Epoxy Floor Update..............

[Jsf721]

I had my Garage Floor done over the summer and I am very happy with the looks and wear to date. I had alerted the board that this floor was slightly slippery when wet.

Well today was the first snow and the floor is deadly slippery. So much so that I really think it is dangerous. The combo of snow and boots is killer deadly.

Here is the original post.

I am not sure if this can be fixed by adding more non slip powder into another coat of clear but I will be calling the company.

Beware, that added top clear coat looks nice but it also make for a very, very slippery floor. How slippery, picture a deer on a sheet of ice trying to stand slippers. It is slightly better than that.

A coat of polyurethane clear with Shark Grip or similar additive will do wonders for added grip, but you would have to wait for the temps to come up. A thin polyurea/polyaspartic will work as well and can be applied in the colder temps.

10-4, scuff, solvent wipe and coat.
Use approx 4 oz. of grip per gal of urethane.
