Benefits of Decorative Epoxy Flooring
Decorative epoxy flooring is not just about looks; it’s about performance and longevity. Here are some reasons why decorative epoxy flooring stands out:
Aesthetically Pleasing: Epoxy floors can be customized with various colors, metallic finishes, and decorative patterns such as flakes, quartz, and marbling effects. This allows for unique and visually stunning designs that can complement any interior decor.
Durability: Epoxy flooring is highly resistant to wear and tear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. It can withstand heavy foot traffic, machinery, and impacts without showing signs of damage.
Easy Maintenance: The smooth, seamless surface of epoxy floors makes them easy to clean and maintain. Spills and stains can be easily wiped away, and regular sweeping and mopping will keep the floor looking pristine.
Chemical Resistance: Epoxy floors are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including oils, solvents, and cleaning agents. This makes them perfect for garages, workshops, and industrial spaces where chemical spills are common.
Safety Features: Epoxy flooring can be enhanced with anti-slip additives to improve traction and reduce the risk of slips and falls, making it a safer option for both residential and commercial spaces.
Residential, Commercial, & Industrial Decorative Epoxy Flooring
Decorative epoxy flooring is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of settings. Here are some of the best places to install decorative epoxy flooring:
Residential Spaces: Enhance the beauty and functionality of your home with epoxy flooring in garages, basements, kitchens, and living areas. The customizable designs can complement any interior style, while the durability ensures long-lasting performance.
Commercial Spaces: Epoxy flooring is perfect for retail stores, showrooms, and restaurants. The high-gloss finish creates an inviting atmosphere, while the durability withstands heavy foot traffic and frequent cleaning.
Industrial Environments: Factories, warehouses, and workshops benefit from epoxy flooring due to its resistance to chemicals, heavy machinery, and high traffic. The easy-to-clean surface also helps maintain a hygienic workspace.
Why We Use Polyaspartic Top Coats (Instead of Standard Epoxy)
When it comes to protecting your concrete, not all coatings are the same. A lot of companies or DIY kits use standard epoxy for every layer. While epoxy is great for bonding to base concrete, using it as a top coat has major flaws in a real garage.
That is why Astro Clean uses industrial grade Polyaspartic for our top coats. Here is why it makes a massive difference for your floor:
1. It Won’t Turn Yellow in the Sun (UV Stable)
Standard epoxy breaks down and turns an ugly yellowish-brown color when it gets hit by sunlight through an open garage door or a window. Polyaspartic is 100% UV stable. It will stay bright, clear, and the exact color you picked for decades.
2. It Handles Hot Tires Without Peeling
Have you ever seen a garage floor where the coating peeled right up where the car parks? That’s called "hot tire pickup." When your tires get hot from driving on the highway and you park on standard epoxy, the heat softens the plastic and pulls it off the concrete. Polyaspartic handles extreme heat effortlessly your tires won't stick or peel it up.
3. It is 4x Stronger Against Scratches and Impacts
Garages and shops are hard-working spaces. You drop tools, drag floor jacks, and track in dirt. Polyaspartic is incredibly flexible and tough. It is four times more scratch-resistant than standard epoxy, meaning it won’t chip or scuff when life happens.
4. Road Salt and Chemicals Wipe Right Off
Wisconsin winters are brutal on concrete because of the road salt, brine, and fluids dripping off your vehicle. Polyaspartic creates a totally seamless, non-porous barrier. Gas, oil, brake fluid, and harsh winter salt just sit on top of the surface without eating into it. You can clean the whole floor with a simple mop or hose.
Why We Start with a VBP (Vapor Barrier Primer) Base Coat
Most garage floor failures don’t happen from the top down ,they happen from the bottom up. Concrete looks solid, but it actually acts like a sponge, constantly soaking up moisture from the dirt underneath your garage.
If you put a regular coating over damp concrete, that trapped moisture turns into vapor pressure. It pushes upward, causing the new floor to bubble, crack, and peel right off.
That is why Astro Clean never skips the most important step: we apply a high-grade VBP (Vapor Barrier Primer) epoxy base coat before throwing down any flakes. Here is why it’s a must-have for a floor that lasts:
1. It Holds Back Moisture Pressure
Our VBP is a specialized epoxy engineered to withstand intense hydrostatic (water) pressure pushing up from under the slab. It penetrates deep into the pores of the concrete and creates an unbreakable seal that stops moisture dead in its tracks.
2. It Acts Like Super Glue for Your Flakes
A standard coating just sits on top of the concrete. Our Vapor Barrier Primer actually fuses into the concrete after we diamond-grind it smooth. This creates a rock-solid, permanent bond. Once this primer cures, it will not pull away from the concrete, giving the colored flakes a perfect foundation to stick to.
3. It Fills and Strengthens Cracks
Before the primer goes down, we open up and repair all the pitting, cracks, and divots in your old concrete. The thick VBP layer flows into those minor imperfections, leveling out the floor and making the entire slab structurally stronger than it was before.
The Astro Clean System:
Think of the VBP as the deep foundation of your floor, and the Polyaspartic as the armor on top. By starting with a moisture-blocking primer and finishing with a scratch-proof top coat, we guarantee a flake floor that won't bubble up, flake off, or fail when the ground gets damp.
WHY OUR FLOOR COATINGS STAND OUT
Slip Resistant
Our floor coatings are designed with optional texture and aggregates to improve traction, making them safer than bare concrete—especially in garages, workshops, and moisture-prone areas.
Durable
Installed using commercial-grade materials and proper surface preparation, our floor coatings are built to withstand heavy use, abrasion, and daily wear for years.
Low Maintenance
Non-porous and seamless, our epoxy systems resist oil, chemicals, dirt, and stains. Cleaning is simple, with no grout lines or concrete dust to deal with.
Fast installation
Most residential projects can be completed in one day or two. Our efficient process minimizes downtime while delivering long-lasting results.
OUR PROCESS
FULL GRINDING & REPAIR
Every floor is mechanically ground, moisture tested, all the fractures in the concrete floor filled and properly profiled for maximum coating performance.
COATING & BROADCAST
To apply the best and most lasting floor coatings, we start with a VBP (vapor barrier primer) then a generous amount of decorative flake is distributed by hand, giving the floor a uniform color and texture.
SCRAPE & TOP COAT
The floor is leveled to prepare it for the final sealing by scraping off any extra flake. Finally, a UV-stable topcoat is applied. In four to six hours, your floor will be prepared for light foot traffic.
