2 Year Update on Epoxy Floor

[argulator]

Got my garage cleaned out and mopped over the weekend so I thought I'd get a good look at my floor after nearly 2 years. My original install post is here:http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=261203

It looks nearly identical to when installed, other than a few yellowing spots where I missed with the topcoat. Other than that, pretty much like new. Am I still happy with it-yeah, everytime I open the door. It doesn't get much abuse, just floorjacks, jackstands, brake jobs, detailing, etc. It has seen its fair share of brake fluid.

I think the full flake definitely adds toughness, and would consider a full flake single color in my detached garage, if I ever get it built.

Looks great! These are the kind of updates that people curious about epoxy need to see.

Yep, nothing better than a long term report from a forum member!

5 Year Update on Epoxy Floor

Now, 3 more years. A little more yellowing but still looks great.
A little more yellowing, mostly where I got the clear coat a little thick. When I put it down, I ordered 3 gallons of clear coat, bit the dealer rep ordered 3 3 gallons kit of clear coat. They never did ask for it back, so I ended up with 9 gallons clear coat. It ended up being really thick in spots. Most of the yellowing is where the clear coat is really thick.

Also some spots where I just completely missed with topcoat:

All in all, I'm still very happy with it-getting ready to do the same floor on a new detached garage.

I would have called and sent the surplus back or did you use all 9 gallons on your floor?

 

[argulator]

I used it all. They didn't care about getting it back.

Hey Ralph,

Is that a FJR1300 in your garage? (I own a 2005).

Yeah, a 2008. I've had it 8 or 9 years but don't ride it much.

Hmm, I can't see the pics.

Also, where did you order from?

thanks!

Weird. My pics went missing from imgur. I edited with few others.
