Leggari Hardwood Overlay kits are show stoppers every time! You’ll have all the materials you’ll need to complete an industrial-Grade Concrete Overlay Hardwood technique that will never wear off. It’s thin so it won’t complicate door thresholds or create tripping hazards. It will follow the contours of your concrete so there’s no need to make the floor perfect before installing. It can also go vertical. No more grout to clean! Imagine beautiful hardwood in your garage, or around a pool!
Choose between 4mm (about 1/8″) tape, or for more accentuated lines, 6mm (Recommended) (about 1/4″) tape. The tape size you choose will determine the width of the gap between each wood plank you make; these can also be called ‘grout lines’, although they’re not filled with grout. The color and look of the grout lines between each wood plank will be the look of the concrete you’re going over. Each Hardwood Overlay Kit comes with enough tape to do 4″-12″ wide wood planks (or larger). The larger your planks the less tape you’ll use.
These floors are incredibly durable and mimic traditional Hardwood floors. Leggari’s Hardwood Overlay System is cost-effective and easy to install. They are 100% UV stable and can be installed inside or out. Now you can put hardwood in your garage to park on, or even around your pool! Our Hardwood Overlay Kits go right over your existing interior or exterior concrete. They’re easy to install and easy to maintain.
IMPORTANT:
WB Urethane Top Coat recommended for indoor applications and WB Sealer for Outdoor applications. Both offer fantastic chemical resistance and durability.
Hardwood Overlay, once sealed, can be slippery when wet, much like tile. Although, this can be minimized for exterior installations by not sanding as much when the installation process recommends it.
This kit includes Concrete Overlay, Liquid Polymer, Stain, Grout Line Tape, and a Top Coat. This kit does not allow for different colored grout lines in between the wood planks, the grout lines will be the color of your concrete.
Once your kit is purchased we will email the step-by-step tutorial videos on how to install this kit. These tutorials will be on the emailed receipt and sent to the email you use during the checkout process.

The instant gratification when you pulled the tape to show the grout lines.......AMAZING!!!
I appreciated the dust protection with the masks/respirators. YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!
Thank you!
I’ve been watching you guys for a while and I must say that I’m impressed with not only what appears to be a great product, but your in-depth explanation and direction of the product and more importantly, the process. Thank you for your professionalism. If I may suggest (as a teacher/instructor) that an extreme close-up of the final product. Laying the camera lense directly on the surface with light emanating from behind/above and side/in front of the camera will give us little people a better idea of what the finished job will look like. Again, thanks a million for great instruction product and process.
Thank you!
I absolutely love this video! I only wish I came across it earlier before I did my own project. Awesome video!
Leggari products, always a hit🔥🔥🔥
Thank You!
Yo this is dope guys!!!! You guys do some really creative next leavel stuff!
Thank you!
Как же приятно наблюдать за работой профессионалов. Вы молодцы
What if my basement doesn’t have any of those cuts you are talking about and it is just a single slab pour? Is that okay? Also, do we need to get it perfectly level before we start?
So cool, turned out beautiful! Thinking I can try doing my kitchen floor. Got to see which process is cheaper first and looks better. I'm so hoping for this.
How much boss
Thank You!
You can use the DeWalt vacuum attachments to that Makita so you dont have the blue tape connection. It has helped us with easy, quick connections.
Thank You!
Great job I’ll be ordering kit soon
Order 500 ft.² of black high gloss with gold
Thank You!
I love this!!!
Thank you for watching!
I want this in my garage ❤🎉 So gorgeous
Thank you! Check out the different color options here 👉 leggari.com/order-flooring/#hardwood-overlay-kits
Still confused how you guys got the hardwood texture look? After you guys spread the concrete and troweled, sprayed, sanded, did it just naturally look like it had wood grain or did the trowel you use to level the cement have some sort of grain texture when you leveled it out?
Wonderful
Thank you
@@LeggariProducts im really starting my project in Morocco because of you
Awesome!
gorgeous
Thank you!
Awesome
Thank you!
Nice 👍
Thanks you!
Nice
Thank You!
So you are creating the woodgrain by using the trowel long ways?
Correct!
What about for outdoor broken concrete cement house foundation where a house was torn down? Would I use a similar technique?
Contact customerservice@leggari.com and they can help you with that question have a great day!
I'm just curious about what you used to get the wood grain look
We use a pool trowel and run it long ways with your planks and it leaves behind those high ridges that you come back a sand off with a floor sander to expose the wood grain color! Thanks for watching!
Smart not to show that post huh 🙄
Do you just place those scrubbing pad under the brush on the sunbelt are they mounted or locked in position or is just the weight from the machine keeps them in place?
Not sure exactly what step you are talking about? Can you be more specific, are you talking about autoscubbing?
Oh that’s so awesome. My garage floor is always wet and damp. How can I stop it.
Get a dehumidifier to dry out surface, get Ardex Rapid Set Moisture barrier Get enough to put it down at 150 square feet per kit (it will say 200 sq. feet but you want it to look good on the surface. it normally goes under floors.) mix one kit at a time, squeegee it back roll it, actually is a black metal flake, you can broadcast vinyl chips into it as you go. then a clear urethane on top of that: 2 coats. No more moisture. Not cheap epoxy but it works. DUMP 2 part products on the floor when mixed.
Thanks for watching! Oh no, Not sure definitely have a professional check it out!

Thank you 🙏
Wow!!
Thank You!
If I’m doing this on a new construction slab exactly how much/which machine do I need to prep? It’s not sealed or anything? Floor sander and clean?
Shotblast the floor to take off the cream layer to ensure a good bond!
@@LeggariProducts really? I didn’t expect that for a brand new slab! If I can’t find the shot blaster HD has a tool called a “concrete prep tool” do you know if that would work?
@@rachelt7626 You can also grind the floor with a diamond wheel, on a floor grinder, shot blasting gives you a better profile tho.
Can you put a Polyaspartic Top Coat on this process to have a stronger wear layer with Stronger UV Protection ?
Leggari Urethane topcoats are all you need and is 100% UV stable!
How did you get those lifted looking grain lines? Nice job btw
@@LeggariProducts I meant the white, wood looking grains in the tile fields. It looked like white lifted wood grains. Thx for the reply.
@@alphapimp We used a concrete pool trowel attached to a pole walking with your wood planks back and forth, and it leaves all those high ridges that you sand off to expose the wood grain color
@@LeggariProducts very cool, thank you!
I was thinking the same thing. I can't see the replies. Maybe it's my signal.
@@tdmallet let me know if u can see the replies with better signal
Does this style flooring have similar durability as epoxy or not quite?
It is much more durable then epoxy!
I would blame sunbelt for not giving you the corresponding vac setup for that blaster. That machine is made for forward. Without the proper CFM it will either not reclaim well enough or dump all shot constantly. Usually need a 2 motor setup for that machine.
Wish I could afford 🤔. Everything is so good!!
Thanks for watching!
Do you guys ever chemically etch after shot blasting?
No, a quality shot blaster will do the trick
would like to see how you did the wood texture I don't know if i missed it or you just did not show it.
32:41 This is a pool trowel that we attach to a pole, and if you watch after he puts the trowel on the pole, they start laying out the overlay, he is on Leggari spiked shoes so he doesn’t mess up the design while walking back and forth in straight lines with the pool trowel and it leaves behind those high ridges that you come back and sand off after you stain the top, which exposes the wood grain color. Really cool process!
Do you need a home to do? Just bought one closes on purchase 02/08/22. Would like it done B4 moving in.
We might have a contractor in your area! Contact customerservice@leggari.com they will be able to answer any questions you have. Have a great day!
What are the pros to this over real wood?
Damn bro for that you could’ve put real tile wood planks… and it would’ve been faster and been real
Note to self bigger equipment ,,,,,, less prep time .
Thanks for the tip!
Can this product go over tiles ? And if so show a video of please
Yes, Email customerservice@leggari.com They will be able to help you with the process!
I WORK FOR HERC RENTALS ON THE FLOORING SIDE. I SERIOUSLY DON'T GET WHY YOU'RE USING A SHOTBLASTER TO REMOVE THE GLUE. PLEASE EXPLAIN. ALSO YOUR VACUUM DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH CFM FOR THAT SHOTBLASTER. CALL HERC, OVER 270 LOCATIONS NATIONWIDE
Have no idea why they are using shot blaster
To knock out the old grout in the saw cuts and the removal of cream layer for better stain penetration to avoid a black underlay step.
Thanks for the tip!
How did you get the wood look? You didn’t explain the trowel that followed the magic trowel
Yes, you just use a pool trowel going across the entire floor in straight lines. Doing this leaves behind the high ridges that you sand off to expose the wood grain color.
@@LeggariProducts thanks!
Why did they have to do a pass with that magnet? After the grinder?!
Nevermind I guess that's some kinda machine that shoots small metal shavings at the floor?!? Then you need to pickup the shavings.
We used a shot blaster that shoots small metal bbs to profile the floor before we put down the coating and yes it a magnet that picks up all the extra bbs!
3 phase Concrete grinder, medium bond 25s add water and sand, glue gone cuz!
Ya I don't see why these guys are blasting glue, unless it's super thin it's not really doing anything. Blaster is great for prep after grind though. I wouldn't really use water and 25s though, rather use pcd with vacuum on the grinder for easy cleanup.
Thanks for the tip!
We’re I can buy the tool you used to do texture coat? Thanks
You can find the pool trowel we used at many larger home improvement stores like Home Depot or Lowe's. We simply attach it to a pole for easier use.
How much is a job like this in comparison to laying tile?
price out your kit at Leggari.com
Huhu nice container of isoprophile. I just have a liter. Is it a german company? "Isopropanol"
Thanks for watching
How long does it last. Is it slippery?
Our Hardwood Overlay with last years...... and years..... We guarantee our proprietary kits are so strong they will not delaminate (peel off) or wear off over time 💯 People love this flooring for spaces that need to be durable and highly resistant such as garages or shops. For more info, check out our Hardwood Overlay Kits here 👇
leggari.com/order-flooring/#hardwood-overlay-kits 🔥
Like other flooring, Hardwood Overlay can be slippery when wet but the flooring is naturally textured and has grooves for traction.
Can you spray paint concrete?
Instead of staining! No the overlay wouldn't bond to the paint well enough!
@@LeggariProducts i mean just spray paint my porch as is
👍🇸🇪❤️..Nice
Thank you!
How did it cost for this job?
Price out your kit today at Leggari.com
Did I miss how you put down the wood grain????
It is with the metal pool troll following the guy laying out the first coat!
This doesn't look like epoxy floor; is this 'Acid Stain' technique?
This is concrete overlay, not epoxy. Concrete overlay is a faux concrete finish!
Do you have any branches in india
Leggari.com we ship internationally!
Why not use carbides to remove the glue then shot blast it? Not understanding your process at all
Thanks for the tip! All we had at the time!
hahahhahah. @45:49, safety first...nc
That bigger saw is sketchy as fack.
Agreed! Looks like a 7" grinder with an oversized diamond blade, no guard. 😲😲
Go big or go home! But for real it was a bit sketchy I’ll admit!
its not picking up the beads because you dont have a powerful enough vacuum for that suction. plus...put some duct tape around the skirt...the brush skirts they come with are trash
Thanks for the tip! And yes we know the vacuum was too small the rental place only had the shot blaster we had to make do. For that very reason we will selling are own line of Leggari concrete prep tools soon!
so the "grout line" created by the tape is basically empty divots exposing thin concrete edges. I'm curios to see how long this flooring method would last with sliding furniture/wear and tear. Also you guys are so terrible with safety. I get that you're professional, but safety should always be number one.
Still looks like concrete.
Thanks!
skipped the whole wood grain process isnt that the point of video?????
