Bring the beauty of metallic paint to your concrete floors with the additional resilience and durability of epoxy coatings from West Coast Epoxy. Make floors with eye-catching shine, pearlescence, iridescence, depth, metallic sparkle and swirl. The ordinary concrete floor in your showroom, lobby, home, gym or hallway can look like clouds, waves, flowing liquids, or the depths of space.
What Creates the Brilliance?
Metallic epoxies combine durable glossy topcoats with colored undercoats and sparkling metal or mica nanoparticles. Besides selecting different colors of floor coatings, you can also select different colored nanoparticles for a variety of special effects. Here are some of the options:
- Sparkle— Mica and metallic particles are superior light reflectors. Decrease or increase the sparkliness by adjusting the number and size of nanoparticles in the epoxy.
- Iridescence— Birds like peacocks have iridescent feathers. The hues of the feathers alter as either you or the bird moves in the light. When iridescence is added to epoxy coatings, it’s the floor that changes color as you stroll through the room.
- Pearlescence— Similar to iridescence, pearlescence is more subtle in the color change effect, resembling the luster of pearls, abalones or opals. This light effect reminds you of looking through a prism or the vibrance of rainbows.
- Gloss— Although sparkle is like twinkling stars, gloss means the reflection of light from surfaces. Epoxy flooring is known for creating a quality shine, but metallic flooring takes it to a totally new level! Although much depends on the design, maximum shine is seen with metallic floors.
- Depth— By skillfully shaping the pigment layers, bunching nanoparticles in some areas and leaving fewer in others, our craftworkers create a sense of three-dimensionality. Depth, motion, waves, current, atmosphere and more are suggested by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
