I understand your point... the reason I did it was even if it peals up on the caulk line that's only three sixteenths of an inch it'll still be well bonded to the concrete. I really wanted the saw lines sealed up so they don't collect dirt....I could have waited and caulked them after I was...

Putting clear coat on tonight. My only concern is weather the epoxy will stick to the polyurethane caulk I used to fill the saw marks. I really wanted to fill them and that is all I could find locally.

I am thinking i might go with the tile clad for base coat, an armorseal Hs for top coat. The numbers are: Tileclad B62V & B60VZ70 Armorseal HS B65-220 B65V220 there is YouTube video " the Idaho painter" that I watched and this is what he used. He seems to do floors professionally. He did...

I am concerned that my local sw store rep is confused about what I put down. He quoted a armor seal hs for basecoat, flake color then rexthane. I told him I was going off a spec sheet from sw that said armor seal 1000 hs reduced with a thinner, then 2 coats armor seal hs polyurethane floor...

Just watched a video from the Idaho painter.... should I apply 2 Coates before clear coating? He also reduces the first coat.

Uhhg....scholarship = alcohol wipe. Sick this autocorrect.

I am not sure...I remember it was rustoleum and it had a picture of a sweet car on a perfect garage floor....this last time it was the clear coat that was coming up. I am sure I based coated let it dry and vlear coated within 24hrs. I usually follow the direction. The floor had been strip...

But half done...some spots are not coming off though...I keep going over and over them and they slowly chip away. It isn't hard to run the machine just takes time.

So are you saying that the strip shirt will be good enough. I did about one-quarter of the garage with the cupped diamond wheel so that is stripped and ground into the concrete. I was thinking that the strip search would just strip the epoxy off and not really grind into the concrete

I rented a floor stripper today for about 200 bucks I also bought a cop diamond wheel that work good initially. When I'm done with the stripper should I touch the entire floor with the diamond wheel to ensure that I'm down to clean concrete?

I called to rent a grinder and he said that a diamond wheel would not work on epoxy...it would only get gummed up. What kind of grinding wheel do you recommend?

Thanks guys...hoping this will be the last time I do this. Local SW store has the armorseal for 150 a gallon that is actually 2 gallons total A&B. I will need to double that. ....sounds reasonable.

Fellas.... I've done two go rounds with the Rust-Oleum Epoxy paint on my garage floor. Each time it's lasted about 5 years before needing to be recoated. I am looking for something that is more permanent that will last a little longer. I see that the Sherwin-Williams armorseal comes...
