Hi all -
I have been lurking for a while and reading past threads like crazy in preparation of putting my epoxy-coat down in the garage. It has been quite a journey and learning experience (more on that later) and this forum has been an absolute lifesaver.
My garage is cleaned, grinder and ready for the application. I planned on putting it down this afternoon. However, I am realizing that I like the look of a medium to heavy flake coating and recently discovered that what comes in the epoxy-coat kit is for a light coverage (makes sense).
Would it be okay to mix my epoxy-coat flakes with flakes from Rocksolid, Rustoleum or Valspar? I know it would be ideal to order from epoxy-coat but (despite all my planning) this a last minute idea. Before doing so I just wanted to make sure that there wouldn't be any negative effects in doing so. (With my luck the paint chips would bleed or something). If it is not a good idea I will stick with the light coating of flakes.
I will write a longer post about this project, what I learned during this process (a lot!) and some pics of the finished project later this week.
Thanks!
Chad
