Thread: Shop floor

Tweet

I used a two part epoxy finish that I found at Home Depot. I needed two kits for +/- 700 square feet. As it dries, you sprinkle the little "fairy dust" flakes. The flakes add some texture so it's not too slippery to work on.

I'm not near as rough on the floor as Pat and Jerry, but I certainly haven't babied it either. Five years old and still looks pretty good. Cleans up nice with hot soapy water and any stains wipe off pretty well with acetone.

I washed the floor real well with hot soapy water and etched with muratic acid prior to application. The process cost was about $200 bucks and I did it in two weekends (half at a time).. I'm satisfied with the result - but If I had it to do over, I'd go a bit lighter on the flakes..
