Any pictures of the screwed up floor? Maybe its not as bad as you think. I made a few mistakes on my floor and posted a thread of all the problems hopefully to save someone elses ***, but the funny thing is that neighbors look at the floor and think its a perfect & great job -- of course I know...

I'm just a cheap *** and it was a last minute decision, thats why I made my own ( I spent the $20 on beer). They worked fine and were plenty sturdy for me BUT have to agree that you should just buy a real pair in ADVANCE, the thought of falling on a freshly epoxied floor is horrific in the...

I made my own. Cost was a box of drywall screws, plywood was free. They are not pretty but they worked great! To attach them I drove drywall screws from inside the shoes, just a few will do the trick.

Yeah. I wanted an even coverage and didnt want to run out. It was my first time doing this so I had no idea how far the chips would last to get the coverage I needed. Plus I was also done pretty darn quickly and if you are using 100% epoxy the biggest issue is that it sets up fast so your...

Added some pictures from my garage floor. As you can see I used a lot of chips -- I like that look. I also took the time to do the sides which really made it look complete.

Wow you really messed this one up. Sometimes, you have to serve as a warning to others. Since your garage floor now looks like hell, I wonder if a shot blaster would remove the epoxy?

My 2 cents: - buy or make some spiked shoes so you can work with larger sections. - cut and paint sides and trim ...the small stuff 1st. Just get it out of the way PLUS you get experience working with epoxy on a small scale vs. mixing a bucket of the stuff and all hell breaks loose.

Definetly use a watering can. I wouldnt want to be pressurizing acid -- this just seems like a real bad idea. Also I assume you are dilluting this stuff first?

I used the epoxy master product from costco -- results were awesome. Tough looking stuff vs. the water base junk. No clear coat needed. Setup time is short so have a plan -- read my other post with my tips regardless of which epoxy you go with.

You do not need a clear coat with this stuff. My garage looks like glass using Epoxy Master. A friend who used the waterbased stuff needed a clear coat so I repeat, epoxy master is a high gloss product no clear coat needed.

Yeah I just used that stuff and am VERY happy with it. I cant see how dog pee or anything else for that matter can wreck the floor, this stuff is pretty tough. Remember prices are negotiable so you can probably get a better price than $295 if you simply ask, try starting with the costco price...

Thought I'd throw in my 2 cents. After searching around I decided to go with the EpoxyMaster from Costco. A friend of mine used a water based epoxy and a top coat ( H&C brand ) and I thought it looked good. However, the results I got with 100% epoxy ( Epoxymaster) is just awesome and much, much...
