Bring the beauty of metallic paint to your concrete floors with the added resilience and toughness of epoxy coatings from West Coast Epoxy. Create floors with brilliant iridescence, pearlescence, shine, depth, swirl and metallic sparkle. The simple concrete foundation in your lobby, showroom, home, hallway, or gym can look like waves, clouds, flowing liquids, or the depths of deep space.
What Creates the Brilliance?
West Coast Epoxy makes your customized metallic epoxy by combining colorful undercoatings with specially made mica or metal nanoparticles. In addition to choosing the hues of the epoxies, you also select the colors, types, and sizes of sparkling flakes. Applying these choices, here are the effects we can create:
- Iridescence — Visualize the feathers of a hummingbird and you can imagine the effect of iridescence. When applied with epoxy coatings, the floor changes color, based on the source of light or point of view.
- Pearlescence — Akin to iridescence, pearlescence is more subdued with the color change effect, resembling the lustre of abalone or pearls. This optical effect reminds you of looking through prisms or the vibrance of rainbows.
- Sparkle — Metallic and mica particles are outstanding light reflectors. Decrease or increase the sparkle by altering the size and number of nanoparticles in the epoxy.
- Gloss — While sparkle is like star twinkle, gloss stands for the reflection of light from surfaces. Epoxy flooring is known for making a quality shine, but metallic flooring takes it to a completely new level! Although much depends on the design, maximal shine is seen with metallic flooring.
- Depth — By artfully adjusting the pigment layers, collecting nanoparticles in some areas while leaving fewer in others, our craftworkers create a sense of three dimensions. Depth, movement, waves, currents, clouds, and more are realized by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
With a metallic flooring design from West Coast Epoxy, you are sure that your floor will be like no other! To find out the amazing possibilities with metallic floor coatings in Napa, contact the professional installers at West Coast Epoxy.
