I did the flakes and it definitely needed a cover to hold in place. It is my understanding that the two - color base...

    Just Epoxyed My Garage With Quikrete 2 Part Epoxy

    Looking back I don't know what I could have done different to not have the "lap" marks. The video dvd that comes with it says to always keep a wet edge and i certainly did that. It doesn't really bother me though. As far as the clear coat it does make it shiny. You should add the anti skid...

    Epoxy Concrete Floor Coating
