Video Recap:
- This is an old epoxy floor badly in need of renovation. There were several areas of flooring failure and just a question of time before the entire area would fail.
- Clearly, the damage was beyond the need for patch and repair.
- The existing floor was well beyond its service life and needed a complete renovation. There were holes in the floor that extended through the entire floor slab from where walls were removed before the job started.
- An epoxy floor coating [Garon Guard™] was specified due to the short downtime to get back into production.
- Most coating systems require a three or four step application process but because of the nano technology in Garon Guard™, it allowed for a two-step application thus meeting the facility owner’s time frame of a 48-hour deadline.
FAQS For Epoxy Floor Coatings
I think I need an epoxy coating for my floor but I’m not sure. Please tell me about epoxy industrial floor coating materials, what should my next steps be to coat my floor?

- Recent developments, like nano epoxy resin, have improved durability.
- Epoxy coatings are available in various formulations for different applications, including trowel-applied resurfacers and thin mil systems, with adjustable cure times.
- They can also be customized with decorative elements like chips and aggregates.
- As epoxy coatings continue to be popular, consulting manufacturers helps in selecting the right material for specific needs.
Two mechanical room floors in an electronics manufacturing facility was in need for an overhaul with the application of industrial floor coatings. An existing floor sealer was failing as it wasn’t the right flooring for the rooms use.
To keep facility operations running smoothly, a quick curing epoxy coating was applied in two coats to complete the job fast while providing longevity.
 | The Problem: Existing floor coating failed and was peeling up. |
 | The Complexity: The old floor coating had to be removed with hand grinders |
 | The Solution: A two-coat application of a nano-infused epoxy coating. |
 | The Result: Only two coats of Garon Guard. Saved time! |
