Epoxy advice

[gjuk]

Hi guys,

I'm going to be epoxying my new garage floor soon - I've decided on a solid 2 pak epoxy colour, probably grey.

The concrete is power floated though in ares there are the odd dips/low points.

Would it be wrong for me to just use the epoxy coating itself as a 'filler' and skim over these low points?

Otherwise, what type of product would I be looking at please?

Thanks,

Jon

so low points of x inches over x feet of an area?

No. You want to choose a product with an aggregate filler and that was intended for this purpose. Neat coatings don't make good fillers.

Liquid coatings won't do much repair or filling, even 100% solids unless special methods are used with some aggregate.

Hi - thanks guys.

Low points are areas where I 'over polished' the concrete with the power float - probably 4-7mm low in places of around 4"x6" or so.

Thanks for your replies all.

Is there a technical name for this products - concrete floor filler?

You can use products referred to as epoxy mortars or skim coats. We carry both.
