Hi guys just signed up on here, my industrial epoxy flooring in my home workshop is about 13 years old and needs to be redone, mostly staining, scrapes etc. the product i used back then was a Rust Oleum Industrial Coating, it was solvent based and we scarified the floor and it has worked amazing for the abuse i put it though.

I want to redo the floor again by scuffing up the current floor using a floor buffer with a red scotch brite pad. I am seeking a product that kicks and can cure super quickly for foot traffic. Can anyone suggest if such a product exist that cures in a few hours rock hard? I do not care if the coating needs to be squeegee on or a thick paint, doesnt matter but i can handle the application.

cost is not an issue for my investment here but i looked into the plastic flooring solutions and I just do not think it is right for my needs and use of the space.

I need to rent 2 storage PODS to leave outside for all the tool boxes and gear inside so i can do this. it is dead of winter where i live now and need a project to keep me sane.

any product suggestions please post them below or PM me direct.

thanks again

I just did Nohr-S in my garage and am overall happy with the results. It's been so cold the best I could do was ~60 degrees floor temperature measured with IR thermometer. It took ~3-4 hours for re-coat time (light foot traffic) and was fully cured within the ~36 hours per the instructions. It is still a little soft between the re-coat time and full cure so I didn't move anything because I was worried I would imprint the floor (you can mark it with a fingernail).

Next garage I would do full flake broadcast for easy repairs in the future (mine is heavy flaked which should be OK for repairs). I would do extra coats of clear (~3-4 total) Also I would give myself a full 2 weeks to get everything done. I got in a hurry and ended up having to go back over it and do some minor repairs (using heavier flakes to cover it up) and at the same time I put down more clear. So it took me longer than expected because I got in a rush. But it turned out even, has nice gloss and depth and dried extremely hard. Looking forward to getting my small shop back up and running.
