[@MikeDayConcrete]

Looks awesome. Same process we use to do those floors.

[@afentikos]

That's a brand new slab: isn't an acid etch sufficient?

[@saabkyle04]

I mentioned that in the video, even though it's a brand new slab, you still have to open the pores up enough for good adhesion. Will an acid etch work? Yes. However, you'll spend a lot longer, repeating the process several times, vs sanding it and getting the same, if not better results a lot quicker.

[@MikeDayConcrete]

If you acid etch you'll have to let the concrete dry for 1,2,3 days before moving to the next step. Much better to grind, better profile and faster to complete the job.

[@bpugsy719]

im certified in epoxy floor installation, and its good to see that you are having it done at least mostly right. most companies clean the floor and pour. its good to see these guys are actually mechanically prepping the surface. i haven't watched the whole thing yet, but they should take the concrete ALL THE WAY down to the ag, then they should vacuum it out really well to get the dust out of the pores, and THEN acid wash it to open up the pores more. i would have stayed away from the flakes personally because i love the look of a seamless reflective floor, and then just add extra play sand to give it a non slip surface. one of the biggest things i seen was the workers grinding the concrete without any mask or ventilator.... and allowing a customer to watch without a mask is a big no no as well. the cilica in the concrete is VERY bad for your health.

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you for sharing your experience, I'm really happy with how it turned out. The look is exactly what I was going for. Why do you assume I didn't have a face covering? You can clearly see it around my neck after the dust had settled. I can't control what others do, but rest assured I wasn't about to be in there without a face covering lol.

[@bpugsy719]

@@saabkyle04 You are right, i did make that assumption and i apologize. im glad you were being safe. i just take the masks super seriously when it comes to concrete dust, shit is toxic.

[@saabkyle04]

No worries my dude, I'm totally with you on that one. Safety should always a top priority.

[@petergillis3475]

Merry Christmas! Love from Greece! (I love how it came out!)

Thanks Peter! Merry Christmas!

[@wizardmix]

Looks fantastic, the only downside is when you drop a small bolt or washer it's gonna blend right into the contrasting colors. Otherwise that's one sexy floor.

[@saabkyle04]

Yeah you're probably right haha. I need to get one of those rolling magnet contraptions. Looks like a broom, but it's a magnet on wheels. The guys that put the building up had some.

[@saabkyle04]

Merry Christmas! Look at my last shop video, I talked about it.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

This turned out amazing. I can't decide if I'm gonna go with something like this or swisstrax or polished concrete. Can this type of floor resist oils, brake cleans, engine shampoo,etc.? Can it resist floor jacks without being indented?

[@saabkyle04]

Yes, it's supposed to be easy to clean and very resistant to chemicals, however things like battery acid and welding in close proximity can damage it. I'm not sure about the floor jacks, but I imagine it'd be ok. This coating is more durable than epoxy for high traffic areas. It's supposed to be more "flexible" to be more resistant to scratches, chips, etc.

Hey Kyle! Are you planning on putting a two post lift in this shop too? How about a mezzanine floor over one end for extra storage? (not that I think that will be a problem!) Hope you had a good christmas.

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks buddy, hope the same for you! I'm planning on putting a 4-post and a 2-post lift in the shop. As far as a mezzanine, I haven't really thought about it. That'd be cool, but I'm digging the open concept of it so far! I'll have the left side of the old shop for storage, should be plenty of space.

[@TheNephron123]

Kyle I’m in NC and met you at Lamborghini of Charlotte at their opening. I’m in the process of making a building like yours as well. What did the floor coating cost in terms of price per sq/ft? Looking great man!

[@noway234]

Looks good, but is it gonna be slick when wet?

[@saabkyle04]

No, I meant to talk about that, the color chips give it a "rough" texture. If it was totally smooth, then you'd run the risk of it being too slick.

[@hyr0llr]

Is there different options to how much flake you want on the floor? cuz these guys put so much on the floor. my garage has it to where you can count the flakes(if you wanted too) so to speak lol i guess im just asking if this is the standard from a company.

[@saabkyle04]

That I'm not sure of, this is just the way they do it. The base color "domino" came a certain way and then I added how much red "tomato" to I wanted to the mix.

[@brettburda4438]

I have the same floor with the color Domino (no red) and hardware DISAPPEARS when it hits the floor... super annoying for a shop. It looks amazing and holds up really well though.
