The epoxy kits used in this video are:
concretefloors...
We have been installing floors since 1994. Both polished concrete and epoxy flooring systems.
Visit our website concretefloors...
In 2019 we decided to introduce our materials developed for us to the public.
Now our materials are available in our online store:
concretefloors...
The materials we sell are the same materials that we have been installing for over 20 years. We have very extensive knowledge of all products and almost every concrete condition imaginable.
We will share our knowledge with you so you can install as good a floor as possible.
Email me direct jason@concretefloorsolutions.com if you have any questions about anything.
I have to admit I do concrete repair work, but this is on another level.
Now that is a serious generator. You are first class all the way. The kind of person I like to hire. Successful enough to have all the best tools and still doing the work.
Thanks for watching.
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions I think you could be more responding to people who are offering you excellent compliments on your work other than thanks for watching I mean you only had 49 comments you can be a little bit more grateful
I greatly appreciate that you take the time and thoroughly explain what and why you are doing. Excellent channel and keep it up.
Same here!! So appreciative if for style. I'm learning so much. In think I've watched every video two or three times. Never get old. I don't have any mechanical or industrial training but you've helped my 12 year old daughter and me through several projects at home. Our garages look so bomb. Doing my dad's giant shop next! Get to do a big grinder on that one! So excited.
Your team does awesome work I learn so much watching your videos thx so much 😀
I am going to assume you didnt have time to reprimer the area around the cleanout? Thanks for sharing, very interesting. Charles
correct, we did solvent wipe that area first the aid in penetration of the top coat.
Concert is a beautiful material that doesn’t get much love in the house. That is just what I wanted to do with my living and dining room floor but couldn’t find anyone to do it and Everyone thought it was a silly idea. That’s for the video that I can show all those “nay sayers”
So You didn't screw up...the Concrete Contractors did...they didn't clean off the top of the clean out after the concrete was poured and finished...
Nice man, I’m really liking your channel. That trailer is nice! I’m in the same industry just 1 step ahead of you. At the beginning of this year I invested in a ride on floor scraper. So we’re the guys that go in ahead of you to get the bulk of it up so you can grind and what not. It’s cool because we never really get to see finished product. (I came from floor Installation but my knees started giving out) How long have you been in business? I run a 12ft TA trailer for now since I only have the one piece of equipment. It often ends up looking like yours at the end of a long busy 3 month run lol
We have been in business since 1994.
Thanks for watching.
Is it necessary to acid etch the concrete and wash with detergent on a dirty concrete floor? Or just diamond scratch and vaccum will work
Diamond grind to create a scratch and vacuum. That is it. The primer that we use will penetrate into the concrete.concretefloorsolutions.com/product/500-sq-ft-solid-color-epoxy-floor-kit/
Hey Jason, great video. Thank you for making such informative content. As someone who started my own concrete coating company just 2 years ago, I very much appreciate your videos and have learned a ton through them.
I just wanted to give you a heads up in case you weren't aware but the "Visit our online epoxy store" and "shop now" links on your website home page don't seem to be working. Ive tried on both my phone and computer because I was looking to purpose some of your polyurea crack filler but your website looks to be having issues. Just thought id give you a heads up if you didn't know.
I appreciate that, yesterday we encountered some type of an error and now the website developers are working on it. I'm hoping it's up in the next 24 hours.
Amazing trailer and hard worker
Once a set of diamonds glaze over, can they be reconditioned and reused or are they garbage?
yes, typically you need softer concrete to open them back up. sand works with some water normally too.
amazing job!
good tip on feathering the edges in a circular pattern, i am still new and like to ride the wall in a straight line, but it sure does cause more work later
would you say you guys do more polishing or epoxy?
probably 50/50. I prefer epoxy, less grinding and you know what your going to get when done.
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions for sure like the one video you had all them crazy cracks in it but like you tell the customer beforehand you don't know what you're going to run into once you start grinding you're here to make it shiny not rebuild the place
That is one nice rolling shop.
Thank you
Great job
Do you guys do quartz? Be cool to see a video on that
We do, I don't believe we have a video of it though.
whats your process for checking how hard or soft the concrete is? do you have a mohs test? Or can you just tell?
We used to use the Mohs test, but I found it extremely unreliable. It got to the point where I could just tell by looking at it for the most part.
It is very important to have every set of diamonds available, that way no matter what you run into you are prepared for it.
Do you guys do other types of epoxy l supervised building food processing factories for 25 years some floors we used 10 to 12mm thick sand/epoxy mix steel trowelled we called it shoreshield ( heavy duty epoxy floors)also we used highbuild epoxy approximately 5 to 6 mm thick mainly used on clean rooms used air removing rollers to prevent fisheye appearing in the epoxy etc also used flake system on laboratory's floors but sanded after the flake had dried and applied 3 coat's of polyurethane we tend to used roll on epoxy in maintenance areas were we need to keep the floors cleaned
on polished concrete i would have used a carborundum/silica carbide stone as to not take the skin off just etch .! gl
What does it cost per sq ft to do something like this.
do you need a cdl for your truck and trailer setup
Yes I did
What grit do you use on your hand grinder
Does filling the saw cuts risk the concrete cracking in the future?
It does not create cracking, concrete has a mind of its own, if it's going to move it will crack. That is a risk everyone takes with concrete
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions I think his question was when you fill in the control joints will that Force the concrete to crack in other places instead of the control joints would you be creating or forcing it to crack in other places I believe the answer would be no those control cracks are still there that epoxy is not going to stop them control joints from taking on the load of a crack they are still expanding and contracting even though they're filled
what would you say all this cost? did you start your company with all this right away? would you say you spend less by getting the loan to just get the good stuff vs working your way up?
Hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is a lot of money. No we did not start with all this equipment. But I did learn the hard way that it is well worth the extra expense to get the good stuff.
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions absolutely if you have the right tool for the job it's like no work at all
How long is the trailer? I’ve been waiting forever to see the inside.
36' maybe you were the one who commented asking to see the trailer.
What trailer size would you recommend to do this kind work ? is 36’ the minimum?
@@pauloesquadrao If you are going to have the same amount of equipment, you almost need to have 36 foot. If you're doing residential work, I would try to keep it 20 feet or less. Otherwise access can be very difficult into driveways etc.
Thanks for the answer I really appreciate 👍
What size aluminum oxide you broadcast ?
#36 GRIT
how long is the trailer
36'
epic
why you add ammonium oxide ?
It is aluminium oxide and it’s use to make the floor anti slip. (Like a sandpaper if you can see what I mean)
@@charger440 Yup! It's the same as salting an icy walkway, it helps keep you from sliding when the floor is wet...
that cleanout looked annoying to deal with. failure on both the plumber for making it too short, and the concrete crew for just burying it and not masking/forming around it.
It was a bit frustrating, I wanted to show how to deal with it when in between coats. Had I known that was there when we started, I would have feathered that out 12".
@@ConcreteFloorSolutions I don't think it was a big deal at all you did an excellent job you did exactly what you were supposed to do and covered the contractors ass no questions asked no harm no fail well done professional
that trailer has to be heavy
It's got a 15,000 Lb. load capacity so the trailer itself likely weighs 7,500-10,000 Lbs. empty...Not sure what kind of truck is needed to Legally tow it, but it'll be heavy enough to require a Commercial Registration...
CDL required / commercial reg, Chevy Silverado / Duramax diesel.
