As an epoxy floor installer myself, I can really appreciate all the hard work that went into your floor. Looks nice, maybe invest in a s26 vac next time though hahaha 👌👌
I think this is so satisfying because vicariously it feels like I am doing all the thousands of chores I know my girlfriend wants me to do around the house. Instead, I am watching a TH-cam video. "I'll get right on that honey!" yeah right :'D
That was an amazing amount of work and the final result shows. I myself would have used a blower, then a hose, let it dry and poured an ENORMOUS AMOUNT of the epoxy in the middle of the floor and let gravity do the rest.
With my OCD I would have taken the opportunity to paint the walls first, then sanded the floor. That way when the the floor done it would all look new. Other wise you could get paint on the new floor doing it after. That’s just me. I’m picky. All and all, you did a terrific job. It looks really good. I need to do the same thing. My garage floor looks like something out of horror movie. Loved the video.
Wow looks awfully painful grinding the floor with the Hilti like that. But i think the end result looks amazing tho. Definitely worth the time and money but do take care of yourself. I did the grinding as well in the past back in my old home, but we jackhammer the whole floor first to lower it by an inch or two before grinding. So i know how it feels like lol it was the worst.
I was doing epoxy resin professionally for quite some time, if you have never done it before, then props.. There were some mistakes here and there. I see you didn't do the other half, if you ever want some tips let me know, especially on a less painful grinding for your lower back =) Also a more friendly and durable epoxy resin flooring for which there will be less maintanence needed (This clean epoxy surface will show all the dirt and scratches. Keep it up, best regards from Slovenia
TheDim3s he may not want to know but I can certainly use some tips!! I tried to do mine last summer and I... kind of really screwed it up (lack of knowledge)
Of course it is worth of spending time and money on it, it looks so good and nice to work in, definitely an improvement! So smooth and shiny... Will you show the process of the second part of it? I would like to see it :)
Tip for next time. When u first lay down the material use a squeegee to spread it all out then go over it with the roller once in one direction go back over in the opposite direction it will save a little bit of time and the product will come out a milllion times better. But the floor looks nice goodjob
Did you do the other half of the garage or had you planned to stop there? I was always wondering how you work in a stop point and then do you do the next area several days later?
Good info video. But did not mentioned what you were added some items into bondcoat apart from acetone, also need mention the name of chemical and their proportion sametime interval of curing
Could you have use a sanding machine like is used for wood floors? Renting one is not that expensive and it would have been faster. No diamond but sand paper is cheap enough.
Andre Will Do It I will assume 1200 £. It is totally worth both the time and the money but not sure if worth the back pain. Andre thank you so much you are a true inspiration.
It feels so much better when u clean your garage, like a good vibe
dang! this guy deserves a killer workshop re-design. true craftsman
Looks beautiful , hard work pays off .
thanks
That’s good work. Very thorough. It came out beautiful!

Awesome finished product Andre, such a satisfying video as always :)
Nice surface! Ready for ice skating.
Mirror finish! looks nice! :) 👍

My back cried when it saw you grinding that floor
It looks so great, like marble. I can wait the 48 hours for that.
hy
I have no patience for prep work but I enjoy seeing other people do it lol

I like it. You did some hard work. I would've just vacuumed and poured it on. Bending/crouching down like that for too long will make me light-headed.
Well, It was worth it. You have a nice floor to work on. Also gives a nice finish to you garage/shop. Part of your job is presentation too :)
Looks very nice - well done
My back hurts and im suffocating just watching this.
Sinqjam Might wanna get that checked out, fam.
thanks
Seriously, I was considering doing something like this myself, but after watching this video, I think I'll get a pro.

you need knee pads when you grind the floors ,then your back whont hurt !
There are special carts a company makes specifically for grinding . Racatac i think . (BackSupport&KneeSupport)
Was the vacuum full?
Love watching you work. Your so throughout and detailed like me. I wished you lived next store so you could help me :/
"dust free" haha.. Nice one mate! Nice job!
2:05 When dust cloud started for sure your vacuum filter get clogged.
I tore up carpeting once when I was fourteen. Good times.
thanks

Just the other half to do now Mate 👍😁🇬🇧🏴
Looks really cool, mate! How much epoxy did you need for how many squaremeters? Is this two-component epoxy?
Tip for next time.

It looks really good man love your videos keep up the good work
Smart move grinding down the floor before doing the finishing work...makes all the difference in the world.
I literally just painted my basement so i feel your pain it takes forever to clean and prep the floor👌
And after he's done sanding he slips into his back brace! 😄
amazing work.. good job..
erratic rolling lead's to erratic finish .all in all good job ✌️
You are a very fast worker.
your back ! dont be rude on yourself ... outch!
Attention to Detail. Hooyah!
That's really nice!
very very nice !
hard work = beautiful floor 👍
Is it compulsory to do epoxy primer before the epoxy finish? Or just 2 coats of epoxy finish is good enough?
Crikey! Mate you one heckuva perfectionist. But hey... Well done
Hey, good to see you uploading a video again!!Nice job btw
Awsome, :-)
White Kaise banaye h
Great job!
Hi Andre, it's been a year now - how well is the epoxy floor holding up? Thinking about doing mine. Thanks.
What is acetone you use for first coat .and in India where I get epoxy and colour for residents floor
Looks great!
Terrific Video, Keep up the good work!
love your channel man, keep up the work!
Video very fast.
Oh boy. That is excellent
I use a blower to blow out the dust to the drive way then rince it away with a hose
Oh god! My back hurts just watching!
I like this work
So satisfying
Good job my friend
Learning so much from you
Hi, would water pressure washer be enough to skip your grinding step?
End results look really good! What product/brand did you use?
Is your workshop just for a hobby or is it related to your job? Any future projects we can look forward to?
At 2x speed he becomes *The Flash* ⚡
i love speed up videos especially when i add 2x more to it.
Also, did you decide to paint the walls after? video Link?
Great work

This type work what is rate of per Sq. Ft and what is Life period. Pl suggests.
Do you need to use floor leveler first if floors are uneven?
It will never be that clean again!

probably not, but it'll be a lot easier to sweep and clean in the future.
Why not "wash" the floor with water to insure no dust remains? Obvs wait until it drys after.
Wait you used polyurethane construction glue as the caulking?
you will see all little stains on a white surface though. but great work!
I remember when i was 7 I watched my dad do this
thanks
so beautiful sir..... I love it
9.30. The moment when you realise that you forgot to add the hardener.
thanks
Where get that epoxy and the name of brand ?
Do you keep the restored tools for yourself, or do you sell them?
Looks good!
Smooooooooooooooooooth
thanks
I just fell in love...
NNNNNice!!!!!! Applause!!!!
Are you gonna redo the walls to?
Andre Will Do It Would love to see videos of the renovation process
Great I love your time lapse videos! They are so satisfying!
What are the benefits of epoxy in the floor?
Wooow we get it, you have a flat floor without cracks. How long have you been a billionaire?!
Subbed. Hows your floor? No peel? I will watch your vid again when i do mine this summer.
SMOOTH AF (:
Odd video but kinda cool
How much do you need for this place ? I have 50qm in my Garage 6x9 Meters.
Where did you buy those work pants? Who makes them?
Did your back hurt from all the sanding
Nice job fantastic.
I want white floors all over my house (living room, kitchen etc.) Do they get dirty easily? scuff marks?
Epoxy paint is really wear resistant and you can clean it same way like tile floor.
...nice work, does that gloss shine tend to be slippery ?
Bob Joncas havent finished the video yet but if you throw aluminum oxide sand into it it adds grip (i do this for a living)
thanks,i wasn't sure how this worked,since it said it was finished after drying.
Np man you throw it down after rolling it out
Do you have links to the products you bought?
Could you have use a sanding machine like is used for wood floors? Renting one is not that expensive and it would have been faster. No diamond but sand paper is cheap enough.
KnowledgableEd
You can rent the grinder for a day at the Home Depot
What product did you use? Did you clear the top?
Yes call me 9960419280
Which epoxy did you use
How do you make sure the floor is perfectly levelled?
Thank you for your response. And how mich did it cost you in total?
Andre Will Do It I will assume 1200 £. It is totally worth both the time and the money but not sure if worth the back pain. Andre thank you so much you are a true inspiration.
Superb!
Love it!!!
That must have been very costly. How much was all that resin?
Thats a lot! But if it works it probably pay off the investment. BTW I wish I had your work space!
Cheers and keep the videos coming!
