Pioneer Research Epoxy...Help Needed!
I was just about to paint my garage floor with RO industrial grade epoxy when some unknown epoxy fell into my lap free. My wife works as a property manager at a large high rise office building. She tells me one day that they have a whole bunch of epoxy that is 5-7 years old, that has never been used, and that I can have it. She said it originally cost 10k for about 20 gallons and that it was very expensive. I need anyone’s advice as to if this will work in my garage and if so is it worth using. Here is the info I have on it right now:
Brand: Pioneer Research, Phoenix, AZ.
Type: High Traction 100% Epoxy
Each kit comes with 2 five gallon buckets. One bucket is full of what looks like gray sand or media. The other bucket is half full of the same stuff and then has a gallon of base and a quart of activator. The instructions are very vague and say to mix the two cans together and then roll or spray on, then broadcast the media onto the surface and then leave for 24hours, brush off excess media and then re-apply if needed.
Has anyone heard of this type of epoxy? Is it basically clear and then this gray sand is what gives it ist texture and color. This isn’t exactly what I was wanting. I was looking for a glossier finish but maybe I am missing out on some great epoxy too. Anyway any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.
