I'm leaning on putting my iqair in the garage overnight, if it still smells in a week, but considering the price on replacement charcoal filters and already being out on fan rental and extended storage pod costs...definitely expected a discount on the final invoice, esp. considering that at the...

Well, it's been a week and a half of airing it out with two commercial fans (one on intake and one to move the air out). Can still EASILY indent it with a fingernail, but hot tires with the car left on the floor for ~3 hours left no obvious marks. The smell is almost non-existent, while the fans...

That's what I'm thinking. Not really, up to 80s during the day, down to high 50s overnight. I'm giving it until Saturday, and then will request a full grind off and refund if it's still not cured.

The chips were a great antislip when it was just one coat, now that it's 2, they're too deeply covered by the top coat. They did put in sharkgrip, in the recommended amount as per them, but I don't feel it/see it at all in a lot of places. It's day 3 after they redid the topcoat, smells same as...

$6/square foot, with a slight discount for being a repeat customer (used their painting team to skim coat the garage ceiling after flush light install)

Company owner is offering a full refund so that I just leave him alone, but is also insisting that they did a great job. Not currently comfortable accepting the refund, as we run in the same circles and it would not reflect good on me, despite whishing I never started this project with them...

Can you advise on: (1) how dangerous the "slipping" factor is? After they sanded and re-did the topcoat, you can no longer feel the flake texture (except in places they missed during the first coat), and the sharkgrip can't really be felt, it's just a smooth resin texture (that while dry, seems...

Btw, this was exactly their response - the low spots of my concrete filled up with the topcoat "and it's not due to any defects in their workmanship". Which, I'm not sure how this makes sense if they grinded the floor prior to install?

Yup, I've spent hours reading through the threads on here about similar issue, but was hoping for direct responses so I could send this to my contractor so that he stops insisting they did an awesome job and I'm just unusually picky. They sanded the topcoat yesterday and reapplied with some...

Having the same issue, they already sanded the topcoat and reapplied it, but it's been 24 hours, and while it smells like what the first coat smelled like on day 3, I'm worried they just sealed up the uncured deep spots of the first coat and didn't sand it off all they way. It also still indents...

My freshly installed (and the polyaspartic coating redone because the first time they did it was even worse) looks like this. Installers saying this is normal and due to unevenness in garage concrete coating. I think it's BS but am not sure I have much choice but to accept it.

Not worth starting a new thread, but wanted to share a photo of my garage lighting (some light covers haven't been installed yet, so those lights looks thinner). Can't be seen in the picture, but the pattern is geometrically even on the ceiling. Lights are flush with the the ceiling...

And more photos with better lighting showing how patchy/uneven the topcoat looks.

The puddles are kinda hard to photograph under lighting I had, but are much more noticeable in person. I have a feeling they'll come back with "your concrete was uneven", but shouldn't have that been part of the prep?

Just had polyaspartic floor installed in the garage and am unhappy with how it turned out, having the contractor stop by to review in the morning, but would like to get your opinion on some of the issues so I'm not gaslighted into thinking this is "normal": 1) Topcoat looks "wet" in many areas...
