A garage is more than the basic utility storage space for your tools and automobiles. Garages are ideal for automobile storage, workshops, extended storage from the house and anything else you might feel like experimenting with. A garage is a common feature of the ordinary American home, with 63 per cent of all residences in the country having one. Owning or managing a garage, it's important to understand how to maintain them and what issues you could face along the way.
One of the best places to start for garage maintenance is garage floor coating. Based on the purpose of your floor coating, the type of material available as a substrate, and the amount of exposure it will get, there is a lot to be taken into account to decide what type of coating suits your floor the best.
ArmorPoxy epoxy coating is a high performance product; they offer unlimited possibilities to safeguard your garage floors and maintain a high-end finish.
Here are some of the advantages of having an epoxy floor for your garage:
- Preserve and Seal Your Concrete.
During the winter, epoxy flooring safeguards your concrete from deterioration caused by salt whenever you take your car in through a winter storm, the snow and road salt melt and attack your concrete, creating pitting and cracking.
Your car's fluids (oil, gas, brake fluid, etc.) seep and drip onto the concrete, causing deterioration and stains. A high-performance industrial epoxy coating preserves your concrete, allowing your garage floor to last longer with low-key maintenance. A high-grade epoxy coat will also protect your floors against UV exposure, heat, chemical, scratches, and abrasion. We recommend our ArmorClad 100% solids epoxy kit that shields your garage floor against heavy foot and automobile traffic.
- No Mold = No Problem
Concrete could be an organic breeding ground for mold, mildew, and germs due to it’s porous nature. It serves as a sponge, absorbing moisture and creating damp conditions ideal for mold and mildew growth. Epoxy floors are water-resistant, seamless solutions that don't allow mould, mildew, or germs to form. This ensures a healthier, cleaner environment and eliminates issues associated with moisture absorption.
Cleaning and upkeep of epoxy garage floors are simple.
ArmorClad epoxy coated floors are built to last for years while also being easy to clean and maintain. Because dirt, dust, and grime can cause micro-scratches and diminish the appearance of your floor, regular cleaning will help it last longer. Mopping with water is usually all that is required to achieve a clean floor. A basic floor detergent could be used at suggested dilution ratios if an epoxy floor requires a more thorough cleaning. Dirt, dust, and grime are less likely to stick, reducing the need for intensive cleaning and helping maintain the floor’s appearance over time.
- Increases the amount of usable space in your home.
A bright, clean, and premium-looking epoxy flake floor will transform your garage into something like a vibrant, tidy, and aesthetically pleasant space to convert to many types of spaces. Your epoxy-coated garage can be transformed into a private gym, man cave, workspace, or extra room for events and gatherings, sports practice area, and extending your living space. A bright, premium epoxy-coated floor adds a polished look, transforming your garage into a multipurpose space.
