Our process
Prep is 80% of the floor. We don't skip it.
Cheap epoxy peels because it was rolled onto acid-etched, untested concrete. Every floor we do is diamond-ground, moisture-tested and repaired before a drop of coating goes down.
Grind
Diamond grinding opens the concrete so the coating can bite. No acid etch, ever.
Test & repair
Moisture test on every slab. Cracks routed and filled with flexible polyurea.
Base coat
Pigmented polyurea base coat, rolled and back-rolled for full coverage.
Full flake
Vinyl flake broadcast to refusal, so the floor is 100% covered, not sprinkled.
Topcoat
Clear polyaspartic topcoat. UV stable, hot-tire proof, and cures in cold weather.
Polyaspartic vs. epoxy
Why we don't install epoxy in Colorado garages
Sun through the garage door, hot tires off I-25, mag chloride all winter and 40-degree swings in a day. Epoxy ambers, softens and gets brittle under that. Polyaspartic doesn't, and it cures fast enough to install in one day, even in January.
- UV stable. Stays clear for the life of the floor.
- One day, not three. Walk on it tomorrow.
- Cures in the cold. We install year-round; epoxy can't.
- Hot-tire proof and flexible. Won't lift under tires or chip from dropped tools.

| Category | Polyaspartic (ours) | Epoxy | Edge |
|---|---|---|---|
| UV stability | UV stable. | Ambers and chalks with sun exposure. | Polyaspartic |
| Hot tire resistance | Excellent. | Good for 100%-solids; poor for water-based kits, which soften and pull up under hot tires.. | Polyaspartic |
| Install time | One day. | 2–3 days minimum. | Polyaspartic |
| Return to service | Foot traffic the next day, and vehicles back sooner than epoxy allows.. | Typically 5–7 days before parking on it.. | Polyaspartic |
| Cold-weather install | Cures down to well below freezing, so we install year-round in Colorado.. | Needs roughly 55°F+ slab temps. | Polyaspartic |
| Flexibility & impact | Stays slightly flexible; resists chipping from dropped tools.. | Harder and more brittle; can chip at edges and cracks.. | Polyaspartic |
Honest take: pro-installed 100%-solids epoxy over a ground slab is a fine indoor floor. It's just not the best material for a Colorado garage. Read the full comparison.
