A thing of beauty, concrete steps restored using a Milwaukee grinder. #milwaukee #tools #torginol
What happens here
After applying the epoxy base coat (as shown in the previous step), decorative vinyl flakes are broadcast uniformly and heavily over the wet epoxy. This step is not explicitly shown in the video but is essential for an epoxy flake system, creating the textured, multi-colored surface. The flakes are typically applied until refusal, meaning the surface is completely saturated with flakes and no more can adhere.
Goal: Create the decorative flake layer by broadcasting flakes onto the wet epoxy.
