It's simple: cost effectiveness and aesthetics. Coating your floors with RESIN8 CO's epoxy solutions offers several advantages over installing new concrete, wood, or tiles. Epoxy coatings provide a seamless, durable, and highly resistant surface that can withstand heavy traffic, chemicals, and abrasion, making them ideal for both commercial and residential settings. Unlike traditional flooring options, epoxy coatings are easy to clean and maintain, reducing long-term maintenance costs. They also offer versatile design possibilities, allowing you to customize the look and feel of your space with various colors, patterns, and finishes. Additionally, floor coatings can be applied more quickly and with less disruption than installing new flooring, saving you time and labor costs. By choosing an epoxy coating, you get a cost-effective, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing solution that enhances the functionality and appearance of your floors.

We use special Polycrystalline Diamonds (PCD) under our industrial grinder to remove prior/dried adhesive on your floor. We also use special grit diamonds to even out the surface of your floor prior to epoxy application.

After 24 hours of topcoat application, light foot traffic is fine. We recommend 48-72 hours for heavy traffic.

We work with a wide variety of manufacturers and distributors. Please contact us with your creative vision and we will provide you a list of options to choose.

For every application, we apply a topcoat of either Polyaspartic, Polyurethane, or Epoxy Siloxane that guarantees UV protection and anti-discoloration.

When providing your estimate, RESIN8 CO determines the best solution for your floor. This means choosing the right products for the system you choose, whether it is interior or exterior. All products have a different scale of resistance from slipping, scratching, and chemicals. This information can be provided via our contact form or manufacturer's website.

All floor systems are backed by warranties which include coverages for cracks, chips, and peels on a case-by-case basis. Warranty coverages do not include full replacement of the project.

A moisture vapor barrier is often needed for epoxy flooring in situations where there is a high risk of moisture migration from the substrate (typically concrete) up through the flooring system.

Absolutely. We can get creative and customize your floor with the right system. It does not have to be a flake or metallic floor. We can apply solid color coats.

Our flake options come in various sizes such as 1/4", 1/8", and 1/16".

100% Solids Epoxy refers to a type of epoxy coating that contains no solvents or water, meaning it is composed entirely of reactive components. This results in a thicker, more durable, and highly resistant coating once it cures. Unlike solvent-based or water-based epoxies, 100% solids epoxy does not shrink during the curing process, ensuring a consistent and robust finish. This type of epoxy is ideal for applications requiring superior performance, such as industrial and commercial flooring, where durability, chemical resistance, and longevity are crucial. Additionally, 100% solids epoxy can be applied in thicker layers, providing a more substantial protective barrier for your floors.

Polyurea is a type of advanced coating technology known for its exceptional durability, flexibility, and rapid curing properties. It is a two-component solution that forms a seamless, highly resistant layer. Polyurea is widely used in various industries due to its outstanding resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Its fast curing time allows for quick application and minimal downtime, making it ideal for projects requiring rapid turnaround. Additionally, polyurea coatings are highly flexible, which enables them to withstand structural movements and prevent cracking. This makes polyurea an excellent choice for protecting and enhancing surfaces in industrial, commercial, and even residential settings.

Polyaspartic is a coating known for its fast curing time, exceptional durability, and versatility. It is a two-component system that can be applied in a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels, making it highly adaptable for various environments. Polyaspartic coatings offer superior resistance to UV rays, chemicals, abrasion, and impact, ensuring long-lasting protection and aesthetic appeal. They are commonly used for floor coatings, providing a seamless, glossy finish that can be walked on within hours of application. Additionally, polyaspartic coatings are low in VOCs (volatile organic compounds), making them an environmentally friendly option. Their quick curing time, combined with excellent performance characteristics, makes polyaspartic an ideal choice for both commercial and residential flooring projects.

Polyurethane is a versatile and durable polymer used in a wide range of applications, including coatings, adhesives, and foams. As a coating, polyurethane provides excellent protection against abrasion, chemicals, and UV radiation, making it ideal for surfaces that require a tough, long-lasting finish. It can be formulated to be either flexible or rigid, depending on the specific requirements of the application. Polyurethane coatings are known for their high gloss and clarity, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of floors and other surfaces. They also offer good resistance to water and stains, making them easy to clean and maintain. Due to their durability and versatility, polyurethane coatings are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential settings, providing a reliable and attractive protective layer.

Epoxy Siloxane is a hybrid coating that combines the best properties of epoxy and silicone-based materials. This advanced coating technology offers superior durability, chemical resistance, and weatherability compared to traditional epoxy coatings. Epoxy siloxane is particularly valued for its excellent resistance to UV radiation, which prevents yellowing and degradation over time, making it ideal for outdoor applications. It provides a tough, high-gloss finish that is both aesthetically pleasing and easy to clean. Additionally, epoxy siloxane coatings are known for their flexibility and adhesion properties, allowing them to withstand thermal expansion and contraction without cracking or peeling. These characteristics make epoxy siloxane an excellent choice for a wide range of industrial, commercial, and residential applications where long-lasting, high-performance coatings are required.
