Maybe consider putting a lab surface high wear urethane over top as a final coat, makes the floor scratch resistant and the aluminum oxide additive give a bit more slip resistance. Look good though
I had my garage floor done the same way. The contractor used a hand held fertilizer spreader for the flakes. Finding dropped nuts,bolts and screws is difficult but a large magnet on a handle helps.
I’m on the “no flakes” side for the lost parts thing. Nice look and good install, though. Don’t forget my suggestion for low-level lighting to illuminate under the car. Yes, all my observations relate to dropping things. 😄
My dad has this in his garage. I dropped a tiny rubber o-ring and that damn thing bounced after hitting the floor and rolled away. Took me 30 minutes crawling on the ground with a flash light to spot it. I completely understand where you’re coming from lol
I will warn you if that’s your final floor choice you might want some sort of covering cause stuff gets lost so easily with the flake epoxy flooring. We had it in the first jewelry studio where I learned and we lost small gemstones, metal, pieces of works, etc. It’s a huge hassle so please get yourself something to help things not blend into the floor.
We use epoxy floors with flakes all the time for our sanitair units. We start out with a primer, let that dry for a day, pour or roll one layer of epoxy floor, and spray or sprinkle flakes on that same layer, let that dry for a day, quickly go over it with sandpaper to knock down any high, sharp flakes, and a final layer of clear coat on top.
I have a suggestion for you. Whatever you haul in the trailer if it has tires, let them cool completely before putting back inside. Hot tires plus epoxy is going to pull the paint off.
I feel like. When you start working on your car with success; you become more confident in your abilities which translates to you being more handy in other avenues. Furnace stopped working? Take it apart, fix it. Freezer not freezing? Take it apart, fix it. You want to paint your trailer? Paint it. Idk just something I noticed
For sure😂 I worked in a shop that had these floors and could never find anything I dropped, I don’t work on the car in the trailer so I’m not concerned about that issue! Just for transportation purposes
Flakes are mainly used to hide imperfections in the concrete and grip. Most professionals will put the base epoxy down, sprinkle the chips to rejection, and then sweep up the ones that didn't stick, then roll on a urethane top coat.
You can divide the flakes into several ziplocks based on sections. I did this with glitter so it looked even and I didn’t run out before I covered everything 😅
Just put the flakes on heavy scrap excess when dry sweep off and apply clear coat over top easiest way to have a great looking floor with no light or heavy areas
Use a little grass cedar the little green ones that you can adjust one hole to five holes and it would spit it out while you spin it would make it easier and more consistent grass seed you would be amazed

I honestly don’t mind a dirty floor in a garage. Like you’re going to put the car in there anyway and I assume it’ll get dirty again. So I would’ve left it. But great work 👍
My mom did this kind of floor, its absolutely awful, everything catches on it causing the flakes to rip chunks of the paint from the floor, and it just gets worse from there
As a retired professional paint chip sprinkler. I found the best method was to throw the chips up, like confetti. Way more fun.
Way more professional, productive and better looking too
She actually made a minor mistake: flakes are ment to be salt bae'd to the floor 😂 every flake has to touch her elbow
@@najawassolls243 I use a leafblower and a hopper, goes 20x faster
HAHAHAHA professional paint chip sprinkler
Came to say the same
Would LOVE full videos!!!
I don't get it so many videos just cut off 80% through !

Thinking like a true genius
Team No Flakes as well.
Finding small things is nearly impossible without getting down on the floor with a flashlight and looking for shadows.
Looks absolutely amazing 🙌u make it all look so easy! 😅 keep up the amazing work

such a nice trailer! would love to have one like these, too
Great job, looks really nice. Well done.

I really enjoy your videos.
Greetings from Germany.
Genius Idea! Looks great!
That looks freaking amazing
Looks great! I faced the same dilemma when I painted my garage floors. The walls looked boring so painted them as well.
i wish we had more girls like you interested in crafts and diy projects like this.
I have a suggestion for you. Whatever you haul in the trailer if it has tires, let them cool completely before putting back inside. Hot tires plus epoxy is going to pull the paint off.
Great work! Photos of the finished product would be nice. Thank you!
Your just amazing love you videos all of them 😍
WOW ! Where do you get your energy girl?
Love how it looks!🎉
Great job..! You do good work.
wow! you're amazing
That floor is great for you; I've had it and liked it.

She blew it twice guys. Protect this woman at all costs.
Looks amazing! Can you let me know the epoxy kit name please??
I find her absolutely gorgeous! 😮
Yeppers
Throw them in the air it gives a more beautiful lay once they hit the ground ... I've done a ton of epoxy work with light and heavy flakes
Construction is alot of work respect
Wow. A lot of work. Great job!!
Pretty cool idea for a trailer
Good to see a woman doing that and caring for her things ! Keep up good work !
Great job !!
Nice the paint job looks nice aswell as the floor good job
If u don’t mind me asking what do you do for a living?
Should of put tape on those little rails in the middle, all the flakes went inside there.
looks nice :)
That looks sick bro whattt im gonna do this to my dads trailer
I want to see the after effect of you using the trailer and showing what happens after its first initial use of being coated. Please....
Can anyone tell me why the flakes? Wont it make it harder to find stuff you dropped? I keep seeing it in work and fab shops
For sure😂 I worked in a shop that had these floors and could never find anything I dropped, I don’t work on the car in the trailer so I’m not concerned about that issue! Just for transportation purposes
Flakes are usually applied as a form of grip that gives your shoe, so you don’t slip while walking
It also helps with minor dirt and stains not making the floor look super dirty.
Flakes are mainly used to hide imperfections in the concrete and grip. Most professionals will put the base epoxy down, sprinkle the chips to rejection, and then sweep up the ones that didn't stick, then roll on a urethane top coat.
The flakes are to hide scuff marks on the epoxy paint, especially if it’s walked on before reaching maximum hardness in 30 days.
You constantly remind me that I half-ass a lot of stuff.. 😂 gotta love a perfectionist
You can divide the flakes into several ziplocks based on sections. I did this with glitter so it looked even and I didn’t run out before I covered everything 😅
man i loved doing these floors, i felt like a pretty little flower girl sprinkling paint chips all over the place
Just put the flakes on heavy scrap excess when dry sweep off and apply clear coat over top easiest way to have a great looking floor with no light or heavy areas
Nice Job....
The instructions on those flakes is to hold a handful and toss them directly up. Natural chaos in 4x4 blocks is the best method of distribution.
That's awesome, how much did that trailer run you?
I am loving your videos ❤
Very nice
Looks great dude
I painted mine with grip grit in the paint. Lots of gripping and not alot of slipping! Lolololol
You work hard.
I don’t how she drifts, but she probably has the best garage and the best trailer 😁
good job, you need to clear coat the top now. and for future reference toss the flakes into the air.
What's the point of the flakes? Would drive me crazy thinking there's dirt/debris on the floor 😅. But very nice and detailed work!!! Should look dope!
Damn so talented
Use a little grass cedar the little green ones that you can adjust one hole to five holes and it would spit it out while you spin it would make it easier and more consistent grass seed you would be amazed
I think I just fell in love
I love your videos can i practice?
Same flake they used in my office.A year later , i wish they did require a top clear coat.

Looks great
Good job baby!
Good work 🤙
Clean
Nice job
The constant movement of the trailer is going to make it crack and peel
Woodfiller on concrete?!
You can’t be this slow.
Looks freakn good
How does the coating hold up? Did it last?
When my parents were building our house, we did this in our garage. I still remember helping them throw the chips :)
Always apply the clear top coat!
That looks great. Damn....
God you're stunning.
If you do it again for something else, it's recommended to degrease and completely clean the entire surface.
How do you still look so gorgeous in a sweater and sweat pants
Amazing what OF money can buy
I honestly don’t mind a dirty floor in a garage. Like you’re going to put the car in there anyway and I assume it’ll get dirty again. So I would’ve left it. But great work 👍
This is why I owned a ladder deck :o)
Looks good
Me and my boss used the exact same kit on our work trailer! Pretty much the same process
Oh, interesting. Never seen that done.
I'm interested to know did you weigh the trailer before and after
Did you apply a clear after the flakes?
If you have oil stands, you can use real cat litter for your driveway
I love the look but hate working on flaked floors. I drop a screw and I cant find it to save my life
throw the flakes up in the air works better and faster
Beautiful ❤❤
Good job, but you should wear protective mask because you're working with chemicals
Caked up
Nice
i dont understand why people like this since if you drop a nail or bolt its disappeared since its camouflaged with the floor.
Is there anything that you can't do?😂 mad respect
My mom did this kind of floor, its absolutely awful, everything catches on it causing the flakes to rip chunks of the paint from the floor, and it just gets worse from there
This women would be a good wife ❤
You can buy the apoxy with the flakes already mixed in
I’m glad you explained that purchase cuz it sounded sus the first time you said it 😂😂😂
I wonder if this adds any noticeable weight the the trailer?
First I hear of epoxy in a trailer. Hope it works.
I have just came here to see you beauty 😍
