DIY

I’m guessing mix martial arts lol

It's a floor sander using 80 grit sand paper.

@@rjsanders1981 Why sand after the flakes and first coat of clear coat?

@@bubthegreat1 Usually to make the floor smoother.

It's more expensive than epoxy or polyaspartic coatings. You can inquire about pricing from BASF if you'd like.

the grinder takes off the top layer so theres nothing left to etch. etching is an alternative to grinding cut takes too long as you have to wait for it to dry plus grinding removes uneven parts. IO think this floor had a coat on already so it had to be grinded

I started grinding with a 7 inch angle grinder. That'll take forever! I'm so frustrated! Lol

The main goal of the MMA coating system is to have a floor that looks new for the lifetime of the home. Also the 8 hour install time with 1 hour full cure is a great bonus.

just did this in my stock height 1st gen tacoma pulling a trailer with a ball hitch. ez pz.

You might want to re-read the description and other comments. This is not epoxy, it's MMA - a totally different material and process. It's been in place two years this month, with nearly year-round non-trivial hobby automotive work being done on the floor and it looks almost like the day they laid it down. Definitely zero peeling.

@@dansmith9421 Thanks for your reply Dan. What is the average cost for a 2 car garage, complete system. thanks

@@kleberoliveira1887 We charge about $1,500 per vehicle bay to install this system. So two car garage about $3k, 3 car about $4,500. It also has a lifetime warranty with one day complete install. You can drive on in same day! www.specialtycoatings.us

This is MMA not epoxy. It flash cures in about 45 minutes. It's almost too fast to work with.

In know (Methyl Methacrylate) very well they dry just under 2 hours to "stick to the book". The job looks good anyway . Good luck 👍

@@bakdfuqup9882 MMA fully cures in about 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on the air temperature and amount of activator added to it. Look into BASF MMA SRS systems and you can see for yourself. assets.master-builders-solutions.basf.com/en-us/mbs_mastertop_srs_overview_brochure.pdf

It sounds like it needs another coat. I would apply another coat of the sealer and it should even out the sheen. Very easy to do, if questions call me at 503-626-2002.

typically it's about $1,500 per vehicle bay in the garage. So standard two car around $3,000, and 3 car around $4,500. It all depends on your square footage though.

Not really, only if you hold a flame to it. Once cured and installed it's a 100% solid and not flammable.

@@rjsanders1981 I meant during installation, not the finished product. Obviously if the finished product was "flammable as hell" it wouldn't be allowed to be used inside inhabited structures. I'm pretty sure you knew what I meant, but I'll play and elaborate for you.

Probably a diamond grinder

That was an HTC diamond grinder with 25 grit diamond metals.

@@rjsanders1981 what if you have a painted floor to start with. not epoxy, just regular paint. can you still grind it?

@@blyles1000 yes, paint is easier to grind off than epoxy. Both can be removed with a diamond grinder.

Working time with MMA's are typically 15-20 minutes. Once the initiator is added you are on the clock. Depends on the system, here they are just using a gauge rake which is similar to a cam rake. I have seen some installs go in with an 1/8" notched squeegee though, just depends on the thickness you want/need.

I was the installer on this. We did not use a gauge rake, we used an 18 inch roller to spread and back roll each coat. Once you mix up the activator into the MMA material you have about 10 minutes to get it down and spread out. It will fully cure in about 25-30 minutes depending on the temperature.

This was a 3-car garage and it cost a little over $4k. That was by far the most expensive bid I got, but this is special stuff (MMA). I got epoxy and polyaspartic bids ranging from about $2.2K to $3.8k. None of those were going to be this many layers, thickness, nor warranted to this level.

Good question

Cost is based regional surroundings.... I have a 2 car, 24'x24' (575 sq ft) and the cost was 3K for North GA. Job was done exactly like video. WORTH EVERY CENT!

in GA that is a good deal!

We charge about $1,500 per vehicle bay to install this system. So two car garage about $3k, 3 car about $4,500. It also has a lifetime warranty with one day complete install. You can drive on in same day!

Robert Sanders you guys did a great a job , didn’t scimp out on anything , you guys are really the whole nine yards !

So do Dan get a discount for doing the video and posting it on RUclips?

@@greenidguy9292 No discount, we weren't aware he posted it until after the job was completed.
