sheen, low price, and non-slip coating. What better way to impress guests or potential home buyers than with brand-new metallic epoxy garage floors?

But what if we told you that there is a better option?

At EMC Concrete Coatings, our team of professionals installs polyurea garage floor coatings with a polyaspartic topcoat. These give all of the aesthetic and non-slip qualities of epoxy garage coatings with none of the drawbacks. Our garage floor coatings are built to last, handling the elements and those humid San Antonio summers better than epoxy flooring.

What Is Epoxy Garage Floor?

Epoxy is a coating that chemically bonds with specially prepared concrete, specifically made with resins and other hardeners. Epoxy painting your garage floor is as simple as going to your local hardware store, picking the colors you want, and pouring it onto your prepared floor.

These are attractive to homeowners who want professional-looking work without the hassle of hiring a contractor.

Unfortunately, while epoxy garage floors cost very little and garage epoxy is comparatively more accessible, you get what you pay for. Humid summers and harsh rainy seasons can get moisture caught between the garage epoxy and the concrete. This will damage the coating and make those glossy epoxy floors unsightly.

What Is a Polyurea coating?

Polyurea is a durable non-slip coating with a glossy finish, similar to epoxy. These coatings are sealants that bind with the concrete and protect it from chemicals, heat, and the elements.

Unlike epoxy, polyurea coatings have a more flexible bond with the floor, preventing damage due to changed weight distribution and inclement weather.

They also dry faster: polyurea coatings can be done quicker as compared to other epoxies. This makes polyurea both more reliable and convenient than even the strongest epoxies.

How Do We Install Our Polyurea Garage Coatings?

Our contractors apply polyurea floor coatings in a very similar way to epoxy floor coatings. We prepare the concrete, apply the coating, then leave it to dry. It is a very simple process that is convenient for everyone involved.

Preparing the Floors

Preparing concrete for a polyurea coating involves smoothing out the floor and fixing any pitting or cracks. This allows for a level surface that will not warp or destroy the coating.

Applying the Basecoat

After the floor is smoothed out and repaired, it is time to apply the polyurea to the concrete. Depending on the job, this may require a primer coat. Some basecoats double as primers and do not require the same amount of layers as other polyurea coatings.

When the basecoat is applied, it is left to cure for several hours until our contractors can walk on it.

Adding Aesthetic Features

Once the first layer is dry, the second layer is applied. This is when we add any aesthetic features, like vinyl chips, to your floor.

With polyurea coatings, vinyl chips are first cast into the coating and then smoothed out to prevent any jagged edges or unsightly clumping. After that, we leave it to cure again.

Applying the Clear Coat

Finally, we add a clear coat for UV protection and extra shine. Once this cures, your polyurea floor will be ready for you and your family to walk on. After 24 to 48 hours, you can park your cars on top of it, no problem.
