Epoxy Clear coat, still feel chips

[JohnnyCornbread]

Hello, we just spend a long time cleaning our garage and putting epoxy on the concrete.... we added chips and then the clear coat....

Everything looks great;however, we can still feel the chips even with the clear coat and they are very sharp..... we just did it and have everything out of the garage in hopes we can fix this.... please help and let us know how what we can do so we can use our garage again. Thank you so much for your help.

Did you scrape the chips before you put the clear on?

Thats the first question. The second is how much clear and what type. If it was me I would sand the first coat lightly and put on another coat.

I had the chip flooring done a few years back, I can feel some "roughness" of the chips after the clearcoat. I feel like it does give some additional grip but doesn't feel sharp.

It took me 3 clear coats to fully cover the chips and I scraped after application.
