My shop pics i promised you guys

just some pics .of what i get to work on all day

Very nice shop Paul!!! I like a nice clean and well organized shop. Epoxy for shop floors used to be one of the products my company made. Who did the floor?? I may know them.

Aaaaaah, nope don't know them! But since they did it, I would walk very lightly or yer boots will be retreads!

Hey, Paul yer ought to git yer own show on the Speed Channel!

well the guy that did it was Pablo oliva lol . witch would be paul oliva as myself lmfao this epoxy **** sucks . we ground the floor down virgin . and the **** still peels . i put down 4 grand worth of material . and i had to patch three diffrent spots . hot sticky tires rips the chit right up . follwed the directions to a tee .not a good subject gumba!:roflmao:

Oh man sorry to hear that. I can't even guess how many shop floors I sold and supervised with great success. Including NYC sanitation truck repair garages, metro bus and many aircraft hangars, marine corp m1a tank repair shops, on and on. Your prep sounds right so the product is a shirt one. Please tell me you didn't get it from H Depot or Lowes?

na got it from u coat direct!three step even acid washed the florr and pressure washed after and rinsed with soap and pressure washed again and let it dry for a week before application . not happy but it is a shop floor . and it holding up oik in high traffic areas

If'n you need to hire a guy to sweep up and put tools away, I'm availlable.

comon man i know you just want to drive the finished toys ! you can come down any time you want charlie ! got plenty of cars to do tire tred checks with .:roflmao:

Ucoat is passable. Have to go with Duraltex, Silaguard, Dexotex and a few others. "Pro grade". About $50 gallon. Many DIY can do it. BUT if you have oils in concrete very spec treatment needed. Hidden floor killer is hydrostatic water pressure. Ground water pushing up from under concrete. Won't show water just vapor pressure. Spec primer needed. Pros will get about $3-4 a square foot.

you know i got carpet under the lifts it all good in that area i think its deep in the concrette in certain areas that it pulls up with the hot tires . the epoxty did not bite good

Epoxy should bond good enough that the concrete should come up with the epoxy . Something either interfered with the bond or product not 100% epoxy resin. Product Description should read "100% epoxy solids". And the mix ratio should either be 1:1 or 2:1. If not, good chance it's a polyester product disguised as an epoxy. Polyesters don't bond well to concrete. They absolutely must have an epoxy (real epoxy) primer. Hot tires don't scare a real epoxy. The term epoxy is overused and abused. Them we have shirt epoxies like h depots.

ya 1 part hardener to 1 part color then 1 part hardner to 1 part clear coat xylene based

Place is too clean

yuzed ta have one F-1 then I sold it.:witsend:
