Resincoat Epoxy Flake Flooring System

The epoxy flake systems is a strong industrial coating providing high levels of durability ideal for both domestic & industrial use. The flooring would look great in any garage floor, showroom, gym and any other industrial space. Our system makes concrete floors look highly attractive whilst also providing a high quality finish. The base and top coat consist of our best-selling epoxy floor coating proudly manufactured in the UK.

There are two main flakes finishes; full blind & scatter.
Full Blind- complete covering of flakes across the entire surface.
Scatter – a scattering of flakes across your surface.

• 2 coats of HB epoxy floor paint – the base coat for your flake (your choice of colour)
• Blended flakes - enough flakes for either a full blind or scatter finish (your choice of colours)
• Top coat – Clear epoxy floor paint
• Application kit – All tools & accessories you will need

*Please note the paint pole isn't included in the kit.

Preparation:
Before applying the flake system we advise that you vacuum the area. Old paint finishes should be removed if flaking at all and if well bonded abraded sanded to create texture prior to applying the paint. Preparing the floor mechanically (shot blasting or grinding) is always advisable but if that is not possible our Etch and Clean is a good alternative.
