Holy shit - what a job. I’m exhausted just from watching this. I cannot believe how much work this entails.
I cannot believe one guy did this floor. Impressive and definitely not as easy as he made it look. 👍🏻
I couldn't tear myself away. I never got bored watching this.
I would just like to say at 42:49, the clip holding the bucket upside down to get all the material all out....GENIUS!!! Totally stealing that trick.
You are an absolute pro my friend...There is no way in hell I could've done that without taping it all off.
Beautiful! I have a whole new appreciation and respect for the work that goes into installing flake floor.
I watched the whole video , I do a lot of my work myself too (Painter/Carpenter) , but I was very impressed with you doing that job alone .... and i too have noticed a very strange thing about Garages .... No matter which way the wind is blowing , it is always blowing INTO the garage , never fails !!!!! lol .... Anyway , tons of respect to you for that job well done ..... ALONE .... You should have heard me when you "stopped and checked your phone" , I yelled "DUDE that craps settin up man !!!!" lol .... But you're all casual about it .... That's a pro
My knees are hurting watching this.
Excellent tutorial. Narrative, explanation and video work were as good as the final product!
I truly hope people can appreciate the level of detail and labor that goes into such a project. Well done.
Yeah, and as a contractor I do wish people understood how much time, how many special tools, and how many disposable items go along with it! You can't believe how much Brow Beating we get when quoting a retail price!!!!
The installation on a two stall should be $2500. That's 1.5 men for 2.0 days average. Or 1 man 2.5 days.
@@greg4673 for material and labor, that sounds about right.
@@greg4673 You're nuts. The material alone is close to $2k. Not only that, you couldn't pay me enough to spent 8 hours on my knees grinding 250lbs of coating and dust off a garage floor. Plus the fact that breathing that epoxy and xylene fumes from cleaning your tools will at worst shorten your life and at best melt your brain cells. Find another way to make a living while your still young.
@@greg4673 3 days. grind n prep, thick coating of base coat. blind with flake. Tip, light mist with water to level out vinyl flake. Blow and or vac excess next day. I'm liking 2 pac but moisture cure is fine. 2 uv stable top coats with little 80-120 Carborundum in last coat .
Your expertise is frankly amazing. I know many people will want to copy you, but after seeing the level of professionalism I would want to hire you.
Your not in New England right or yeah I would consider having you come and do the work
@@catistrolling7333 No I'm in old England. Specifically Newcastle upon Tyne, which is a city on the North East coast where Hadrian's Wall starts.
What a great tutorial. Informative and presented in such an easy to understand manner. Great job done by a pro!
What a amount of work, great job kid!
Wow you did an amazing job. I know through experience the first time I did this I learned from my mistakes. The prep work and planning is crucial along with decisions on the various options of products to use. Great job!
I particularly enjoyed the Easy To Install Single Component-part.
I really appreciate you showing all the details , including cleaning. It really helps us get a realistic idea of everything we can run into and how much time it was take a beginner VS a pro like you!
Again! Thank you! 🙏🏽
If I do my floors you are my first choice of system to use!
It`s fantastic.It`s what I wanted for a floor to my place.I now know how they go about making such a floor finish.Thanks a lot for the video.
Wow! You did a beautiful job! I really enjoyed watching you work...very professional and clean!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻excellent!!! I just retired from commercial painting. I started my company 35 yrs ago. I live in southeast alaska on an island. Everything you showed in your how to is years of experience talking. I remember when I first started how I got things wrong. However over the years your learn. My brother and I have a saying “cant buy experience “. I appreciate the time you take to film and show. Yes that product looks to be the best. Thank you for sharing
Love the kneely cart. Genius.
Thank you. This has been an extremely useful demonstration. I'm grateful that you went over every detail and explained it completely. I'm considering this installation for a locker room floor, by the way because i think i can control the floor friction fairly well.
If you have any questions on preparation, materials or installation, please let me know. Jason@concretefloorsolutions.com
Absolutely beautiful! Love the transformation- never gets old. Your video work is really good
That flooring should be a given with every new house build! Beautiful look!😊
You just showed how important preparation is for proper adhesion and longevity. You cant stress that enough. I am a bit surprised you used a small hand grinder for such a large area. I have done 2 floor coatings now and both times I rented what looks like a floor buffer with a grinding disc attachment. The grinding disc looks similar to the one on your grinder only larger. I can grind a 1.5 car garage floor in under 1 hour. No need to be crouched down and leaning over. But I do like that wheeled contraption you used. And the floor turned out beautiful. Thanks for the video.
He mentioned at the beginning that his driveway was too long to get his trailer up there. He has probably ground over 100,000 sq. ft. of concrete and obviously did most of that with large grinders.
Cheers,
Alan Tomlinson
What a tremendous tutorial, thank you very much! Small suggestion for anyone else less experienced taking on this project, as a precaution I would suggest covering the drains.
My son had this done in his 3 car garage and the results were AMAZING.
Great video. Very thorough explanation of the product, the process and details to help out the first timers. Thank you so much for sharing.
Back in the late 70’s I worked for a commercial flooring company in Michigan for about 5 years that did an enormous amount of this kind of commercial/industrial flooring mostly in boiler rooms, mechanical rooms in large high rise buildings, fire department equipment areas.
For most large areas we mostly used a walk behind scarfire machines, small rooms and inside corners just like you did we used a cabled grinder. One thing we did in like boiler rooms is we flashed the transition between the wall and floor with like a 1” wide 45 degree angle haunch as a seal for moisture.
I really like the strip you used on the wall… never saw that before. Great video.
Outstanding work and great video - so much practical knowledge gained from experience doing these projects!
I like your delivery. As a solo instructor some of the video issues are to be expected, but given the challenge you did a really good job on the video. You used some terms I was not sure what they meant (I am not in your business a DIYer). Overall a really good job and for my purposes found it to be very helpful. Thank you.
Outstanding video! You didn't miss a thing, and everything described in appropriate detail.
Audience, Man that looks amazing and that's what I want for my three garages. Kudos🤜🏼🤛🏼✌🏼.
My parents house was built in 1967 and most of the floors were done in a continuous flooring, it was called Targanol I believe, It was an epoxy coating, white first then clear then flakes with different colors for each room. then sanded and coated with two coats of clear, it was very tough after thirty years showed very little wear, but was easily brought to new appearance in wear areas. I was 14 at the time. It is still there and still looks good. Looked very much as this does. That was 55 years ago.
Thanks for sharing.
a brilliant job Sir, you worked very hard for a lovely result. cheers from NZ
Now I know how much work is involved. Thanks. Looks great.
Dagon that looks rich !!! It really changed the look of the whole room. Nice job now iam going to see about doing my floor.
... Simply most therapeutic to watch 🥰😎 🇬🇧🇨🇦
I did a "Flexmar" polyaspartic about 15 years ago in my basement. The 20min pot life was a booger, I would have never attempted it by myself. I had a buddy and we got it done and done right but it was tough. Once you mixed it was go go go. This product looks way easier to deal with.
The end result is the reward for a lot of back breaking work, if ever you pay someone to do this for you, will know they earned every penny
Great video, I like how you take your time explaining everything for dummies like me…..
Greeat job, great video. Intense detail super well explained. Thank you I enjoyed it so much. I'm never going to have it done, but I watched your video for the entertainment and knowledge. Thanks.😊😊
Beautiful work and very informative! 👍🏻👏🏼
Beautiful, skillful work and well explained. Thank you
Absolutely love the DG-150 used so many different types over the years with the tile trade but these are so impressive .
Couldn't agree more!
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions
I have a quick question, can you apply this? Epoxy to a plywood floor?
I have a 14x20 ft steel building with plywood flooring that I am turning into a woodworking shop.
Would this epoxy finish be a good choice?
@@ke4uyp Yes, it absolutely would work. The only issue you may have is if the joints move, it may crack on the joints.
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions I don't believe that'll be a problem because I weigh 386 lb and this floor is 3/4 inch plywood on 24-in centers and it doesn't even move with my weight walking on it.
If you use acetone in a spray bottle and spray the trowel and cove base I think you will be much happier with the amount of ease it puts on doing this type of installation
Hope it helps! Good work
Thank you so much for showing how it is done, quotes I've had to have my tiny 25 square meter apartment are crazy so your video will certainly encourage me to do it myself! Subscribed, liked and commented!
Fabulous job and you are a very hard worker and you are very good at what you do so I’m impressed and I know never doing this it wouldn’t turn out as good but you made a really nice detailed video and thank you for sharing
I love your little buggy ,looks like a great back and knee saver.
Where was it purchased
You made this look so easy that other videos. I’ll be following this for my garage 🙂
Wow... what a lot of work, what a great professional job!
Beautiful floor!
Thank you for demonstrating as one person doing the job.
Beautiful and well explained. Bravo. 👍
The calculation of how much coverage per batch and the amount of time spent grinding are very helpful parts of this video.
Like all nice looking jobs, 90% is preparation and 10% is installation. Thank you for showing us just how much goes into a beautiful floor. I think your prices are worth every penny.
Thanks for watching, appreciate the feedback.
Bravo--that floor is absolutley gourgous!!!!!
finally a person on youtube actually grinding the paint off of concrete..... - i work in epoxy resin flooring and it baffles me so many popular youtubers just pour over paint
FANTASTIC JOB BUD 👍👍LOVE THE FINISH 👍👍
Funny, I came across this product in 1996. The guy was doing this in Quebec and i even did a few jobs with it in winnipeg in 99. all outside work....still stands up to this day!
Are you sure? This is epoxy after all! 🤔Not very recommended for outside work .
@@cyberfandvd positive, I still go by some of the jobs every now and again.... and we have northern canada winters
Excellent tutorial! Your heart and soul is also in that floor but also in your business! May God bless your efforts and may you have a happy life! Best wishes from North Wales.
Thank you for watching, and the words of encouragement.
Wow great work. Doing the poor man's route of a gloss sealer for an external garage. You being very generous with the flakes seems to have helped a lot.
12 years ago I got brave and did the cheap Home Depot version of this. Wasn't happy with the results and it wore off where the car tires traveled over. You are so right about you get what you pay for.
in addition, good prep is essential. Especially his scoring of the cement under the existing coating. Excellent video. Obviously, earplugs are a must! That mobility cart is cool, knee pads would be good to have during the initial coping work.
The problem with the DIY kits is that they include half the amount used in a professional kit. Plus, they are water-based. So when the water evaporates, you have a surface that's only .25% as thick as a professional kit. That's a fact that they don't explain with those DIY kits. If you want a flake kit, the DIY kit only has 10lbs or so of flake, and a pro kit is 50-100lbs up to 200lbs of flake depending on the Mfg etc.
You did a great job l really loved it
Beautiful floor! It’s a lot of work but worth it, especially if proper procedures can be followed. Like anything, people have to be willing to follow the rules.
Great presentation! I am happy I paid to have it done by professionals.
Looks great. Back in the 50s they used to put floors like this inside homes. I don't know what type of materials they used then, but they would last forever. You just made the garage floor prettier than my kitchen counters.
That flooring system is called Terrazzo. Only used in airports and people with unlimited funds. About €90/ square foot installed. If you can find the right people.
At that time back concrete flooring type Terrazzo was made from Cement concrete mixed with marble (black;white;hazel;brown) flakes(small cubic partials of marble). After that polishing with machine...very dirty work at that time back 😉🙃🙂😉
great video and beautiful job!
Excellent, very informative, and great advertising, thank you
Wow, this was an excellent video. I actually feel like I could do this. Was a bit confused about the scraping after the flake, but it was cleared up later when you vacuumed up the excess.
If you feel like tackling the project yourself, please reach out to me directly jason@concretefloorsolutions.com
I will be more than happy to guide you
I loved this video. It was satisfying seeing the Job to it's completion along with the explanation.
Thanks for watching
Wow!!! What a transformation!!!
Very informative! Keep up the good work.
When my parents had their house built in 1973, they made certain that the foundation where the garage door touches down and outward was 1 inch below the garage floor. Then when the driveway was poured they made certain that it started 1 inch below where the garage door touches. That way there is a 2 inch drop in 2 parts from the garage floor to the driveway. Then the driveway has an 8 inch drop from the garage to the end of the driveway. Water has never gotten past the garage door to the garage floor.
Good planning
With over 30 years supervision as a site manager in Australia building clean rooms, laboratories, food processing rooms and abattoirs I have seen many different types of epoxy floors from flake types in laboratories, 6mm high build in clean rooms were finish epoxy was rolled using rake rollers to remove air pockets ,2mm-3mm layers of epoxy paints or 10mm shureshield using multiple sizes of sand and epoxy mix and trowelled on, used mainly to floors were different types of acids and alkaline that can attack the concrete floor to high wear areas ie abattoirs floors were we start with the concrete using 40mpa (I think 7000+psi) strength adding Caltite water proofing to the concrete mix (double the cost of the concrete) then finishing with 3mm-4mm epoxy chips trowelled into the top of the concrete and finished with trowelling machine 3 to 4 times this becomes a hard wearing floor One of the problems we had in high wear areas using epoxy roller types finishes were forklifts would drop there tynes on the epoxy which would break up the epoxy like ( pothole in a road) water would get under the epoxy the forks would push the water like a wedge and the epoxy would come up in sheets The way we did expansion joints was clean the inside edges of the joint with a saw fill the joint with a stiff sand epoxy mix do the floor finish then cut the joint install a backing rod and finish with a good quality joint filler The correct way to do an expansion if the gap is 10mm wide the backing rod is down 10mm making the bottom of the sealant concave up and the top of the joint will concave down this means that in the middle is the thin part of the sealant this allows the joint to stretch without breaking away from the edges
U need to do a video, if you haven't already.
Gordon, that wasn’t very detailed, could you expound on that more ? 🤪 ( Just kidding, nice job ).

@@davidbaldwin1591 Good suggestion.
@@davidbaldwin1591 I was thinking he needs to do a video. %100
A super and easy to follow video. Thanks
Awesome video and finished product!! Thanks!
it's about time somebody brought that coating back my dad had that put down in his garage in 73 and it still looks good
Nice job! I just had my garage floor done & its gorgeous. The cove looks great but in watching you, they must hav done it differently bc I can see the bottom of the drywall altho its higher than it was. Its like they cut it. They also used a huge sander that you walk behind. Also, there were a few areas around the perimeter, in front of laundry room door, that hurt to walk on with bare feet. I guess they sanded it down wen they fixed it? I went with Grey/Black bc those are the colors of my house.
If the drywall wasn't firmly attached to something all along the bottom, then they did the right thing IMO.
Long work u did a wonderful wonderful job do appreciate watching from Toronto
Beautiful work with great details. Well done.. Good teacher. Thanks.
I'm still waiting to get to the easy part. Turned out great
I am still on the fence about the splash guard.
If I have a regular one and I need to affect repairs.
I know I can replace a section and it looks good as new.
This video needs a companion vid showing how "easy" repairs are.
a shot blaster with vacuum works incredibly fast. we use them on bridge decks prior to applying epoxy.
Shotblasters don't work too well on Coatings, the shot bounces off it. We have a 480 V shot blaster, but it is too big to work in small areas like that.
What's a bridge deck???
@@shandelebroyles1099 the concrete road surface on a bridge.
Wow! I loved watching this!
Great job loved your work
43 seconds in it is already not "easy to install."
Cove sucks but easy once you do a few. After about 20 jobs you can almost do it blind but the fist 10 are always fails lol
I see nothing about this that’s “easy”
I would love it if he'd come and do this to my garage & basement floor in NC.
I used a dual component Polyaspartic coating on garage floors for a number of years and found that even if you mixed partial amounts and resealed the cans, the cans could only be opened one more time because the tops would seal to the can and you would have to cut the lids open. It worked well as a sealer but you needed to wear a respirator during mixing and application. And if the cottonwood was blowing ... not fun. If your tires are hot leave the car outside until they cool before parking inside the garage.
Hot tires won't be a problem on this material. thanks for watching.
Any garage floor coating that you can not park on with hot tires is BS, I would get rid of it or just let it go to shit because if you can't park in your own garage after driving in the summer what good is having a garage.
@@phillhuddleston9445 agreed 100%, as per the answer above, hot tires are not a problem with this coating.

Thanks for tutorial. Great job.
SO Beautiful!!! Nice work!! I am curious how this type of floor holds up to someone who works on automobiles and has a lift installed? Also how does it compare to whatever the box store like home depot does on their floors?
These are extremely durable floors designed for working environments. I have a very similar system in my exterior garage with a lift. Here is a link to the video:
Experimenting With A No Prep Epoxy Floor On Broom Finished Concrete. Urethane Topcoat Install.
czcams.com/video/IK26uMFgj9M/video.html
Here is a link to the system I installed:
concretefloorsolutions.com/product/500-sq-ft-complete-epoxy-flake-floor-kit/
I almost forgot to mention, these floors are 30 mils thick, big box store epoxy is water-based and put down at 2 mils thick. Our floors are 15 times thicker. Yes they cost more, but you get what you pay for.
i think if you pulled the bottom sections of the garage door rails off it would be really clean look. I had very rusty bottoms on my door rails so i removed them and cut off about a 1/4" inch, painted them and left them of when they coated my floor. So now they sit above the floor with less of a chance of water wicking up the rails like before.
I agree, I cut them off 1/2-3/4 of a inch. Easier to clean and do your work. A Zip disk you can easily do them in place
Good tip, thanks for sharing
looks a nice job, congratulations on keeping control of what looks like potentially a very messy job 😊👍
Absolutely outstanding!!
I am curious if the 2 products you used on your garage floor had bad fumes associated with them. My experience with epoxy products is that they have warnings not to breathe in the vapors. You did an expert job on the floor and the results were great. I do have a catalog from Concrete Floor Solutions myself. So many products to fix just about any problem on a concrete floor but also a bit expensive so be prepared for that.
He doesn't need to be prepared, he's the owner.
We have the same system in our 4 car garage. I don't know if is the same prep liquid used prior to the flakes, but our entire garage has a faint chocolate smell now...and you can still smell it a year later. Smells great!
How about a modified (or not) hand held seed spreader to disperse the flake? I don't think you'd have to widen the spreader outlet, as the settings get pretty large anyway. With some trial it would sure give an even dispersal.
Wish you lived here in Ottawa Canada. The people that did mine screwed it up ROYALLLLLLY! Great video and well-done sir.
A first class result...nice one matey.
I'd really like to do that in my garage. The main thing I am not sure about is what I should use to prep the floor. It was previous painted but it is very thin and flaking/peeling off. I'm good using buffers and wood floor sanders so I think I can handle whatever I need to use if I can just figure out what that is and where to get it.
Here is a link to our floor kits:concretefloorsolutions.com/product-category/epoxy-floor-kits/
Prep work is the most important part. You must achieve a clean scratched concrete surface or NO material will bond properly.

I always thought there would be some sort of single component eventually. The hardners always gets catalyzed if any air gets to it. How long have you been using this product, and how durable is it?
Working time on this material is excellent. You get approximately 30 minutes of working time, a little longer if it's cooler, a little shorter if it's hot.
Recoat time is approximately three hours, again, a little less if it's hot a little more if it's cool.
Here is a link to the data sheet for the material. Believe it or not it actually is equal or more durable than most two component polyaspartics:

How is that a single component??? You have to mix each coat, don't you??? If you have to mix something together, that's not a single component. Unless I'm not understanding what you are talking about???
@@shandelebroyles1099 The top coat is a single component material. You open the can and pour it on the floor.
The base coat is the same single component material also, but if you want to add color to it, you add the color and stir it in. It is not a Hardner, it is a color.
Both single component, no hardners added.
@@shandelebroyles1099 Basically... First coat could be applied with no additive, making it a single component product. It sets and cures by itself. Color is simply an allowable additive to achieve the desired look, Color is not needed just wanted. Several components to the complete process used here though :)
