    yes we have MSDS sheets available, that's a law, but MSDS won't tell you the chem assay, that's not required in a MSDS, they only need to list hazardous components. If you look at Flexmar's (poly aspartic) MSDS you can see its highly flammable, a clue that it has solvents, you can compare flash...

    interesting, , I am not sure what the author of the article means by similar system, most likely that it can be done in 24 hours. the PG formula does not have any solvents in it, and I know its not a polyaspartic, it 0 VOC, but it is a urethane. problem is PG corporate only shares so much with...

    Sorry, it was on the first part of this discussion, my bad it wasn't you it the post just above yours (JD in DFW). Sorry about that, anyway, our system is actually a hybrid urethane polymer system, not a Polyaspartic (invented by Bayer). I know Flexmar's system is Polyaspartic, from my...

    I agree with you, I also get incensed when some one makes a broad claim that a competitors product is ****, like when I saw your post saying Premier=****. But I can see where you are coming from if you have a competitor that says the same about you, happens to me all the time. More so on...

    We usally charge $1.00 a sq ft extra, but it all depends on location, etc. There is really no profit in the extra layer of topcoat if you have a 400 sq ft garage $400 will barely cover labor, fuel and materials. We mainly do this to keep happy customers. I did my best friend's floor this way...

    aleicgrant, Makes total sense. You should ask your local PG company who did the job. Does the floor look close to the samples they showed you? The pics on the web site are somewhat old and its possible they used more topcoat. All floors will vary. There are a few things that will effect this...

    Thanks for the post Final Finish Flooring. No offense taken. Just a few notes to your last post. PremierGarage warranties are decided by the specific franchisee, we can offer what ever type of warranty we like, 5 or 10 years is typical in my area, for example we give a 10 year warranty, its not...

    missed this quote...who said that? Actually when you buy a PG franchise, they are very clear the business focus is residential garages, not anything else. It will work in other applications but you are taking a risk if you go outside this arena. I have a chemical engineering background and have...

    Sorry don't get excited. I never said what you quoted, we (my business) do use a vapor barrier when needed, its not manufactured by Premier, we use many other materials not manufactured by Premier. If we have a need and Premier does not supply it they are fine with us using other products in...

    Just one more clarification, this lawsuit is a claim by the plaintiff(s). Doesn't really mean any of it is true, its the plaintiffs claim. All I can say is it's not close to any experience we had with PremierGarage Corporate.

    Premier Garage

    Interesting everyone knows so much about PremierGarage, especially their competitors (Garage Guy and Final Floor). As a PG franchise owner I can tell you Arizona Polymer is not PG's coating supplier, at least not since 2005 when we purchased our franchise. I am sure you both have fine products...

    Failed the "water drop" test in a few problem areas. :(

    Another solution to your oil spot. Take some ZEP purple degreaser (available at your local Home Depot). Pour a puddle of degreaser on the oil spot, full strength, don't dilute it per the instructions. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then scrub the spot. We use a large floor machine with a scrub...

    What do you guys do for a garage sound system..??

    Working on my garage remodel now, I have used this system in my home for several years. www.sonos.com I plan on buying two nice ceiling mount speakers and a Sonos amp/receiver to extend it to the Garage. I have been super happy with it, we started out with the 2 zone kit and since have expanded...

    epoxy/polyurea/other question for outdoors

    I agree with the others as far as recommending a stain with a sealer. I have done some outdoor patios with a garage floor coatings, they have been holding up for years with no yellowing, I personally don't like the look on a patio, but we did it because that's what the customer wanted. As far...

    Thinking of part racedeck and part epoxy?

    I think Jabberwalk was referring to floor coatings in general. PremierGarage was founded in 1999. PG typically takes prospective franchisees to homes where they have coatings that have been down ~10 years, these floors were done with there epoxy at the time. PremierGarage hybrid polymer was...

    Like Jason I own a PremierGarage franchise in California. We have been putting down our Hybrid Polymer floors since they came out (3.5 years). Prior to 2005 PremierGarage use to do epoxy. We average over 150 garage floors a year. In this amount of time I have had probably 2-3 failures (lifting...

    options for floring in a welding / fab shop

    most epoxy floor coatings will not hold up to hot metal slag etc., plus the abuse like you said. you could stain it, but most sealers for stained floors require maintenance check out www.elite-crete.com I use their products for staining floors and sealing

    Cracks developing in garage slab

    Doesn't matter how hard the surface under the concrete is, the clay/soil and cement are two different materials with different coefficients of thermal expansion. Depending on the width and depths of the cracks, you may want to saw cut the floor about 25% of the slab thickness (if it doesn't...
