How to Paint Your Garage Floor with Epoxy-Seal

Seal-Krete 1-part Epoxy-Seal Garage and Floor Paint application on a garage floor.

[@reddickj01]

Takes about 3 days in good weather and about 5 if you have to remove the old coat and then start the steps. Or you can pay about $1600.00 for it to be done professionally. Not as hard as you think, just a little work.

[@capnjan9835]

A lot more than that in 2022

[@maceo2012]

Should have included a close, low angle view of what each step looks like when finished. That's what most people will have anxiety about. What does satin look like? Gloss? How does it look on a deck, or a patio? We don't need close ups of different rolling angles. "Wet roller, spread evenly... It should look like this when finished. "

[@alexandranatashasahoye555]

Thank u .Good ideas great explanation on the products .I will try this on my porch and garage.

[@pnutbutrncrackers]

Man, this is a WAY bigger to-do than I was thinking.

[@VaeVictus666]

lol same here. I was thinking pick a primer, paint and done lol.

[@MrOldeastdallas]

How did it go? How did it turn out?

[@jetblu76]

Same!!

[@bluesage1528]

Wonderful explanation! Very helpful, thank you!!

[@ktmguy1462]

Used to do this for a job. Preparation is a killer. If you can afford it get a pro.

[@elizabethwetzel1238]

Whew! Makes me want to hire it out. What a process!

[@LucianoReboucas28]

this nicca said easy ...... and then said I need to buy half of home depot.

[@funforsameer1769]

Luciano Reboucas haahah

[@shaneb.3982]

Lmao

[@MaZEEZaM]

This is exactly what I was looking for :-)

[@SMoovem80]

I came really close to doing this myself, long story short, hire a pro. If you don't diamond grind the floor, it won't even last more than about 2-3 years and you'll have the floor chipping up under the tires. If you rented a diamond grinder this system would last, I think. I would have been at around 800-900 if I did on my own. I hired it out for 1900. Looks amazing.

[@Helmuesi911]

SMoovem80 You made the right choice.. did they do a 2 part epoxy on your floor? I doubt they used this stuff from the video.

[@TheOGDorothy]

This has more steps and needs more products than other concrete sealers.

[@biffbuttrammer5861]

i love these comments ... not too many supporting the initial and NONE supporting the longevity of seal crap

[@Doit79]

There's no way that this is a weekend job!!

[@UgotSprucked]

Low key just changes shirt at 6:00 lmao

[@johnnyrailroad6921]

Mine began peeling after about a week. The paint is slowly coming up either in large flakes or in small areas of a large amount of tiny flakes raisin up which can easily be swept off. The floor is not looking so good after a week of prepping and painting.I am afraid this is going to continue and I will have to do a messy job of stripping all the paint and re-coating it with something else. I'm just disappointed.

[@ronnierebhan229]

Did you add the clear seal afterwards, just curious...

[@kevinkanz3059]

do i need the ipad too!! jesus!!!

[@rareview362]

How would you be able to add more flakes later if needed if they should only be applied while the paint is still wet?

[@xxxAPEXxxx]

Add another epoxy coat then do it

[@garybrady7245]

Have to be put in wet

[@toyotamadness1962]

The best video Ive seen

[@jazmanjef]

"More time" is the one thing money can't buy ..... I'm paying someone else to do this while I go fishing with my kids.

[@johnbergeron3486]

A cheaper and more durable alternative is Spar Varnish make sure you prep your surface correctly

[@sctallgirl]

I noticed the label on seal krete says 72 hours after painting. Is it ok to out on sealer after 24 hours as stated at the end of this video? Thank you.

[@ronnierebhan229]

I wondered if the same thing, what did you do?

[@radiationsnowman]

OH MY GOD!!! FORGET THIS!!! LOL,,,,,,,,,,THERE ARE 'MORE' STEPS HERE TO FOLLOW THAN ALL OF THE STEPS ON A STAIRWAY THAT WOULD LEAD UP TO HEAVEN ITSELF! LOL,,,,,,FORGET THIS! LOL

[@ronnierebhan229]

The Can says wait 78 afters after painted before putting clear seal. Thoughts?

[@cornholius]

Can epoxy seal be applied over a water based concrete sealer?

[@ronnierebhan229]

I did today, ill let you know...

[@neil8329]

Why can you not put clear grip into the gloss when you have put flakes on? This is causing me a lot of trouble because I can't figure out what to buy since nobody can answer this. My parents are getting older and I need to have some type of anti-skid on the gloss to make sure they do not slip in the winter (or when it rains), but I'd also like to have the flakes to make the garage floor look more professional. Any help would be much appreciated!

[@caswellsubs]

1. put the base color coat down and sprinkle the flakes in. Let it dry and lightly brush/blow off excess flakes. 2. Apply the clear coat and immediately sprinkle in the grip aggregate and run the roller over the wet clear with the grip aggregate. This will embed the aggregate into the clear coating and stop it from lifting out under normal use. Mae sure the particles are about 1/2 - 1" apart. To much will make it hard to clean.

[@garybrady7245]

You can sprinkle Plat sand in it too

[@ILC-eo6vk]

Good video, but I'm going to diamond grind mine.

[@natee2169]

Do you really need a primer and then a sealer to!? Sounds overkill compared to other vids I’ve seen

[@bigdaddygru]

I was thinking the same thing. He seems to be using a lot of unnecessary stuff, but didn't use a diamond grinder that I've seen others say you need to use. All the other videos said sweep the floor, wash it, let it dry, apply a coat, let it dry, apply a second coat and done! Pretty simple! Watching this video and I'm like dang I'm going to spend $400 buying 5 different chemicals for just a garage floor?!

[@natee2169]

@@bigdaddygru Yeah exactly! And then it still won’t come out right! 😭

[@chillifish4896]

Was interested in buying this to do it for my room... until I saw this vid. Then I read all the comments by users. Moral of the story: Take a man who paints and does manual labour in a long sleeved shirt and pants, with a pinch of salt. LOL.

[@sdquest]

Good Lord, aren't there people for that. It seemed like a good idea until i saw this video.

[@mermaid30019]

I was thinking the same, many steps.

[@davisdenae]

sdquest I'm still going to try, but that is alot of steps.

[@charlielarson6276]

Yes there are but it costs thousands. Literally.

[@joellehosette818]

Im wondering if you could do this on underlayment wood .

[@garybrady7245]

I've used it on wood it worked great

[@JohnPowersComedy]

Weird, I thought this was about Epoxy-Seal. It just seems like a 7-minute advertisement for 10 other Seal-Krete products. Next time, give us a 30-second video on the product we are interested in.

[@andremessi1]

good job body!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnnytwotimesya9032]

Sweep the floor buy paint then sealer that’s it

[@afmorris5939]

according to epoxy seal instructor flakes added to paint cannot be covered with clear grip? I would like both flakes & non slip. What do you suggest?

[@natee2169]

It said the flakes make it non slip

[@garybrady7245]

Put the flares in while the clear is wey

[@MrPink2024]

*Is this a cleaning video or a painting video?*

[@sancheztenorzacatecano9009]

Can i use it over painted concrete?

[@gregcook96]

I’m just spray paint some shit on my floor and be done , fuck all this

[@gacyx6802]

This is not a weekend job, don't care what you say. More like a week!

[@drexellake4051]

LOL For a tard maybe.

[@pimpster8651]

+J Gadberry I agree, Tom

[@crunchb3rry]

This product goes overboard by a country mile compared to so many easier garage floor restoration methods. This guy is like "If there were more than 400 drops of rain that day, or your spaghetti noodles don't stick to the floor correctly, it's not going to work right." And there's the suggestion that you buy more shit from the same company before you even open up the box of the shit your bought, and then are advised to buy more shit after you're done. And did he seriously say there was nanotechnology in their product? We're talking about a garage floor, right?

[@pieterdupreez8355]

What was the video clip all about? Such a beautiful man :-) Couldn't focus at all :-)

Summary of comments: "do I really have to do it right? Oh, shit, I'm too frickin' lazy to prepare it properly. This is H A R R D D Dah!!!"

[@Maxdouble07]

You don’t have to buy all this stuff.....he’s just trying to sell it. You just need to clean it.... seal cracks and apply A and B together. Let it dry 24 to 48 hours.

[@stephenlacher5460]

And sell before it comes up.

[@Helmuesi911]

Max Where do you see A and B ... that’s two part epoxy. This stuff used in the video is just some bullshit

[@shanegriffith5948]

just clean your floor and paint the shit on. You don't have to do that prep bs. He's just trying to sell you more shit you don't need.

[@brandonkoch3852]

If your just going with the attitude of who cares i got paid.then walk away,sure that works.but if you guarantee your work.when it starts to peel off in weeks to a month and you back your work.you will have some pissed off customers and lose clients.or spend hours of free labor fixing it. Prep is the biggest part of any paint job.if you dont know that.your finished product will definitely show it.

[@robertswift6101]

way too much work for a garage floor

[@BlackTopBoondocker]

I didn't wait 24 hours before sealing the floor. Did I ruin it?

[@SnyderTools]

BlackTop Boondocker how does your floor look now after four months?

[@ronnierebhan229]

Let us know, did you ruin it?

[@BlackTopBoondocker]

@@ronnierebhan229 I did a bar area still looks great

[@ronnierebhan229]

Ok, thanks, I just finished my painting yesterday, was wondering how long to wait to clear seal

[@MrSeadoobie]

:14 "ready to use, one part..." 40 steps and 4 days and 5 more products later... no thanks.

[@aux1z11]

Would this hold up parking my jet on a floor painted with this stuff ?

[@stephenlacher5460]

Yeah, but you might scuff it with your toy boats.

[@ronnierebhan229]

If you have a jet, hire a pro to paint your floor. Dumb

[@bracsim]

I painted my driveway with the same brand 2 weeks ago, followed everything step by step and 2 weeks later the paint is peeling off, this is a joke, don't waste your money in this, better to use some kind of acid stain that will bond better to the concrete and some clear coat or sealer after, but this seal krete epoxy seal is nothing but a joke. I will never buy this product again.

[@dirtdart81]

This product says it is for garages, not driveways. If you followed garage directions, you didn't do it right.

[@bracsim]

Typical uses:garage,shop floors,pool decks,walkways, "driveways" carports,patios, porches,basements, read the gl label, I did.

[@gacyx6802]

Driveway? Guess you cant read.

[@bracsim]

Gacy x you get pay for the propaganda, im not, the product does not work the way it should plain and simple, if somebody else want to try it, go for it, im done with it, i will never buy it again.

[@jmuduke99]

Or just hire somebody to do it.

[@KoiPondPeppy]

Etching? Forget it. Can't somebody make a concrete paint you just paint on after washing the concreate? Holy crow.

[@garybrady7245]

You only have to etch if concrete is real smooth
