    Floor in bad shape - not sure what to do

    I'm not sure it's the color coat because after he finished the color coat and put down the chips it looked incredible. It was only after he put on the clear and AO that it went bad. If he adds another color coat to it won't it be uneven because of the chips? Or do you mean he should sand...

    Floor in bad shape - not sure what to do

    I posted previously about a problem with a recently installed epoxy floor with aluminum oxide. After the job was done I could see lots of roller lines all over the floor.

    Newbie Here: Grinder, Shot Blast or ......?

    It's 21.5 x 21.3. So, about 450 feet. It looks like it's sealed to me too. I'll check for sure tomorrow.

    Newbie Here: Grinder, Shot Blast or ......?

    Hi all: I'm planning on putting down an epoxy floor in my garage. The house is about 15 years old. You can see in the pictures the condition of the floor. It's mostly covered in joint compound and dust right now. :o I can't tell if it's ever been sealed. I want to make sure I do the prep...
