I love how you included taking all of your crap out of the garage in the video, so authentic.
Great stuff thank you for sharing this video 🙏🏻 appreciate your time and help
Great video! Thank you for sharing
I didn’t know they made these shrouds! I bought one after viewing your video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad I could help!
Great video. Very thorough.
Stangtabulous Thanks for your kind comment!
Finally! A video that answers the question of how to smooth a concrete floor! Thank you!
My pleasure!!
@@Got2Learn will this process remove old oil stains on concrete?
@@Lifesituations8000 yes, you have to follow the cleaning step that I posted.
@@Got2Learn thanks
@@Lifesituations8000 np 😉
I would grind the floor regardless just to get a nice finish. Doing it for my driveway that's starting to show its age.
Good job.
Have fun buddy, it's a cool project, and you'll love the end result ;)
@G2L it looks like you are using a Rigid shop vac. They do make a HEPA certified filter and bag kit. I use these for dust control on my jobs for most tasks. This combination eliminated the need to constantly beat out excess dust... the other option is a dedicated HEPA vac.
Love the videos!
🤘🤘🤘
Love the kneeler.
Thanks a lot Donald, please like and share the video if you can it helps keep the channel healthy ;)
Good tip bro
Question where can I buy the same red diamond cup shown on your video for the Bosch Concrete grinder
Wow great Video!!! Its gonna be like new once you're done!! Very nice!!! Bravo !!! 👌☺️☺️
love the series so far couz
should I be using those 2091 filters on my respirator or the bigger ones like you have on?
Good job! Question: can I use 10 liters of epoxy sika 261 CA for two coatings (garage for one car 250 pi 2), pre-buy another bucket and use half A and B for one coat. If you buy two of 10 liters (for two coatings) this is about $ 600 in Montreal. Thank you
merci pour la démonstration
Dan Beny Fait plaisir cher! ;)
very good
عبد المحسن الجبوري.Thanks
Ton anglais est très bon et ton vidéo est bien fait
Your video is very well explained
Alain Bilodeau Merci beaucoup, c'est tres apprecier !!
Amazing work! Will you be doing more videos like this again soon?
Best Access Doors Thank you, yes I will be doing more ;)
The name of the grinder purchase link, grinder wheel, accessories as well tech specification please
There are dust shrouds that have a small removable edge so you can go right to the wall.
I did not know about that, can you link the product here so I can use in the description ?
dustlesstools.com for that product and many more!
very informative. well done!
Elianne Carra thanks Elianne !!!
Elianne Carra 。 。
What a great informative video!!! Very proud!!! Auntie Vivi📣
It helps to whet the concrete before applying the mortar so the mortar does not crack

Heyyy!!! Toi tu as un accent quebecois quand tu parle! Vraiment sick!
Jme creer un garage moi avec, so i'm super thrilled to have landed on your channel!
Hehe ;) tu es de ou !?
@@Got2Learn Montreal-Nord (j'viens de voir que je n'ai jamais repondu)
Cool!
next step will be in 1 week minimum, lot's of stuff in the next part, stay tuned !
You need built a cyclone dust collector for your shop vacuum it is better and easy thank you
Pro tip. Use a bag in the vacuume
Thx will do next time ;)
Belle job mon chum
🤘
Just a tip, even if your concrete is free of a coating, it's important to still grind it back as it gives epoxy something to bond to, if you don't grind your floor, before long the coating will chip away since it hasn't bonded to the concrete surface properly, also if you can, avoid using any water near where you're going to coat unless you're grinding over it (for very hard concrete) epoxy and water are not friends.
Thanks for your input, I took note of that ;)
Can I do this to my kitchen floor on concrete slab? I don’t want to rent a huge grinder. If so, what steps do I need to make it looked polished? I.e, grinding disks top coats etc. Think Costco floor or warehouse floor? Current subfloor is pretty smooth minus some plaster drips and linoleum glue. Any info would be appreciated? 💕
All you need is a 7" grinder like in my video and you should be fine ;)
Working on the grinding part right now on a 2.5 car garage, and I've noticed that there's some light visual cupping scratches in the floor as I go. I'm grinding off an old epoxy coating; if I keep the grinder moving faster it doesn't get the coating off, and at the fastest I can move and still remove the coating it still tends to gouge the concrete occasionally. I've been trying to smooth these gouges as best I can as I go, but I can still tell the surface isn't 100% smooth. Does the epoxy self-level over this?
Nah you would need a pro machine for it not to show, even on my floor they show, but it doesn't bother me.
You need to grind in circles and be patient as long as you scratch the surface sufficient for mechanical adhesion to occur you should be ok. the reason for the circles is so that you have less chance of digging in. Dont be in a hurry unless youre a contractor but by then you will know how to trouble shoot.
Exactly
It's funny that a lot of people think they could DIY epoxy floors at their own house they have no clue what they're doing
This is a great video. The other day I did my garage floor using the advice.
Thank you so much!
:D
GreatWhiteNiko Dear Lord...your comment is the perfect example of pure jealousy lol!
Why? All I said was that you are great and give solid advice.
:D
GreatWhiteNiko You don't seem like a happy individual, and you probably don't have any friends either, there is help for that did you know?
GreatWhiteNiko when I pick up my phone I'm going to say "OK GreatWhiteNiko" instead of "OK Google" because you have all the answers.
I saw this done on basement walls but some people had concerns on if they could do it on block foundations. They thought it might damage the foundation. Thoughts?
I really don't know, never heard of that.
Diamabrush works best.. and a dust buddy attachment to the shop vac
I was considering diamabrush. Did you use the concrete prep tool with floor polisher at home depot?
I literally have the exact same respirator. Seems to work pretty good
+clarke griswold They sure do ;)
Got2Learn I’m pretty strict with safety as well. I’m also a sandblaster and I wear a dust mask underneath the blast helmet, people at work think I go overboard lol
My floor is already free of any coatings but the previous owner of this home got a shit ton of spray paint on the garage floor. You think etching it should be enough?
Etch and clean man, don't take any chances ;)
hi, i got the same bosch model, when i try to sand concrete i see sand marks, dont know what mistake i am doing.. can u pls give me some tips, is it because of blade, i got diamon cut blade makita brand
With any small grinder you will see marks, eve I see them on my floor. If you want less marks, you need the bigger machine.
Remowe cup brush Megaloder.
How did you choose the double-row grinder over the "turbo" grinder which has the diamond elements at an angle?
That's just the wheel that came with the rental tool hehe
Super video ! Je me demandais combien de temps le sablage t’avais pris ?
Salut, le sablage m'a pris environ 5-6 heures en tout avec la petite meule ;)
1:57 The silica dust that you acknowledged is a health hazard is now blowing towards your neighbor's house. Now they have to breathe it. You could easily take some precautions to control the silica dust from endangering other people.
Question. About how long in hours did it take you to hand grind your garage.
Hmmm, maybe like 5-10 hours.
Nice jod.... but for vacuum jod u can put paper bag ...that will help to the filter ....save a lot mess
Rene Baltazar Jeez, why did I not think of that, thanks a lot !!
Hi! Whats the maximum depth of cut you can take with the grinder?
Cut or "grind down" ?
@@Got2Learn grind down :)
It'll grind down more than you need, put it that way ;)
heheh merci...jai une semaine de congé, jvais mettre l'epoxy dans le garage
JonTV Bonne chance mon ami ;)
Thanks I got to know the sander. Once I put epoxy say after 2 years can I power wash . 2; if there is an oil stain after 2 years of my epoxy can I use carb cleaner or any decreser to get it out. Thanks again
Absolutely. You can use your power washer and degreaser not long after the epoxy has been applied.
Got2Learn. Thanks much . So after I apply epoxy and if I want to power wash for cleaning, hope epoxy will not be peeled.
You can, epoxy adhere's much better then paint so don't be scared to power wash it ;)
Got2Learn thanks buddy. I have filled the crack with concrete sealer and put epoxy from Sherwin Williams. Now I can see the filler standing out.filler is not epoxy it is from Dap made for concrete filler. Can I sand that filler and recoat. I see that filler has some silicone as well. So not sure the sander will sand silicone filler. Also does home Depot rent such sander
sivaraj palanisamy I don't know if you can sand that crack filler but if you are willing to take the risk, you might need to redo the whole crack with the same epoxy that I used. Yes, you can get the grinder at home depot for around 50$ for the day.
How long did it take to grind down that 1 car garage
few days
I have an existing epoxy floor, but I would like to change the color. Do I have to remove the old color entirely?
What's the condition of the existing floor??
@@Got2Learn I currently have an epoxy on it. This application is about 2 years old. I just want to change the color without having to remove it all, if that is possible
I wouls scuff it first, but i'm no pro.
Je peux t'engager a faire la meme chose a mon garage? de Part1 a l'application d'epoxy...
curious as to how you decided on the word EASY to describe this task
Ken Lelon With the guidance of the video of course ;)
What grit diamond did you use?

@@Got2Learn thank you

Where can I find that shroud
The shroud came in the kit I rented it from. If you want to buy one, you might want to check online depending where you are situated, or just go to your local hardware shop, they should be able to point you in the right direction!
Dustless tools makes a ton of them for many grinders, drills and much more. dustlesstools.com
Thanks
Blow that silica towards the neighbor's house
Use a bag with the vacuum and you won't have to stop
;)
Good luck getting a mask now because everyone’s buying them
Lollllll
You don't have a huge accent btw, but it's normal. We french Canadians from Quebec have a hard time to lose that slight accent
You aren’t “sanding the concrete” you are grinding the substrate and you better do it, every.single.time. Acid etching and “sanding” is not enough.

Wrong sanding... If its sanding at all lol
What do you mean lol?
@@Got2Play sanding and grinding is different thing... He sais he is sanding by using grinder. I really doubt he will sand or grind 3 to 5 mm only by hand.
@@Got2Play whan you want it right...use Makita
Oh please..
@@Got2Play its different if its "epoxy floor' or 'epoxy on the floor'.. congratz on clickbait
