What is epoxy resin, and why is it used for garage floors?

Epoxy resin is a durable, high-performance coating that bonds seamlessly to concrete surfaces. It's used for garage floors due to its superior strength, resistance to chemicals, and easy maintenance, making it an ideal choice for enhancing the durability and appearance of your garage.

What is the difference between epoxy and polyaspartic coatings?

Both epoxy and polyaspartic coatings offer durable solutions for concrete surfaces. Epoxy is known for its robust, long-lasting finish, while polyaspartic coatings cure faster and are more UV resistant, making them ideal for outdoor applications.

Can I apply epoxy coatings myself?

While DIY epoxy kits are available, they often fall short in terms of quality and durability. Many kits have a very low solids content, meaning most of the product the customer pays for doesn't actually end up on the floor. Proper surface preparation is crucial for any concrete coating, and DIY methods like acid etching do not provide a suitable surface profile. Without the proper equipment and knowledge, these DIY products typically fail within the first 6 months to 2 years. Professional installation by Weatherstone Epoxy ensures a high-quality, durable finish, saving you time and avoiding potential headaches.

Can polyaspartic products be used for outdoor surfaces?

While polyaspartic products are highly durable and UV stable, technically making them suitable for outdoor use, we DO NOT recommend them for this application. When wet or icy, even with anti-slip additives, they can become dangerously slippery. For outdoor projects, we recommend using products specifically designed for exterior use to ensure safety and optimal performance.

Why should I seal my concrete?

Sealing your concrete protects it from moisture, chemicals, and surface spalling caused by traffic and freeze-thaw cycles. This preventive measure extends the life of your concrete and helps avoid costly repairs, especially in Utah’s harsh climate.

How does Weatherstone’s concrete densifier and repeller work?

Our concrete densifier and repeller is a water-based solution that penetrates deep into the concrete, chemically reacting to strengthen it. Unlike topical sealers, it doesn't change the appearance, isn't slippery when wet, and doesn’t need reapplication.

How long does the installation process take?

The installation time varies depending on the size and complexity of the project. Typically, garage floor coatings can be completed within a single day, and cure in 48-72 hours. Concrete sealing is a quicker process and the space can usually be returned to use within 30 minutes to an hour.

Is there any downtime after applying the coatings?

Yes, there is minimal downtime required. For our concrete densifier and repeller, the surface can usually be put back into use within hours of treatment. Epoxy and polyaspartic coatings require up to 72 hours to fully cure before heavy use.

What maintenance is required for epoxy floors?

Epoxy floors are low-maintenance and easy to clean. Regular sweeping and mopping with a mild detergent will keep your floor looking new. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.

Are your products environmentally friendly?

Yes, all of our products are VOC compliant and many have low odor, making them safe for both residential and commercial applications.
