Hello,
I have a really big problem and I need help/advise/recommendations!
I purchase enough epoxy-coat to complete my 750 sq.ft garage. Phase I: Prep Surface and Phase II: Apply Coating went well. However Phase III(Optional): Apply Clear Coat is a disaster. First let me say it is my fault for not completely understanding that the clear coat followed the same process as Phase II laying down the epoxy. Because the content in both containers looked the same I was under the impression it was a single stage application. Nevertheless, now I know the clear coat is the same as the color application it's just the clear does not have pigment. And of course, the small (4) individual bottles with the letters CC on the cap does not mean - Clear Cloat but someone's initials at the plant and non of the other containers had initials on them.
My delima is I poured the content of contents of bucket A and B in the same bucket. Then mixed it with the provided mixer and laid it down on top of the cured surface. Well after two days it was still sticky so I called Epoxy-Coat and was told the clear followed the same instructions as laying down the color. So I understand that I have more of Bucket A then Bucket B (hardner). They suggested buying another kit to redo the floor (with just color). But I can not justify another $500 even though it is my mistake. I also, understand the ratio for Bucket A and Bucket B is hard to determine so can I purchase hardner and roll it on top of the Resin?
The other suggestion is let is try and cure or scrap up the sticky stuff / risk damage to the floor and leave as-is. What would you do in this situation?
Thanks,
Rus
