I have a concrete roof to a basement which is partly ground level, which we park a car on outside. It is at the moment covered with a rubberised paint. After planing the surface would epoxy be waterproof and suitable to park on?
Thank you for putting together this video. I’ve removed “carpet” from outdoor front stairs and needed to know how to install the epoxy. Good tip about the non slip addition. Thanks again!
Super, shouldn't you have put some masking tape round the edges and bollards so you get a nice neat finish? Also, can you use fine river sand instead of silica sand?
I have a carport that I'd like to put epoxy on. It's currently the weird little tiny rocks with a clear coat over them. Had that when we bought the house, but over time the tiny rocks became loose and came off, leaving an uneven surface in a few places. COuld I use the epoxy as a filler and a thick coat over the rocks without having to scrape or cut out all of the tiny rocks?
Wondering how it looks now. Do you live up north. Wondering how it wears. How often do i need to do this. And is there a special way to freshin it up or same method. Does it chip peal or hot tire pickup? I see so many of these videos over the years but rarely any followup.
One thing about the non slip additive / silica sand. It comes in various mesh sizes. The standard sand provided is a bit 'fine' for Winter non slip in areas which get snow and ice. I'd suggest a larger sharp silica sand or equivalent in those locations. That's been our experience with epoxy on walks and floors outside.
I have a concrete slab over my garage and we believe that water is seeping through it into the garage since we constantly get water in there after rain/winter. If we sealed it with this epoxy would that make it weather proof and if so how much time can I expect to get out of it? Thanks for the video.
I had a great epoxy guy come out to me house for an outdoor driveway estimate . He mentioned all the steps he would take just like you said in your video. He mentioned the sand. I’m just concerned that the driveway would still be slippery after rain. I don’t want anyone to fall on it . I know I need to express my concerns to him. Any further thoughts? Thank you very much.
Ao what would u recommend to someone who is about to lay his own concrete but it's for a rc drift car I can drift on solid concrete but would rather keep the tire wear down so I know it can drift on hard floor such as epoxy any recommendations for what I should use I don't need much grip so reg smooth epoxy works but I'm new to so wat would I need or be best for my application also if I didn't want clear but something like a white with neon colors splatter through because my car has blacklist underglow do it would look cool what process would I take for adding these colors
I did one of those quikrete DIY molds and the result was not what I expected and I am looking for a way to put cement or something over it to smooth it what do you recommend to do
I have outdoor miniature villages. The frontier town has a creek about 15' give or take and 4" w. It is in the ground partially in the woods. My question is, what could/should/would I put down for the resin to be poured into as I'm guessing right on the soil isn't it.😊 I'm rather tired of the temporary option I currently have. We have temperatures between 33° with humidity feels like 40° and -40°C . Will you help me?
Great presentation Two things you should add 1. inform the people how much Product Covers How much SqFt 2. Tell them how much Solvent to Use "Not This Much" as you stated Say 2oz,3oz, 4oz ect... Great Job my friend
Thanks so much! I know the product as raised in price over the past few years with costs going up. I will be doing another video on this soon! Thanks so much for watching!
Jeff, By adding solvents such as acetone, lacquer thinner, or denatured alcohol to thin out the epoxy, could they change the integrity of the epoxy itself?
Great Video! I will be doing this myself and I am looking forward to my project. Thanks for making this video so clear and easy. I will post my outcome when I am done.
Great video! Looking to do this to my driveway due to spalling this past winter. Which epoxy sealer would you recommend from home depot or any local hardware store for a laned home driveway (house with rear de attached garage)? Thank you
What's your thoughts on concrete outdoor furniture tables and bench seats? They are very old and rough and I need to seal them. I want to put them around my pool area to sit
This was all purchased at Enviro-Epoxy in Markham Ontario Canada. This is the best epoxy I have ever worked with! If you need some just let them know Jeff Lepard sent you. The number is: 1-866-724-0880. They also ship their products out all over.
Great video Jeff. How much product did you have to use? I have a 900 square foot driveway. I had an extension added to on side to make it wider and now of course it does not match lol. I want to coat it for longevity and to make it match. I like what you used but need to know how much I need. Any guidance would be great! Thank you in advance
There's a different sand that you mix with the epoxy. That will give you a texture grip. The same that we throw on top of the epoxy is different and it gives the most grip.
@@JeffLepard thank you for that so which is better to throw it on or mix it in all got a pump house floor to do and I have a slab in front of my trailer which I'm going to screen the room in and I want to treat the concrete out there and I know I have to clean it I saw your video and I'm going to use a Degreaser on it cuz I think that'll work the best for me I've had cars parked on it bottom so yeah which would work better throwing it or mixing it
Pans I just use tray inserts and throw them away after. The roller I just wipe off with a towel or use acetone or gas to get the wet epoxy off. The mixing rod I just let harden and then next time I use a hammer and crack the epoxy off clean. Thanks for watching!
I did use the floor machine on the entire area. The cracks and epoxy have held up just fine its been over 2 years already. If the cracks were much larger I would have opened them up for sure.
Thank you so much for this video. So glad you did it. Question: I sealed my back patio with grey sealer from Lowes. Find myself doing this every year. Would your proxy prevent me from sealing every year? I want to preserve the concrete patio as it is expose to the elements including snow. It's in Charlotte .
Yes the epoxy sure would prevent you from doing that every year! Jobs that I have done 6 years ago are still there. Just make sure not to use the epoxy at Lowes or home depot its not the same stuff and will flake off. Thanks so much for watching!
@@JeffLepard ok, I won't. Where do I purchase from? Can you advise pls? I have a home daycare and would like to apply it to a concreted area. Thanks again!👍
@@LuisCarlos-fy6rq that's a great job to have. Just note that by a pool it's going to be slippery when wet. 2 options that you have is a texture grip mixed into the epoxy or on the clear coat or final coat you can throw some silica sand and back roll it. What does your client want?
@@LuisCarlos-fy6rq where abouts are you from? There's not many epoxy companies that offer UV friendly epoxy. I'm in Toronto, the epoxy place I use is in Markham Ontario.

Jeff Lepard
Can you please list out the product names, and quantity used for this project
Jeff Lepard will this work on a concrete pool slide?
I used epoxy-tite 1 part acrylic gray paint and it is still not slippery enough
Hi Jeff, cheers, if i need a marble effect resin floor to cover an old cracked outdoor (not covered)1st floor tiled sun deck, is it possible?
I have a concrete roof to a basement which is partly ground level, which we park a car on outside.
It is at the moment covered with a rubberised paint.
After planing the surface would epoxy be waterproof and suitable to park on?
Thank you for putting together this video. I’ve removed “carpet” from outdoor front stairs and needed to know how to install the epoxy. Good tip about the non slip addition. Thanks again!
Thanks for the very clear instructions
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Super, shouldn't you have put some masking tape round the edges and bollards so you get a nice neat finish? Also, can you use fine river sand instead of silica sand?
Great job my friend.
Can the send be mixed when pouring A+B?
To gain a few minutes on aplicacion?
Thanks

where do I get the product you are using/ I need outdoor epoxy UV friendly for my patio
Wondering how it looks now. Do you live up north. Wondering how it wears. How often do i need to do this. And is there a special way to freshin it up or same method. Does it chip peal or hot tire pickup? I see so many of these videos over the years but rarely any followup.

is a bit 'fine' for Winter non slip in areas which get snow and ice.

That's been our experience with epoxy on walks and floors outside.
How does it work in snow? Will the sand make it not slippery? And if you put the grip will a snow plow have no problem with it?
Thanks for the video info. Can you add pigments and or metallic mica to this product?
Can you use epoxy for bathroom walls or kitchen walls? Thank you.
You can if you wanted too.
Very relaxing to watch. Now I know I can fix my driveway.
I didnt even know you could get outdoor epoxy , great vid!!
You cant, this guy doesnt know what he is talking about
hi Jeff this same Epoxy can be used on a patio called cordwood floor is wood logs and concrete
Yup it certainly can! I've used it on drywall, wood, concrete, stone, etc. Thanks for watching & supporting!
Other than changing the color what's the benefit of this product? Bare concrete zero maintenance
Yes you must use eyes protection when cutting, grinding, sanding or any spills. Great job .
I have a concrete slab over my garage and we believe that water is seeping through it into the garage since we constantly get water in there after rain/winter. If we sealed it with this epoxy would that make it weather proof and if so how much time can I expect to get out of it? Thanks for the video.
Good job!, what brand of epoxy you used? I couldn't find it!

I did one of those quikrete DIY molds and the result was not what I expected and I am looking for a way to put cement or something over it to smooth it what do you recommend to do
I like how Jeff doesn’t give two flips about answering questions in the comments.
Assuming this is supposed to last longer than concrete paint? I was thinking of coating my 3ft exposed foundation
Do you have a link to the epoxy you are using??? Would appreciate it...
Awesome bro this floor can handle the sunlight and rain or not
Hi how does this stand up to salt and canadian winters? Also what company product is this?
I have outdoor miniature villages. The frontier town has a creek about 15' give or take and 4" w. It is in the ground partially in the woods. My question is, what could/should/would I put down for the resin to be poured into as I'm guessing right on the soil isn't it.😊 I'm rather tired of the temporary option I currently have.

Think about you're eyes use safety glasses when grinding.. These partials fly fast.. And it happens fast I can tell
Yes absolutely you must wear PPE. My new channel you can see I'm always wearing that. Thanks so much for watching!
Great presentation Two things you should add 1. inform the people how much Product Covers How much SqFt
2. Tell them how much Solvent to Use
"Not This Much" as you stated Say
2oz,3oz, 4oz ect...
Great Job my friend
Thanks so much! I know the product as raised in price over the past few years with costs going up. I will be doing another video on this soon! Thanks so much for watching!

Jeff, By adding solvents such as acetone, lacquer thinner, or denatured alcohol to thin out the epoxy, could they change the integrity of the epoxy itself?
What is the minimal temperature in winter?
It would be great to apply this when it's at least above 8c. The colder it is the longer it will take to dry.
@@JeffLepard I'm about using in minus temperature
Hey where you from and where can I order that product?
Love your video. Very informative and easy to undersand. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching Victoria!
Sorry if I repeat someone else,but how do you best clean your tools afterwards?
How looks like at the end that flor?
How would you go about prices for this stuff because I’m looking to adding this to stuff I do ?
Awesome video have been looking into starting a Epoxy Business & this is some good knowledge 👍🏼🙏🏼
If I do only one coating .. is that sufficient ?
Thank you Jeff for the tip
Great Video! I will be doing this myself and I am looking forward to my project. Thanks for making this video so clear and easy. I will post my outcome when I am done.
Hi Jeff, Thanks for making this video. I wanted to learn how to do this on my own, this video was very helpful, thanks for sharing.
I'm happy it helped you out! Thanks so much for watching!
Great video! Looking to do this to my driveway due to spalling this past winter. Which epoxy sealer would you recommend from home depot or any local hardware store for a laned home driveway (house with rear de attached garage)? Thank you
Can this be used on asphalt?
Will definitely share this, thanks for the knowledge.
I appreciate that! Thanks so much for watching!
Which epoxy do you use that is UV-friendly? Thanks! Great job!
My question too
Can we make epoxy streets? What do you think?
I am from Hyderabad where is it available.and how much cost
Do this epoxy comes clear ???i would like to do it around my fire pit rocks . To make them firm and easy to clean when fall come .
Yes, they come in clear. You have to add color if you don't want it clear.
Yes you can get clear epoxy outdoor and indoor. It works great and its so durable. That's a great idea!
What's your thoughts on concrete outdoor furniture tables and bench seats? They are very old and rough and I need to seal them. I want to put them around my pool area to sit

Hi, Jeff. Like your video, very useful and informative. Where can I get UV EPOXY? Thanks
What's the epoxy brand that you are using?

Hi Jeff can I use it to cover my old marble in my out doors and how durable and scratch resistant is it
I need to paint one driveway and I will to the customer 5 years of warranty, what product do you recommend me ?
Why didn't you add the sand to the epoxy and mix it in is there a problem with doing that
There's a different sand that you mix with the epoxy. That will give you a texture grip. The same that we throw on top of the epoxy is different and it gives the most grip.
@@JeffLepard thank you for that so which is better to throw it on or mix it in all got a pump house floor to do and I have a slab in front of my trailer which I'm going to screen the room in and I want to treat the concrete out there and I know I have to clean it I saw your video and I'm going to use a Degreaser on it cuz I think that'll work the best for me I've had cars parked on it bottom so yeah which would work better throwing it or mixing it
Sand 9s heavy and sinks to bottum
Love this video thanks for sharing! I want to do this to my patio floor
New subscriber. Great informative video. Can the outdoor epoxy be used inside?
Where can I get these epoxy kits from? I take it that you would recommend a particular brand this project will be for outdoors.
Nice work 😊
Can you put this epoxy on a pine deck
Brilliant, loved it all the way,,,,,,,
Hey Jeff this uv epoxy will it work to prevent water and humidity from the concrete selling??
What is the clean up of the mixing rod, rollers and pans?
Pans I just use tray inserts and throw them away after. The roller I just wipe off with a towel or use acetone or gas to get the wet epoxy off. The mixing rod I just let harden and then next time I use a hammer and crack the epoxy off clean. Thanks for watching!
Hi where can I get this epoxy?
who sells it?
Love to see this work man. You did a great job. Can I use it for my outdoor concrete walls or not will this be a good idea
What is the name & purchase link please
Hey boss how much is a job like that????
Why aren't you using eye and nose protection??
Great job
Thanks so much for watching!
Hi jeff cam I use the same epoxy uv friendly product to seal roofdeck of my new house? Or should i stick with cementitous waterproofing?
I would probably stick with the waterproofing products. This does a great job but I would stick to something a bit more flexible.
hit the like button you got it pal!
nice job
Where u find a "UV Friendly" epoxy coating my dude??????
What is the life span of this product...
Very helpful. Thanks.
Why didn t you grind the whole area? Why didn t you open all cracks to improve adhesion?
I did use the floor machine on the entire area. The cracks and epoxy have held up just fine its been over 2 years already. If the cracks were much larger I would have opened them up for sure.
Thank you so much for this video. So glad you did it. Question: I sealed my back patio with grey sealer from Lowes. Find myself doing this every year. Would your proxy prevent me from sealing every year? I want to preserve the concrete patio as it is expose to the elements including snow. It's in Charlotte .
Yes the epoxy sure would prevent you from doing that every year! Jobs that I have done 6 years ago are still there. Just make sure not to use the epoxy at Lowes or home depot its not the same stuff and will flake off. Thanks so much for watching!

If you don't use UV friendly Epoxy what will happen to the Epoxy?
The epoxy could turn yellow and discolor.
I am going to do a job this week 1200 square feet of epoxy around the pool what's your recommendation to me?
@@LuisCarlos-fy6rq that's a great job to have. Just note that by a pool it's going to be slippery when wet. 2 options that you have is a texture grip mixed into the epoxy or on the clear coat or final coat you can throw some silica sand and back roll it. What does your client want?

Very nice 👍
this was a very good informative vid, thanks
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!
great video 👍🏼
what epoxy did you use ? can it be applied over comercial tiles ?
This was enviro epoxy. You could apply it over tiles but its meant for concrete. Thanks so much for watching!
Could I use this over plywood for a flat roof?
You could use that over plywood it will stick to wood as well. I've also used this epoxy on drywall!
Good on ya mate 👍👍
Thanks for watching!
How long do the epoxy last.
To give you an idea I have some some jobs 6 years ago and they epoxy is still there!
Great video... Missing freestyle outro music at the end.
We stopped using the endings it drags the ending on too long.
What exactly was the solvent?
The solvent was used to prolong the hardening to buy me a bit more time. I can find out what it was it is available with the kits.
@@JeffLepard Probably acetone?
That’s pretty cool !
Is there an outdoor clear epoxy that you would recommend?
this it is great job
TAPE AROUND CUT WITH SMALL ROLLER USE BRUSH ON THE CORNERS AND ROLL
Yes that would be fast as well if I did that. Just have to peel the tape fast so it doesn't dry.
