Bring the light of metallic paint to your concrete foundations with the added strength and durability of epoxy coatings from West Coast Epoxy. We create floors with astounding pearlescence, iridescence, shine, depth, swirl and metallic sparkle. The ordinary concrete floor in your showroom, lobby, home, hallway or gym can look like waves, clouds, flowing liquids, or the depths of deep space.
What Creates the Brilliance?
West Coast Epoxy creates your customizable metallic epoxy by combining colored undercoatings with especially made metal or mica nanoparticles. Besides selecting the hues of the epoxies, you also pick the colors, types and sizes of sparkling flakes. Applying these choices, here are the effects you can create:
- Sparkle— Metallic and mica particles are superior light reflectors. Decrease or increase the sparkling effect by altering the size and number of nanoparticles in the epoxy.
- Iridescence— Visualize the feathers of a hummingbird and you can imagine the effect of iridescence. When applied on epoxy coatings, the floor changes color, based on the source of light or viewpoint.
- Pearlescence— Similar to iridescence, pearlescence is more subdued with the color alteration effect, resembling the lustre of pearls, opals or abalones. This optical effect reminds you of looking through prisms or the vibrance of a rainbow.
- Gloss— Although sparkle is like twinkling stars, gloss stands for the reflection of light from surfaces. Epoxy flooring is known for allowing for a quality shine, but metallic flooring takes it to a totally new level! Although much is dependent on the design, maximum shine is attainable with metallic flooring.
- Depth— By artfully arranging the pigment layers, gathering nanoparticles in some areas and leaving fewer in others, our team members create a sense of 3-D. Depth, motion, waves, currents, atmosphere and more are suggested by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
