IN A NUTSHELL/ PAINT CHIPS IN A GARAGE EPOXY FLOOR : pigmented epoxy base coat. Chips go on top of the wet base
coat or in a clear middle coat that is applied over the dry pigmented epoxy base coat. With a chips in a clear
middle coat you can back roll over them, coating them top and bottom. The clear middle coat can be either a solvent
based polyurethane (Acrylic Poly UV Plus) or a solvent free epoxy (Epoxy Floor Seal). The clear epoxies will yellow
in UV. Often another coat of a 2 part poly (same product as above) with UV blockers is then applied over the clear
epoxy or clear polyurethane that contains the chips.
-----
Cost per square foot with epoxy base, chips with 100% coverage and 2 coats of clear two part polyurethane is about $1.50 - $2 per square foot. Price drops if chips are used as accent only.
100% chip coverage requires 1 pound of chips per 7 - 10 sf. That said, most folks with a 2 car garage (about 500
SF) usually order 20 pounds of chips. Chips come in custom color blended 10 pound and 55 pound bags. You use the
color chart below to pick the colors and percentage of each color you want and then call in the order.

Thanks Paul,
It is very popular in these parts to put flakes about 8 inches up the wall as a seamless extension of the floor
– makes cleaning very easy. On digging a little further, it is no different to the broadcasting of the flake on
the floor. Wet base coat on the wall first and throw flake in great quantity against the vertical surface (no base
coat on the floor at this stage as the pile of flake at the wall floor join will need to be vacuumed up prior to
putting epoxy on the floor!!)
How much chips? - customer gives some feedback - April 2013:
Here were some stats -- bear
in mind that I used quart plastic soup containers and 16 oz plastic beer cups,
so my measurements may be off by 10-20%.
10# of 1/4" chips corresponded to roughly 7.5-8 quarts of chips; in other words
a 24 oz cup holds roughly 1lb of flakes.
I test-flaked a 25 sq ft floor using 1 qt (i.e 1.3 lbs -- 53 lbs/1000sf) of
flakes and got a flake coverage that was somewhere between heavy and rejection,
I then used roughly 3-4 qts (I'll have to go back and weigh the bag to get a
more accurate estimate) and aimed for roughly 1 16 oz cup per 50 sq ft, which
corresponds to a little heavier than the 'medium' coverage.
10 lbs of chips was roughly 8 quarts
(I measured).
1 quart of chips on 25 sq ft produced a 'heavy', but not 'full' flake effect
(roughly 1.2 lb)
Epoxy Floor On Large Garage - primer/base/chips/clear coat |
"Good afternoon Paul! My floor is done and it is all over but the smell from the two part polyurethane top coat. . HA! Cool temps worked in my favor to keep pot-life long but the rainy weather tried to work against me. I ended up tarping over my garage door opening so I could get the area under the seal done without dealing with water on the floor. A cheap rubber squeegee from Harbor Freight was an essential item because it is way too tough to get even distribution of the industrial floor epoxy with just a roller. The squeegee was the same price as a single 24" roller tube anyway and it worked great. I ended up broadcasting chips into the epoxy rather than the clear coat because I wanted a slightly smoother floor. It probably took more chips this way but I think it was a fair trade. If I had to do it over again I'd seriously consider putting chips into a clear epoxy middle coat because even with two coats of poly my basement floor is a bit rougher than I thought it would be. I ended up putting a third coat of UV Poly on the garage floor and it still seems pretty non-skid but is smooth enough that it will be easier to keep clean. The coverage estimates were spot on for Floor epoxy and UV Poly top coat. The Primer was another story, my basement floor was pumped concrete and after bead blasting it was like a cement sponge! The poured concrete on my mail level took the primer as expected. I'm very happy with the results and will be ordering another gallon of UV clear from you when it is time to do the steps and landings. Thanks again!" Gordon 4/16 |
