This has been one of the most informative video. The others just give you a bunch of ads and skipped out advice
Thanks so much, this was my video goal! I truly appreciate you letting me know this. You Got This, let me know if you have any questions
Great feedback! Thanks for taking the time to let us know this.
AWWWW What cute kids! 😂They are mine! By the way the floor is so nice tomaintaine and clean. The floor isn't too slippy either, thanks Mitch for the floor I love it!!! Love your wife!
Lol, love you honey
Your boys will be the test for durability for sure!!
great comment!
One question wife…….do you rent your husband out? 😁
@@sharonviksen788 I have/ had a talented husband too that I loaned out for his assistance to our neighbors until I discovered how they were paying him back. Never again 😒
I like your way of prepping the surface. Grind it clean instead of using a chemical.
Cute kids walking on all fours. Reminds me of my childhood.
I will say it again Mitch, you guys aren’t afraid of hard work. I love your energy level. Good work.
Appreciate that, you rock!
AGREE!!! This was a fun video to watch, now I want to fix my garage floor!
Thanks Wayne!!! The only hard part was grinding and that's just because I'm out of working shape! Too much time editing videos and not working. Thanks for the great comment! 👍
Best DYI video ever! You immediately began the tutorial and not wasted time yakkity yakking about irrelevant nonsense. Very well explained. THANKS!
Thanks for watching! How long have you been subscribed?
A true example of a robust epoxy floor 100% intact no marks, the heater smashed " great video guys like the others.
Thank you for the color inspiration, blue and copper. My plan was white veined marble on my countertop because of the barnwood colors but couldn't resist adding those two colors into the mix after watching your video. End result more of a faux quarzite. I love it and couldn't have done it without all your wonderful training videos.
Testimonial: My only regret is that I used another brand of table top epoxy I had leftover from art projects but it was only a 24" x 30" counter. 30 minute working time is not enough to pull off Stonecoat's magic. It was setting up before I could manipulate those bubbles. I've been watching your videos for years, I knew better. Next project, bathroom counter, I'll use Stonecoat epoxy and your epoxy trowel stick. After my first epoxy counter experience, that tool will be a must have. Thanks again for all the training and inspiration. Can't wait to use your epoxy on my next project. I've got this!!!
I've been watching and it takes common sense, thorough with respect to covering up and masking things. Not to mention, you make it look easy. I've almost got the courage up to do my first epoxy table I'm going to start with my TV trays and try to see if I can get that color palette and instinct that you have built over the years. Thanks man, your videos are great.
I love this video!! Great work!!! Possibly the best quote ever while doing a project “that actually worked” ❤️ to SCC for all your training!!!
HAHAHAHA!!!!! Thanks for this comment Michael, I hella needed a laugh - Mitch🔥👍
75% of "the magic" is your presentation, dude. I mean it. Epoxy floor is sweet. Can't wait to tackle my garage-barn-workshop concrete floor.
Wow, Mitch! That turned out amazing!!! ❤️❤️❤️ You took this DIY project and showed us all just how easy it really is and you should be very pleased with that finish. It’s beautiful!! Fantastic job!! #SCCRocks! Way to go ✌🏼ps. your commentary is the best. 😁 I enjoy watching you.
Mitch I love this project!! So cool you get to enjoy it everyday! Love the Blue Earth in with the copper and rust. Just amazing effects, like clouds of copper. Very awesome!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video. Would you add any other colors to this?
I loved the blue earth too, I almost wish I did more of the blue earth 🌎 💙
Maravilloso trabajo!!! Felicitaciones!!! Me encantó los subtítulos en español! Muy agradecida por ello!! Muchos éxitos más para ustedes!!!
Yes but he is referring to the "teriyaki pattern". Practice outdoors or at wholesale warehouse
Wow 🤩 guys the floor looks great… I’m glad I saw the entire video…I will watch it again on the TV to show my wife how beautiful it looks and we can make our garage floor look amazing…ThanX I will see you guys in the next video!!!
Thank u so much for helping and explaining every single steps
I love the project results and how it's brought to life explaining the entire process. Good camera work and positivity in the videos makes it easily watchable for the time invested. I watch more of S.C.C. videos than I do about many of my other hobbies. LOL. One day I'll be a customer for sure:)
You should choose a ham colour . I matched ham and lamb. The walls must be loose
So the entry level of my house is a 12x16 slab. I think they built this place without blueprints (rural Missouri), and this slab was sort of a screwup.
An epoxy floor is just the cure I have been looking for. Thank you for this excellent instruction. I'll watch it at least several more times until I have a good grasp on the process.
This video was very helpful to me, I can't wait to fix my garage floor up
Excellent comment! Let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to help out!
Thus crack is in my kids home ,and l was so upset about it, and now m glad that you you made works on this crack ,like you great awesome shares on how to solves it🥺🥺🥺😯👍
Wow...this is so inspiring!
Learned a great deal by watching your methodical, step-by-step process.
Love the colors! Good Job!!!👍
We want to do a floor so bad! This one looks great!
Wow what a great idea ! I thought you only did this to countertops.
I'd love to see an ATD floor! 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
@@doublej4077 Our flooring epoxy is very user friendly! Let me know if you have any questions👍
This is unbelievable! I 💕💕 it.. can you use epoxy on the outside?
We want to come help!
For a future project, try using Yellow pearl base, with black and blue accents and spray chrome on top! It just turns out amazing and warm! I love it!
Great idea thank you Geo! Stay tuned my friend🙌
What color should the under coat color be for this type of project ?
@@adrianportillo2782 both White and black work I actually used a light gray on mine. The colors are opaque so the undercoat isn't that visible.
Red and black alternated curls and curli-q's, not yellow Adjust the lights adjacent to the walls ask customer before leaving walls too distant from "teriyaki" pattern. Trial and error. Practice at outdoor epoxy warehouse
Gosh !! I can’t stop watching this video, I’m dreaming of this floor in my house one day 😢😢so help me God🙏
thank God for the official Home Depot Pails which without this video would never have been made.
This is perfect timing for me. I started this process in my bedroom and tomorrow I am pouring. Took a little convincing for the wife to come around. I chose black metallic and blue earth. I might throw in some white veins. I also plan to put UTC matte down. Great video and info as always Mitch!
Oh I forgot. I am using black undercoat by SCC. Is that ok for a seal coat?
@@flintdesigns7292 How did it went? :)
@@GruntGP not bad for my first try.
Loosen the walls. Red and black alternated curls and curli-q's. Adjust the lights adjacent to the walls there are dozens of wood substrate epoxy resins but the key is to inform the customer about loose walls and ceiling.
Looking forward to epoxying my 2400sqft pole barn. You guys are awesome!!!
You want help on this project? Where are u located?
@@mitchquist how far would you drive to help?
Artist is a huge understatement. That looks amazing. You’re a legend.
Thanks so much! Been watching for a couple of years now! I've got a huge project ahead! Going to finish my brand new workshop and all the counters!!! Cannot wait! And I'm slightly terrified. But it will be alright withyou guys in my back pocket! 😅
That’s so pretty ♥️ You’re making me want to epoxy everything.
With the help of our videos you can tackle any project you have!
Yes! You Got This! How can I help get a project started, do you have any questions?
You Got This!!!!
Great video, great transformation!!
Thank you!! Thanks for watching Momma!
Yea it is mom, mitch did a great job.
Thanks for watching and feeding me for so many years!
BRO YOUR THE MAN!!! That’s for the video. I’m going to purchase STONE COAT BECAUSE YOUR A GREAT TEACHER SO IM GONNA TRUST UR MATERIALS
The floor is truly a work of art.
Thanks so much for the great feedback!
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment! Happy you enjoyed the video, You Got This!
This is sick!! For sure gonna do this on my floor 👀👀👀
I loved the finished look and how easy you made it seem! I originally planned on refinishing my concrete floor by staining and sealing it. I'd like to know how the epoxy process compares to that. Is epoxy more labor intensive and costly? Does it differ in quality and versatility?
awesome video im a flooring contractor and starting to get into Epoxy polish and seal etc love how you expiain the steps u are a great teacher
This is the best do-it-yourself video I have seen on this subject thus far. Well done!
That looks great.
Thanks Ramon! Let me know if you have any questions👍💯
Great job and well explained!
Thank you so much! We are happy you enjoyed our video, stay tuned for more amazing content coming your way.
Happy to help! Let me know if you have any questions along the way. Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment
I love watching a pro!
That was an ENORMOUS JOB!
So much material and tools
NO WAY I could do this.
Great job
With the help of these videos we truly believe you got this! Thanks for watching!
Same here
Too much work
I'm not a fan of carpet but I would have just hrown down a nice remnant from Ollie's.
Cool project though!
ALWAYS WEAR SPIKE SHOES SO THAT U DONT GET STUCK IN THE ROOM AND HAVING TO DO WORK ALL OVER AGAIN
Now that's a pro tip!
Brilliant video guys 👍👍
Thanks for the visit and the comment! We appreciate you
Looks fab! Before epoxy floors were a thing, I had a friend who did concrete, and he stained my concrete floor... looked awful! I achieved a much better and similar look (to yours)
with wood stain and polyurethane... Looked great, until normal wear and tear dulled the shine. But now that! You definitely Got This!
I was scared to attempt this process to concrete floors, however, I feel more confident towards the process application; no more tiling for me again, I am going to be an epoxy man going forward. That finished floor application convinced me that I am capable to proceed with the process. Thank you very much for the clair example.
Lots of helpful tips here, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Mitch. Thanks for the video. I have a question regarding fixing the cracks in the concrete floor. Concrete being Concrete, if it is cracked and filled the cracks usually come back over time, how flexible is the epoxy filler you used.
When you dropped the heater you looked like you had a heart attack 🤣🤣🤣 very nice job
Well done! The finish product looks so good Mitch... Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Well done‼ Keep up the good job🤗
I agree with this comment! 💯👍
Thanks Go Man! You got this! 👍
Great job buddy!
Thanks!
I think I'm going to try this, now after watching this very informative video - we need to replace the indoor/outdoor carpet under my husband's aquariums!
Caramel brown with mustard undertone , in Jamaica welcome to the island, and please bring all what you’ll need for the job , your work is the Best !!!
on newly poured concrete for a room addition, how long should the concrete cure before applying Stone Coat? Thanks in advance. I love watching your videos. I am enrolled in the next pro class with RK3.
I have seen this floor! It is just as beautiful as the first day, Mitch's 4 sons have definitely put it to the test!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I want to do this to my basement floor, and this was a great breakdown of the steps needed. Think I'm going with Stone Coat for my basement floor. 👍
For a concrete floor , just grind and clean dust before apply?
Can I grind and pressure wash?
thank you for being so education i needed it.. im doing my floor and i love your video.. you took the guessing game out for me and helped understand what to do and how to do it the right way.. thank you sooooo much.. oh my the way my 3 favorite colors are burgundy, dark purple and bright blue.. like what you used in this video.. the blue color
The results are stunning! I'm researching floor finishes and just came upon ideas of sealing concrete floors. My home is on a slab and after watching this I want to do the entire 1200 sq. ft this way. Do you recommend this for kitchen and bathrooms?
Research thoroughly. Most cleaning products that you would use in a bathroom are corrosive (i.e. Bleach) and could destroy epoxy.
Adjust the lights adjacent to the walls ask municipality before leaving walls too distant from "teriyaki" pattern. It's a coding violation. Trial and error. Practice at outdoor epoxy warehouse let them deal with it
I have a kit for awhile I have not use, I what to do a bar top I have look at your videos not enough information on what material to use on a L shape top
You can use our original formulation - Stone Coat Countertop Epoxy. If you would like to do a white countertop, use Stone Coat Art Coat Epoxy. Let me know the measurements of your tops and I can help you with how much you will need to mix up
Use our Stone Coat Countertop Epoxy or Art Coat Epoxy for the countertops. Use our Ultimate Top Coat as a final step for ultimate durability, great question and let me know if you have any more, I'd be happy to help
Ok I need to know what to use to make the top
When I played this in the other room my wife heard "schmear it into your crack" I had to explain it wasn't what she thought. I was learning to do it myself. She just gave my a puzzled look, thre her hands up into the air and walked away 😂
Im so glad Im not the only one that thinks if i shout loud enough at insects that theyll go away!
Is it possible to do vertical surfaces with epoxy, like if you wanted to entirely cover concrete steps? If so, I would love to see the techniques in a future video.
anything vertical will run down. Maybe do the tops of the stairs cool, paint a solid color or faux paint the vertical part of the stair, then apply clear to tie the them all together.
Can we epoxy over other types floors besides concrete? Someone laid tile here incorrectly so they are all breaking, including the grout. Would Stone Coat work in bathrooms, kitchens, and entry ways?
I'm going to do the leisure area in my kitchen which is almost the exact size of this room. The floor is old wood plank that I will be pouring floor leveler on. I will use this entire technique. I will find out. No guts no glory.
The durability test was priceless.
31:08 when you're more concerned with the floor lol
hahahahaha!!! I was all concerned for a min, it was pretty fresh still
Thanks for watching.
Q: For garage, to drive on, what would you seal it with? I love that you didn't acid wash it. That looks messy. I would do a KC Chiefs black with red and yellow and some gold metallic mixed in and a big ole CHIEFS arrowhead logo in the middle of the floor with a dramatic explosion look under it. ❤️🏈💛😁
That idea sounds really cool even though I'm a 49er fan!
We have an amazing flooring top coat coming to market next year. Its the ultimate top coat flooring edition! You floor idea sounds amazing. Apply the decal after your flood coat is dry. You will want to apply a clear coat or top coat over the decal to protect it for many years
@@StoneCoatCountertops Thanks for the info! That will be perfect timing since I'm building new in 2023. I was wondering about concrete cracking with the epoxy overtop. Does the epoxy flex, or will there be patching if it does crack? 49er fan...I'm sorry...lol. At least you're not a Raider fan! 😁
Is the seal coat the same as epoxy primer if not whats the difference between them.can you use the seal coat with different colour and why did you use black on this floor. Thank you great job
The seal coat is the same material as the flood coat Stone Coat Flooring Epoxy. The difference between the to is, the Seal Coat is applied thin at 1 ounce per square foot of floor to be covered and the Flood Coat is 3 ounce per square foot. Great question!
Thanks @Mitch Quist
Seal coat is less epoxy to seal up concrete, flood coat is thick now that air won't get into epoxy.
Seal Coat 1 ounce per sqft
Flood Coat 3 ounce per sqft
@@mitchquist so is it the same as an epoxy primer
@@nouriomran1738 No it's not. Epoxy primer is different product it's more viscous which mean it permeate more into concrete and give even better bond also seals those air holes better.
That is absolutely beautiful Mitch! Awesome work!!!
Thanks for the great comment!
Wow this looks too good to be a floor. I imagine this as counters tops in a kitchen. Great work man.
Hello I am a happy follower since your beginning:) Question: I hv sealed concrete floors in my whole house. I want to embrace the cracks and fill them to look like a Japanese Kintsugi bowl. Do you think I can use your product to do that. Thx
Great question! You can tint the flooring epoxy and overfill the cracks then come back and sand flat.
cool idea!
I was wondering how well this holds up to UV? I have done a few counters with your product that turned out amazing. I was thinking about doing the foot paths in my 33’ greenhouse dome with this product. But I haven’t really seen it used that way and was wondering what your thoughts are.
We recommend testing this out first but you shouldn't have a problem.
Holds up very well to UV, same as countertops. Use earth tones if applying in greenhouse
glad you asked this i was wondering for a porch and steps
Very pretty I love that combo the black under the copper very nice colors. Thanx.
Thanks for watching Heidi! We appreciate you taking the time to let us know you enjoyed the vid! Thanks for subscribing so long ago!!!!! You Got This! 👍🔥💯
Got caught up in how entertaining the rep was in the video and ended up learning a new skill. OMG ! That was great!
Can you use underfloor heating with an epoxy floor?
Yes you can. Underfloor heated floor work with every possible material especially if it's water circulated. Electric floor has some limitations but epoxy coated works well.
Best video on this topic I've seen. I'm just stunned at how gorgeous it turned out. You my friend are an artist.
Pine green , metallic silver/gray and white. 👍.. next colors .
This is absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️.
Remember to not epoxy your wolf spiders
LOL Right!!!! Make sure the mice are under control, I made a gigantic glue trap for about 18 hours as the epoxy cured!
@@mitchquist oh god, I would have cried. Like, I don't really want them in the house to begin with, but that would just make me super sad.
I really like watching the process but wish you didn't do them like cheap and cheesy infomercials. You are more on production than needed and getting less connection with the audience than you could just being natural.. The whole reason the maker video genre on you-tube has taken off is because we dont like the fake excitement.
I have also been to your website, please put up more technical info on the actual epoxies, their formulas and properties. I dont see anything there that could actually be submitted to an architect or engineer for review. Even if your intended audience is the "home owner" most people dont do a renovation without some outside support.
Great feedback and thanks for your advice👍🔥💯
1M+ subscribers say otherwise. 👍🏼
@@mitchquist I appreciate that you read and respond.. Personally I would love to see some technical videos going over the various chemistries and properties of the different epoxy formulas..
@@KristiSage You must be a joy to live with..NOT
I think their videos are great.
Shiny. Just like Macy’s.
That’s so pretty ️ You’re making me want to epoxy everything.
I love how you work and that floor looks amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼thank you !!!
Very cool indeed. For a garage floor, epoxying would be great. This is great too - but the floor could just as well have been covered with vinyl plank flooring and been perfectly great looking for a lot less work. But - this is of course absolutely unique in the world, nobody has this exact floor, so that's another very cool factor. Resin can do a lot of cool stuff, I need to do some projects. Perhaps not a room right away...
Would love to see colors such as black with some metallic purple and blue together, great job looks so good!!! 👏🏼
Those sound like wonderful colors! Is this something you would try?
@@StoneCoatCountertops yess we are planning on trying very soon :)
Wow Mitch this is awesome, you can take your garage to the next level.
I’ve been waiting for you guys to do floor job was not disappointed awesome looking floor!
Looks incredible great job!
I am from China, and I watch your video from 2021 to 2022（the time is 0:08 Beijing time）.Best wishes for you.
Thanks, Guys, and God Bess.
I got exhausted just by watching the entire process.
Would love to do this for my parents back porch 😍
Love how the floor tuned, would like to do this on my garage floor but worried about slipping
Wow, that looks like it belongs in a museum. Beautiful
This is like watching Woodworks, very relaxing.. I love the contents..
That looks amazing!!!
Great job
sir, thank you for detailed work and explanations, blessing to you, to your family, to your business and your crews.
Great job! Thanks for the tips!
Mitch I like you videos a lot, you give tons of helpful info THANKS!💯👍
The kids playing got ya my thumbs up 👍 buddy.
Very beautiful, it reminds me of land/water around Old Faithful in Yellowstone National Park!!
Oh right on it totally does! Inspiration is everywhere, do you have any projects coming up?
You had me lost me and had me again!!! You my friend are an ARTIST!!!!!
