Thank you for your response. I respectfully disagree that your website provides 99% of the information including technical data. I don't think so. For instance, no technical data sheets are available. I have no problem with lack of information on your website because there are obvious...

Hello Armorpoxy, Sorry off topic but just curious, what level of customer service do you guys provide to small residential customers like me? Or are you only interested in industrial orders? Past summer I made several email inquiries about a small job (2 car garage) and apparently after several...

Just out of curiosity, can you blend two different colors of epoxy resin of the same type and manufacturer to create a new shade of color? What are the risks? Just wondering if I were to mix 1.5 Gallon kit of White with 1.5 Gallon kit of Green or Blue to create aqua blue/ green, will this...

Never used denatured alcohol so don't know. I had a similar problem of uncured epoxy and used Xylene. If you can put on a mask and keep the area ventilated, go for Xylene. I found it to be very strong and effective. Scotty is correct. Xylene is very strong and quite capable of knocking you over.

Scotty, Just want to mention your SD coat was perfectly compatible with planiseal VS. I know we discussed this before we decided a proper plan for my garage. The SD coat adheres very nicely to Planiseal VS. I had apprehensions but have no hestitation saying that it is fully compatible. On...

I used Mapei Planiseal VS 100% solids epoxy based moisture barrier. It is awesome. It is clear but turns amber as it dries. I used it as a base for epoxy coating. It turns rock solid and can be used on its own as long as you don't mind amber color. Or you could topcoat with colored epoxy.

Good information legacy, kudos to you! Thanks! Typically, it is impossible and impractical to use dehumidifier in a garage that has been freshly coated. Just a question - where do you expect to put the humidifier on a wet surface? Every square inch of the garage is wet and there is no space to...

I just ignore the spammers. They are so easy to spot.

Just to add, here is the link to tech data sheets from National Polymer. For starter, you could compare these to DIY suppliers' products. http://www.nationalpolymers.com/TechData-EpoxyPrimersAndCoatings.html

Agree 100% with Paul and others. I would like to add the following: 1) If you compare the tech data sheets, you will find that most reputed DIY suppliers source their products from only a handful of manufacturers. National Polymer is one of them. NP has solid products. So do your homework and...

Okay, that is what I was waiting to hear. Makes sense. Given what both Pauls' have stated and which makes sense, I have decided not to paint the rusted file cabinet with Rustoleum. I will find some creative use for the leftover Rustoleum.

I am still undecided though. I am debating between primer + metal paint spray versus leftover Rustoleum. Just asking what you guys think. I might give it a try. Yes, will post the pictures when done. thx.

lol....I agree. But I was curious about the results.

I have some leftover cheap stuff (box store garage coating - Rustoleum Epoxyshield waterbased resin and hardner ). This was leftover from a small job I finished on my basement stairs last week. I ended up buying a gallon (standard pack) of this cheap stuff on sale because the box stores didn't...

Hello folks, I have been endlessly waiting for the weather to clear-up so that I can put down epoxy in my garage. It's been a waiting game since almost a month. Who would have thought it could rain so badly in July of all months? Toronto summers especially July are pretty sunny and dry EXCEPT...
