A company is coming by today for the 2nd and final topcoat, this morning I noticed these marks. They mixed and poured more when they ran out of polyaspartic and then back rolled at 2 different times. Can they be corrected? How ? The owner has been good to work with. Thank you!

A company is going to vaccum and scrape full broadcast chips before laying down the polyaspartic top coat today. It looked great but The issue is upon inspection there are many areas where it looks like there is almost no epoxy as if too little was used there or the concrete absorbed it. Will...

I have an epoxy company installing a floor system today in the garage: part of it gets sun.. They are about to do a full chip broadcast and then applying 1 layer of polyaspartic top coat. In the past, I have seen garages that are quite rough due to the topcoat not being thick enough over chip, I...

Thank you for the help. So you really thinks it’s fixable to be pretty level and uniform by doing all this? I Can sand off high areas without diamond grinding? You wouldn’t start over? They also epoxied right over the joint. Thanks

What about the high areas or pitted areas?

Hi all, happy Sunday. was hoping someone could help with some advice. This floor was installed a year or 2 ago extremely sloppily. The bond seems good but It shows all of the imperfections of the concrete. Concrete wasn’t grinded at all. It was 100% solid epoxy followed by single coat...

Yes, it is much more cured this morning, not fully but almost. The problem now is that I was going to do a second coat of it since I have 2 gallons left and see a couple low spots where the topcoat went on a bit more thin, but didnt want to do it yesterday in case it didn't cure properly...

so we went with a 100% solid epoxy base, chip broadcast and then 80% solid polyaspartic top coat. The top coat was rolled on thin around 12p today. It was seal Krete poly 8000 which I included the tech data link below. It’s been almost 8 hours and while it’s dry, I can still put a scratch in...

here is a current photo. its pretty rough texture - looks like a lot of the epoxy was soaked into concrete.

Good morning everyone, I am working on fixing a bad epoxy job. The installer used 100% solid epoxy and full broadcast chip, no topcoat. I called him back and he offered to put a 100% solid clear epoxy as the topcoat. Is this standard at all or recommended? Wont this yellow? He used seal krete...

Thanks. How hard do I need to sand it with 120 grit? Do I want to create dust from removing some of the surface or no? Will this dull it out.

Thanks for the reply. Won’t Sanding down with 120 grit before the top coat dull the gray epoxy and chip?

Hi everyone. So I went with a small local company to do an epoxy floor in our garage and he didn’t do it the way he said he would. The floor was pretty rough and pitted. He acid etched then put down 100% solid epoxy that he mixed and then full broadcast. The issue is (included in pictures - 1...
