Do you install epoxy or polyaspartic coatings?
We install a Hybrid high-performance polyaspartic coating. Our coating is a two component, low odour, hybrid polyaspartic coating system designed as a decorative yet durable coating for residential, commercial and industrial use.
How long does the installation take?
Almost all installations take 1 day. Some larger commercial installs may need additional days for prep.
When can I use my garage floor after installation?
You can walk on your floor after 24 hours and drive on it after 48 hours.
Will road salts or oil leaking from my car damage the coating?
No. The floor is made to withstand road salts, motor oil and most other fluids that typically could leak from your vehicle.
Can this product be installed in places other than my garage?
Yes. This product can be installed to any smooth concrete surface.
Can you fix the cracks in my concrete?
Yes. We fill any cracks or holes prior to the flooring installation.
What is the difference between epoxy and polyaspartic flooring?
Polyaspartic flooring is more durable, flexible, and UV-resistant than epoxy. It also cures much faster, allowing for same-day installation, and resists yellowing, stains, and abrasions better than epoxy coatings.
How do I maintain my new polyaspartic flooring?
Maintaining polyaspartic flooring is simple—regularly sweep or mop to remove dirt and debris, and use a mild cleaner for spills. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to keep the surface looking new.
Are epoxy or polyaspartic floorings slippery?
Both coatings can be slippery when wet, but polyaspartic coatings can be customized with anti-slip additives to improve traction, making them safer for high-traffic areas. Our decorative chip styles provide more traction than traditional epoxy.
Which is better for outside—epoxy or polyaspartic flooring—and why?
Polyaspartic flooring is the better choice for outdoor applications because it is UV-resistant and won’t yellow or degrade under sunlight, unlike epoxy, which can become brittle and discolored over time.
What is the best flooring for a garage?
A hybrid polyaspartic coating is one of the best options for garage flooring because it’s highly durable, resistant to chemicals and abrasions, and cures quickly for a seamless, long-lasting finish. Coastal Garage Finishings is a locally owned and operated flooring company on Vancouver Island that provides this type of flooring.
What is the best material to put on a garage floor?
Hybrid polyaspartic coatings are superior to traditional epoxy or paint, offering better durability, UV stability, and resistance to stains, impact, and wear.
What is the cheapest way to make a garage floor look good?
A budget-friendly way to improve your garage floor’s appearance is applying a concrete stain or floor paint, but these options lack the durability of professional coatings. If you want the job done right, contact our team at Coastal Garage Finishings at (250) 228-7768.
What is the cheapest way to level a garage floor?
Using a self-leveling concrete compound is an affordable way to fix uneven areas before applying a more durable coating like hybrid polyaspartic.
What’s the best garage floor paint?
Epoxy-based floor paints are better than standard latex paints for garages, but they still lack the long-term durability, chemical resistance, and adhesion of a hybrid polyaspartic coating.
What is better than epoxy for a garage floor?
Hybrid polyaspartic coatings outperform epoxy in durability, UV resistance, cure time, and flexibility, making them a superior choice for long-lasting garage floors.
