as Mark D mentioned - the professional videos left me skeptical to attempt my own garage/woodshop. But yours was so well done that I know my wife and daughter and I can do it now. Thanks.
So cool to hear that, lemme know if everything goes as planned ;)
Good job . I sell epoxy coatings for a major manufacturer so I liked the way you stressed safety and most importantly the surface prep and using the correct tools or applicators.
Ron Stark Thanks a lot, do you sell in Canada?
These videos are very well done. They are to the point, we'll organized, well shot. Thanks for not wasting our time :)
I think you could build shoes better with a block on the heel that prevents them from slipping forward.
If you are doing a one off job screw the plywood spike plate to an old pair of shoes. Professional spike shoes sell for around $80
True I have a lot of contractors that use a floor buffer with a fabric sandpaper pad it helps with the lines and score marks from the diamond grind and not quite as much dust.
Excellent series. Right to the point and explained very well. Thank you.
Great to hear! I'd love if you can share with your friends and family, it would help keep this channel running healthy, thx again!!
This guy should do all the how to videos on TH-cam.
Stangtabulous You are awesome, thanks for your encouragement, you are the reason I do what I do, thanks once again ;)
I agree. Dude. Dont stop. Its so easy to learn from you. Me. Im just confusing when i make videos. Laugh
Great video. Easy to follow and informative without all the annoying fluff. Right to the point. Why doesn't everyone make videos like this. Subscribed!
siberwolf33 Thanks for the great comment!!!
Hey Siberwolf. I also liked the straight talk epoxy floor coat video. The videos on TH-cam make it appear too "Dangerous" for the average homeowner. Besides, a lot of them are Epoxy companies who want you to call them to do the job for you. This guy reminds me of "Chris Fix', the TH-cam car mechanic. I hope he was gifted some pro nailed shoes for doing such a nice job
This is such a good video series. So easy to understand. I did our restaurant floors and did not do these steps like sanding and it has been pealing. Very frustrating. Ty.
My pleasure buddy, if you could share the series that would be really helpful ;)
The shoes killed me 😂😂
sérieux, t’es sa coche, explication, vidéo et montage. merci
Wow merci! Tu vien de faire ma journee, merci beaucoup!
Super série et bien filmé!
EVA LANDRY merci Eva!!
You could of screwed threw an old pair of shoes to the board add washers under the souls. Very good videos. You do good work!
I wanted to add you can use them to aerate the lawn too
Sure thing, thanks a lot buddy ;)
Great video! Im thinking of an epoxy project this winter
Great! It's fun to do and the results are unbeatable for the price ;)
I install polyurea with a polyaspartic finish with decorative chips you should look into it you will save your self a lot of extra steps and time
I will, thanks!
Hi, is the coating thick enough to hide imperfections on the floor itself, I poured the self leveling compound but I see some uneven spots still? Hope you see this mesage
To some degree yes, but anything more they'll show through but be smoother.
This project was completed in 2016 ? If so can you report on the quality of the job 5 years later. Would you use the Sika product again ? How is it wearing ?
Thank you for this great series of videos.
A 100% buy!!
Très bien expliqué ; )
Merci cher ;)
Man, I'm glad I watched this series. I'm going to rip out the carpet in my living room and paint the floor. Thanks for your in-depth instructions!
Pleasure's all mine :)
spike shoes could easily be tested and improved beforehand.
💯😁
Nicely done
Thanks buddy !
Anybody out there tryna make your own glue the sole to the wood plank with screws. 🤙👍
💪💪💪
How has this epoxy held up since you've installed it?
Perfectly well, it's on there for good. I did drop an axe 1 week after the install and broke off a 1" x 1" piece (concrete and all) but the epoxy itself is very durable. Only thing I could say is that it will stain with some products like food coloring and UV light, so take that into consideration, hope this helps ;)
Good job!
great video
Thanks a lot !!!
Youre welcome and I can appreciate the time you took into making this great because I also make youtube vids so keep up the great work man and have a great day :)
Once again thanks a lot !
I wonder if this kind of method will works good on vertical spot. Im planning to resurface with epoxy at my hometown skatepark.
+Winsome Losesome I really don't know if epoxy is good for vertical applications, you would have to call SIKA and ask them, they are the epoxy pros ;)
Epoxy can be used vertically but it must be thickened and applied in thin coats. I did a high end horse stable project we epoxied the walls of the horse showers
Great series, also from Canada, live in Alberta, have been researching epoxies, how has this product been holding up ? And where did you get it, I've not seen it out here, also curious could you throw color chips into this while wet?
It's been holding up great, no complaints! I got it at a store called Givesco here in Montreal, not too many other people have Sika products ;)
How does it hold up after all this time, i'm thinking of doing my garage floor
Perfectly!
Where can you buy epoxy supplies in Montreal?
Givesco, on henri-bourassa ;)
Bonjour je crois que tu vien du Québec avec ton accent et moi aussi. Je voulais savoir si le produit performe encore très bien et si tu ferait quelque que chose de différent ou différent produit car je vais faire mon garage de maison 16'x19', combien de produit que jai besoin et il vendre tu un autre produit que je peux mettre a la fin pour les rayon UV? Merci
Oui la methode et le produit on durer et sont pareille comme jour un. UNe chose que j'aurait fait differement, sa aurait ete de melanger moins vite parce qu'il a eu des bulles qui ce sont former et on rester dans le melange quand je l'ai appliquer. Pour la quantiter, ton fournisseur va te dire combien tu en as de besoin, et oui je croit tu peux acheter un anti-UV, mais informe toi ;)
WOWWWWW such a great result👌👌 so shiny and Smooth HAHAHAHA!! Love it!!!! Thanks for all your TIPS and tricks ☺️☺️👌👌
Yes it's very shinny....and slippery lol
Thanks I need this
+Danny Vinny you are very welcome friend, thank you!
One question. After this 2 years, how was the flooring? any crack? I want to start my own project in my house. Thanks
Zero cracks! It's all in the preparation ;)
Thanks, I will document my process and show you my results.
Where in Quebec did you get the Sika 261? Also They recommend using Sika 156 as a primer before using Sika 261
Hey, I didn't use a primer for my floor, been holding up great ever since! I got it at Givesco on Henri Bourassa, in Montreal.
@@Got2Learn Givesco, that's exactly what I was thinking. Thanks.
Np buddy ;)
Thanks for the video. I purchased lawn spike shoes that cost $10 so that is not expensive.
I see professional installers cost a lot of money. How happy were you doing it and are you still happy with how it is holding up to wear and tear?
Yep, still very happy! The part exposed to the sun did yellow out a bit but it's fine!
@@Got2Learn I'd heard that can happen.
Sucks, but it doesn't really matter ;)
Sorry no I'm in Louisiana USA I sell Corotech which owned by Benjamin Moore and sell Rustolum also
That's ok, the only thing I regret doing, is doing the final grinding with a 4 1/2" grinder. What I should have done is use a commercial grinder because now when there is sun, we see the grind marks, nothing really serious but it's something a client would probably not accept lol.
Is it a bad idea to use epoxy on a wooden subfloor for an outdoor shed?
That's a good question. I am guessing it would work but I would call the epoxy company before doing it, let us know if it's doable :)
Got2Learn alright. Thanks for replying!
No problem!
Yes it will work. I used Sika epoxy on my wood shop floor 4 years ago and it looks great!!!
Grrat to hear that it works!
Wondering how this held up over the last 6 years?
I moved out since, but I was there for 3 years after I did it and it was like new.
You could also have used some old shoes and screwed them to the shelves
Is it slippery?
Yes it can get slippery at times, but I guess that's the price to pay for if you want that smooth looking finish.
To avoid it getting slippery, add sand mixture to the epoxy.. Rust olenum provides that for their epoxy paint
Your surface prep was beautiful, but the application wasn't that sharp. Still you did a great job man!
Thanks 👍
Had a problem with the drain?
What do you mean?
@@Got2Play As if the drain was a person you didn't like/ had a problem with so you said F um and went over top of him/ it. Humor through message.. never works out.
Nah, I just never got to putting a metal plate instead of that piece of plywood lol
What s solution A and B brau
Mech Dyson Part A is the Resin and part B is the hardener ;)
Got2Learn thank you brav
Mech Dyson No problem friend ;)
You needed to convert those clogs into sandals by adding a strap for your heel, that's all.
;)
xD haha
She still your girlfriend after you made her work?
Nope lol
