I know someone who's a Fla. Gators fan :twothumbs. That floor looks like glass. Is that epoxy coated? Looks good.

Yes it's epoxy coating. I worked with a company out of South Carolina called Wolverine Coatings. They normally deal with industrial stuff. But they are branching out into the DIY world. I was one of their "test subjects" Nice product and excellent company to deal with.

The top coat is a clear coat. But, it's also their bottom bonding coat. This stuff sticks to almost anything. After it hardens completely in 4-7 days it very tough as well as chemical resistant. It dries to the touch and walk on it about 8-10 hours. They say if you have a leak or spill it will not stain and you just wipe it off an it stays glossy. I guess I'll find out. My97 GTP has a small leak so I cantest that theory out.

Just beautiful ! Was going to go with a kit from Lowe's or Home Depot but after seeing your floor, no doubt I'll be going to Wolverine.

Their public supplier is www.alphagarage.com (http://www.alphagarage.com). Fred's email is [email protected]. He sells the Wolverine products. I delt with Wolverine directly as part of their "demonstration" promotion. But Fred is a good guy to deal with.

Yep Gator fan here. And I applied the coating. They just sold it to me and gave me advice.

So approximately how much $ per sqft do you have in the materials? Looks great! My POS floor paint (Behr) is lifting and is impossible to clean.

If you are in the SoCal area check out this thread. They are looking for people to use as test subjects.

Do to my arrangment with the company I can't say what I paid. I received a discount for taking pics and writing about my experiences on a cpl of garage forums. It is more expensive than concrete paint but well worth it. This stuff is industrial stuff not normally used by the DIYer. But they are trying to change that. Drop Fred a line at his email listed above.
