Epoxy Flooring Fort Myers, Bonita Springs & Naples

There is a great deal of mis-information regarding floor coatings. So prior to you getting barraged with a whole bunch of technical details I want to cover a few aspects of floor coatings. No matter what system you decide to use the most important step is the preparation. All manufacturers have a specification on how the concrete should be prepared prior to application. Mechanical grinding is generally accepted to provide by far and away the highest quality garage coating surface.

Non-Mechanically Grinded

• Paints & H&C Stains (Bottom of the barrel in terms of protection)
• toppings & tile (Next step up as they offer a little more protection)
• Traditional builder grade two part epoxy (High VOC's, 4-5 days to cure, Hot Tire Pickup)

Mechanically Grinded

• Urethanes (High VOC's, Primarily Industrial applications, Multiple Coatings & take a long time to cure)
• Ultra fast curing epoxy with built in vapor barrier (Low VOC, Installed in 1 day, 10 times stronger than builder grade epoxy)

So which solution do I choose? Because the process of doing a garage floor is very involved. If you need us to take everything out of your garage we offer temporary trailer storage to secure your belongings while undergoing the process. If a return to service is important to you then our ultra fast curing epoxy is the best solution. If you are looking for the best product on the market then call us, because we have it. Below is a comparison of builders grade vs how we do things:  

Builder Grade

• Not Mechanically grinded, they mainly utilize acid etching
• Some say they are grinding but they are really just sanding.  In order to grind you have to remove enough material to open up the pores of the concrete so it accepts epoxy.
• The epoxy used is cut with fillers or other cutting agents.
• On many occasions the epoxy that is used is from Sherwin Williams and other paint manufacturers which isn't manufactured to the highest quality standard
• Either they use no top coat or they use the same epoxy as the base coat which will change to an amber color over time when exposed to sunlight.

TGC Floor Coating Process
