The optimal way to preserve concrete floors is to cover them with epoxy flooring. Garages are the usual space for epoxy topcoats, principally to preserve the concrete from tire marks and oil stains. One of the largest garage spaces is in truth an airplane hangar! The larger the space, the more critical it is to have a qualified and experienced installer, like the team at West Coast Epoxy in Auburn.
Epoxy Flooring — Preferred by Pilots
When you read up on what aviators like for covering their hangar floors, epoxy topcoats are continuously mentioned. Hot tires attach to concrete, but not epoxy coatings. Mechanical work causes drips and spots, but not on epoxy coated concrete. Says one pilot: “I have had an epoxy floor in my hangar going on 9 years now and it still looks new.”
Benefits of Epoxy Coats for Hangars
Because most hangars are quite sizable, providing sufficient lighting is one of their issues. Lights are installed at a high elevation to allow space for airplanes, while the planes themselves cast noteworthy shadows. Epoxy coatings help fix these issues with their high reflectivity, bouncing all available light upwards to increase visibility in the work area.
Hangars are also greatly improved by layering safety marks and parking lines right into the floor surface. This ensures such instructional markers are strong and easy to see. A range of bright and attractive colors are offered to ensure your hangar space is as secure and effectively used as possible. West Coast Epoxy also delivers the ever-critical option of adding a non-slip coating to your epoxy floor covering. That way, wet weather will not affect the traction in your hangar space.
