Epoxy flooring for concrete offers a tremendous array of color possibilities. First, you have the colored base coat that covers the concrete. Then comes the selection of flakes, granules, or micas to add on top of the epoxy. These all have their own specific qualities and come in solitary colors or color mixes. To finish, a clear topcoat seals everything together and protects your epoxy coat from wear, scratches, and stains. Here are some functions of each form of texture.
Flakes for Epoxy Flooring
Flakes are colored chips of a variety of sizes and materials that contrast with your base coat. You may use preset combinations of color flakes or make your own combo. With color flakes it is simple to match a wall color, sport team colors, or logo colors. You name it, we can create it! More Details
Micas
Color micas provide lustre to a floor and really make it sparkle! Visualize how granite reflects the sun, and you have the effect from mica. The Mayans valued the decorative qualities of mica, adding it to some of their temples for a dazzling effect. You may use this same technique by adding mica flakes to your epoxy floors. More Details
Colored Granules for Epoxy Flooring
Color granules are sand particles that lend texture to the otherwise smooth topcoat. This is critical for rooms with much oil, grease, water, or other slippery substances. Granules also create anti-slip for inclined floors and any location where slips and falls are potential dangers. Granules are available in solid colors or pleasing color combinations. More Details
