Wow, looks fantastic, my floor goes in around the 28th, probably have to leave for a while to cure before coating, did the contractor do the floor grind ? The concreter i'm using will use a helicopter float to smooth, but whether this is smooth enough for the coating, i'm assuming probably not. Being a urethane top coat, sounds like a relatively easy repair if damaged, (not to deep).

Looks great

Thanks Dave. My concrete was quite smooth and 5 years old. It has some fine cracks and a fair few paint marks and some oil spots. The floor contractor did a skim of the whole surface after attention to the cracks , then acid wash and so on. The concrete curing time may be relatively short, especially as the first coat is an epoxy and bonds with concrete well even if a bit damp, I am told. Other would know more.

Default Job Done

Finally painted the floor in the shed.

I used the PPG Amerloc Like Leigh and Stiffy.

Great stuff goes on really easy if you follow the steps.

I have learned that painting the floor with thongs (On My Feet) can be dangerous expecially when you step on a wet patch painted a few hours ago.

Started to get things organized.

Phil

I had the wrong name, the product is called StoneHard. If you have money to burn this is it. Industrial quality materials.
Stonhard

I highly recommend U Coat It.

UCoat It Epoxy Floor Coating

It is a DIY system and they give you everything you need. I used it on my new slab and it went on easily and held up perfectly to rolling jacks, engine hoists, brake fluid, etc.

I saw the title of this thread and I thought it was about Andrew's paint job.
