Wow, that's an awesome high-gloss you have there without a topcoat! Great job! Rick.

Seems to be more and more common. Good men being replaced by vibrating gadgets... :yikes:

No, it seemed to stay suspended pretty well in the pan. It did accumulate a little on the ribbed section of the pan, but I tried to keep it moving. I know several areas where the SuperGrip is thicker than others, but for most people, I would have to stand them in a spot with the light...

The total came out to just under $2 per SF. I know what you mean. I felt the same way at first. Actually, I thought it was outrageous. :bounce: As I read more about epoxy and read the reports of the people who used it, I started to come around. Once I decided that I wanted a 2-part primer...

"IntegraFlex is a 1:1 ratio of resin and hardener, so work with say 2 cups of hardener mixed with 32 cups of resin," Fred, am I reading this right? :confused: Rick.

I know what you mean. All the brochures every company puts out shows the absolute glossiest shine that's possible. At first, that's what I wanted as well. Yes, the SuperGrip reduces the gloss in an overall wide-angle view. But if you look at the close-up photo above with the dime, and the...

Yo, Mike... Your garage looks awesome, (from what little I can see of it).... :) Do you have a full photo spread on the forum? Thanks, Rick.

As for price comparisons, I just completed my garage floor with commercial grade 100% solids Wolverine epoxy at approx. 25 mils total thickness, including prime coat, base coat, flakes, and clearcoat with anti-slip compound. The cost was just under $2.00/SqFt. Rick.

I used the Wolverine LiquaTile/EnduraShield process, and it seemed very dry in 24 hours, very HARD & completely dry in 48 hours. So I put the cars in the garage after only 6 days. :) That should tell you a liitle bit about my "detail-oriented personality disorder"... :bounce: Rick.

Thanks for the question - it brought up a little story I forgot about... I put down the LiquaTile on 1/4 of the garage followed by flakes each time, so I was only 15 minutes or so between the two. So after I did the epoxy/flakes 4 times, a couple of hours had passed. Then I spent an hour...

LiquaTile! I separated/measured the Flakes into 4 containers and mixed the LiquaTile in 4 batches. My custom blend of Flakes from Wolverine: 30% Black 30% Charcoal 30% White 10% Red It’s an experience just to open the LiqaTile and try to put a stirring stick in it. Thicker than pudding...

I have a 640 SF 2-car attached garage that had been neglected since the house was built, and the existing sheetrock had turned brown, the tape was peeling off, the floor had stains, etc… After I spent most of the winter ripping off pegboard, putting up insulation and sheetrock, finishing...

I had a bit of dust after the etching and drying. I finished up by brushing with a stiff brush and then running over it with a shop vac. That seemed to take care of it. Rick.

ROFL! I was where you are, 2 weeks ago! Happy to have the products delivered, but afraid to open the containers, as if it would turn to solid stone before my eyes... Too bad I'm all finished, now that I know how to do it. :) I'm getting my photos and story together to post it all on here. 1...
