The simple concrete foundation in your showroom, lobby, home, hallway, or gym can appear like clouds, waves, swirling liquids, or the depths of space.
What Makes the Brilliance?
Metallic epoxies combine durable glossy top coats with pigmented undercoatings and sparkling metal or mica nanoparticles. Besides choosing different colors of floor coats, you can also opt for different colored nanoparticles for a variety of special effects. Here are some of the choices:
- Sparkle — Metallic and mica flakes are specifically known for this effect. By altering the size and number of nanoparticles, and their hues, you decide upon the resulting sparkle.
- Iridescence — Visualize the feathers of a hummingbird or a peacock and you can imagine the effect of iridescence. When applied with epoxy coatings, the floor changes color, based on the light source or viewpoint.
- Pearlescence — Akin to iridescence, pearlescence is more subtle in the color alteration effect, resembling the luster of a pearl or opals. This optical effect reminds you of looking through a prism or the vibrance of a rainbow.
- Gloss — Although sparkle is like star twinkle, gloss stands for the reflection of light from a surface. Epoxy flooring is known for creating a quality shine, but metallic flooring takes it to a completely new level! Although much is dependent on the design, maximum shine is seen with metallic floors.
- Depth — By skillfully arranging the pigment layers, bunching nanoparticles in some areas and at the same time leaving fewer in others, our team members create a sense of 3D. Depth, movement, waves, current, clouds, and more are realized by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
