Rust-Oleum 251965 EPOXYSHIELD Garage Floor Coating Kit, 1 Car, Gloss Gray

It took a bit longer to receive than I expected. However was a great price and has looks great on my garage. It has a wet shiny reflective surface and with the none skid surface. We did let it cure for a whole week in 90 degree weather before we started moving anything back in. It didn’t even scuff up at all even a heavy tool box.

Nice product. I applied it to a fresh, cured, untrodden slab that I went after with a 7” diamond disc and then pressure washed. I didn’t use the etchant. Figured I’d have no adhesion issues with the pre work I did and the fact that this was a clean new slab. I used the flecks, but not all of them. I think I will be happy.

Used three boxes to cover the floor in a 700 sqft basement (and had nearly a half gallon left over). Great coverage with an amazing finish. I went a little excessive with the chips and bought an extra bag but I like it.The etching instructions are a bit sparse so I scrubbed and rinsed the floor a few times before applying etching which I left on, while scrubbing with a broom, maybe 10 minutes before rinsing. Seems to work well.Also, be sure to fill or patch any cracks or pits in the floor. Epoxy seeps into the cracks to help seal but, they remain and will catch debris afterwards.

Positive that I received a bad, old batch! Listen! Do not use this product if you are experiencing Humid weather! It does not dry, and may also be the reason for some of these reviews stating it peels in a year. The answers you will hear immediately from Rust. Customer Service is, “You need to take it off and start over,” and “We recommend this being done within 5 days of putting the initial step on.” We are currently experiencing humid weather, and the CS person has been prepared to give this answer when a customer is saying it isn’t drying. This is Rust-O-Leum’s and AmericanMart’s fault on this product! Buy a clear gloss product that comes in a can, not a stupid pouch!

Good product used a couple times now. It's all in the prep (most time consuming) for this product. Ideally you have a pressure washer and some arm grease for cleaning and etching the floor. Goes on easy and looks great. Make sure your epoxy bag isn't shipped to you with one side of the pouch hard. This means it's already gone off and you will need a refund and reorder. Take your time and enjoy the ride. To really make the floor professional, add the Rust-Oleum clear epoxy topcoat and use the anti slip packet (separate purchases). This makes it way stronger, no slip, and gives it that showroom Sheen. It also helps when you throw the color flakes to say BAM in an Emeril voiceover. Have fun...

it turned out great. Just make sure to mix enough for few minutes after adding anti skid additive (Included in this kit) and them immediately apply with 9 inch roller. Just make sure to apply in 4 x4 patches and remember the starting and ending points as those aren't directly visible when being applied due to transparent nature of the liquid. Also, I have kept the floor for 2 days to get it dry after applying epoxy and then just simply broom-ed the floor once more to make sure all decorative chips and any collected dust is completely removed. Coverage is just close enough for 2 car garage of any standard size. Make sure to not overdo as it will not last for complete garage later.

I followed the instructions provided in the box, and the results were impressive. After 24 hours, the finish looked great, and now, three weeks later, the paint still looks new and shiny. My family really likes the refreshed look of our garage. Very satisfied with this product!

Pretty accurate as my garage was 576 sq ft and I only needed a tiny bit of the second box I purchased.- HOWEVER, previous reviewers were correct and one of my epoxy bags was damaged during shipping so it was chunky and I threw that bag away.- Also as someone said, that other box I got was the exact same product, but the paint comes out a different color. Mine wasn’t as bad as the previous reviewers, but you can notice if you look hard.- I bought extra chips, but only used what came with the kit.As for the clear kit (Amazon sucks and only lets me do one review for everything), I used the 2.5 car garage 2 pack for my 576 sq ft garage.- DO TWO COATS. I tried to do everything in one THICK coat and was left with a couple dry spots. It’s clear, so it’s a pain to tell if you are evenly rolling everything across the floor (yes used headlamps and job site lights to see if it was wet/ shiny versus dry). So do one coat WITHOUT the antiskid (as directed in the instructions), let dry, and then hit it again with a top coat mixed with antiskid.Moral of the review, you get what you pay for. It’s a cheap way to pimp out your garage. But if you’re OCD and want it to be PERFECT, then you got to cash out and get the professional kit** pictures taken before clear coat was applied
