Maybe you’re finally getting around to renovating your existing garage. Perhaps you’re in the process of creating your dream garage workshop. Whatever your project, you’re going to need that concrete floor in tip-top shape before doing anything else.
Polyurea concrete coating is easy to apply, resistant to stains, scratches, and chemicals, and, most importantly, looks great. Read on to find out more about this popular garage floor finish.
1. UV Light Resistant
Polyurea flooring is resistant to UV radiation, which means it can stand up to the degradation exposure to sunlight typically causes in polymer plastics.
But what does this actually mean in practical terms? Basically, when under the heat of the sun–say, when a garage door is open or sunlight beaming through a window–it won’t fade, turn yellow, or peel, crack, or ripple like its epoxy coating counterparts.
2. Moisture Resistant
Polyurea floor is well-known for its ability to resist moisture because it adheres so well to almost any surface–wood, metal, and concrete, among others. And it does so in virtually any climate.
In fact, that’s the reason Polyurea was invented back in the 1980s. Flooring companies and other industries needed a moisture-resistant alternative to standard polyurethane.
So what’s the benefit of a moisture-resistant coating for garage floors? Well, water infiltration degrades concrete over time, weakening it.
3. Smooth Application
Polyurea has a shockingly fast hardening rate of between 5 and 15 seconds. (Yes, seconds.) That’s a lot faster than epoxy or polyurethane alternatives.
Couple this with a slow and steady application, and you’re left with a smooth floor free from bubbles or other imperfections. Whether you’re coating an old or a brand new concrete floor, you can rest assured a Polyurea garage floor will look sleek.
4. Stain, Scratch, and Chemical Resistant
Polyurea is renowned for its ability to resist scratches. Kickstands, work boots, even dropped tools are no match for this hardy floor coating. Likewise, it’s impervious to harsh chemicals like oil, grease, and antifreeze.
If you use your garage for heavy-duty projects or mechanical work, this flooring option is for you.
Polyurea garage floor coating is also impervious to damage from freezing or high temperatures. This makes it an ideal material for use in areas with cold, snowy winters or scorching summers.
5. Attractive
Polyurea floor coating comes in a wide range of colors and finishes to suit any interior.
Some of these include:
- Solid color
- Quartz
- Metallic
- Medici
- Full chip
You can also request custom finishes to match company branding guidelines or unique floor plans.
