What happens here
The video begins by showing a worker using a metal trowel or scraper to remove loose, unadhered decorative flakes from a pre-existing or recently applied and cured epoxy-flaked surface on a concrete stair tread. This step is crucial for achieving a smooth, uniform surface and preparing it for the final clear coat, preventing any weak spots or irregularities.
Goal: Remove loose decorative flakes from a cured epoxy surface.
