What flooring materials are you using? Is there still a clear coat to go on?

What top coat are you using?

I always touch up areas by first wetting them out with my top coat then sprinkling flake into it.. I use clear 2 component Polyurea. Then you can top coat it.

It’s always been suggested that you divide up your flakes and your floor space into quarters and then spread the flakes evenly. I know it’s too late for you but may help others.

just an update for anyone else who runs into this issue. since we were still within the allowable cure time for the product we ended up ordering more flakes added a second coat to the area that had less flakes and re applied the flakes nice and even. just finished topping off with a nice top coat check it out IMG-20200506-WA0004.jpg

Looks good. Glad it got fixed!

Hint...we recommend taking your total flecks and separate them into four equal containers, this way you use one container per quadrant and avoids running out.
