Sears Epoxy Garage Covering/Sale

[dodgepolara500]

Got an email from Sears about their sale on all garage items including cabinets, shelfs, tool chests etc.. What caught my eye was their Weatherbeater Expoxy Garage Floor Covering.

Anyone know anything about it including who makes it. Very low price...

I was at Sears yesterday and got my 50% off stuff and was looking at a almost full rack of Weatherbeater floor covering .
I'd have to wonder since it says comes with "cleaner" what kind of cleaner they provide ? With all the talk here about proper prep and all ?
Sure be nice if someone else were the tester ! I'm more curious than anything .

Same here I will have to look around for some reviews.

Does the fact it is located in the 50% off Clearance area give you a clue??

Sears is NOTORIOUS for buying from the LOWEST bidder.

Chances are it is made by one of the major manufacturers.

I would NEVER buy it until I knew the date of manufacture. MOST companies have a 12 MO MAX shelf life.

If NO date when made or Use by. I would NOT waste my $$$$.

If over 8 mo old Mix SUPER GOOD before combining components.

The Kit is "Item Weight: 9.6 lbs."...

That means... you only get 1 Gallon which might apply at ~4.1 mils wet thickness after you wet out the roller.

THEN, the next clue is: "water cleanup" which means it's a waterbased product. So, it's probably between 40%-50% solids... maybe as high as 55%. So, once this product dries, you would have about 1.66 mils of thickness left. At the maximum of 55% solids you would have 2.25 mils.

Thickness matters!
