    Another Ballistix install thread

    We still haven't parked a car in there yet, so it hasn't seen snow/salt (I'm building furniture for my boy's room, so it's a wood shop right now). I have noticed some of the water getting through to the concrete like other posts have mentioned (snow from the snow blower, boots, golf cart when...

    ISO NG to Propane Conversion Kit Big Maxx Heater

    I've only got the orifices, not the spring, sorry.

    ISO NG to Propane Conversion Kit Big Maxx Heater

    Let me see if I threw it out or not. I just installed an 80K unit, I think I still have these parts in my trash pile yet to go out to the bin. Not sure if they're compatible though...

    Ballistix coating review

    Looks great @Jim N

    Another Ballistix install thread

    And I'd like to follow that up for anyone reading with another statement that I would absolutely buy and apply this again (and will on our basketball court next summer/fall). I'm just trying to be super transparent so everyone can get a read off of my installation in their research, but I...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    I would assume it would be a little less obvious without the sheen, but don't read TOO much into it. It's one of those "only you'll notice it" type of things that if you're just walking through you don't really see. Plus the concrete itself has enough variation in it to mask/hide it too. I...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    Hey, just noticed this reply... I was doing it on a new construction house that I had the luxury of time on my side as I didn't have to be out of the old place immediately. I think I gave it 24 hours before I walked on it, and I gave it the full week before I moved anything in. One other...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    @Jim N I did do just it before the Ballistix application while it was "cooking". I'd assume it wouldn't matter much if it stayed clean like mine did indoors, but I'm pretty sure I read that was a step at some point (or heard it on their videos on YouTube) or I wouldn't have done it. It did...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    I applied squire. In a garage with LED strip lights 11' high, and two windows without blinds yet, its just about right. Blinding if you're in the sun glare though if that's an issue with your window placement/sun location. For the floor cleaner, yes, that's what I thought I was getting when I...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    Thanks. If you have any questions, or want to see it in person, reach out (we're just west of the DM Metro). And good luck with your build. At this point, yes, I'm completely happy. Once the prep work was done, there were NO surprises whatsoever. The sealer went down easy, the product mixed...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    A couple thoughts/observations for others doing this.... 1) The sealer does leave a texture after the rolling, just a very slight orange peel. If you are going for a "glass" finish, you'll either need to spray this on, or find a way to not leave any "standing" sealer after your roller goes over...

    Another Ballistix install thread

    Been watching some of the other threads, figured I'd make my own to not muddy up those continuing conversations. We just closed on our new home in small town Iowa, in city limits, but built as big of an attached garage as we could within the lot limitations. We've got essentially a 950 sq. ft...

    Ballistix Install

    That looks great. Nice work. I'm still mired in the patching/prepping phase, hoping to install this weekend. @Armorpoxy, what is the curing time for this? Or how long to wait before Ballistix? (roughly, knowing that temp/humidity affect it) I could not really find a hard answer in the...

    Ballistix Install

    Hopefully you're in the clear to reapply now. Even though it's a PITA in your situation, I suppose it also vouches for the product that it's this hard to remove as well. Definitely appreciate all the information/experience you'd provided to the forum, hope it works out with this next application.

    Ballistix Install

    So, were you to have tried remediating right after you laid it down, how would the steps have differed, or did you not go down that path in your discussions with the manufacturer? What I'm really asking, is if there's something else you could/should keep on hand to be ready in the event...
