    I know this is a really old thread and question, but I thought I would answer it anyway. I installed the epoxyshield back in 2005 (September). So it's been 8 year now and it looks "the same" as when I put it down. No peeling of any kind. It's a bit dirty (I need to wash it - maybe I'll get...

    Rustoleum Epoxyshield "Industrial" Floor Coating

    Uneven Application of Epoxyshield Hello, I applied the Expoyshield Friday (Sept 30) and even though it has been drying for about 36 hours it is still very "streaky". The 4x4 areas look they have a bit of a border around them (I will try and post a picture either in or an as attachment to this...
