Can a painter really do resinous floors? #torginol #garagefloors #resinousfloors #garagemakeover

What happens here

Once the epoxy has fully cured and the flakes are set, use a floor scraper or a specialized floor sander/buffer with an abrasive screen or diamond pad to lightly scrape or abrade the surface. This step is crucial for knocking down any flakes that are standing vertically or are too proud of the surface. The goal is to create a smoother, more even texture and remove any loose flakes, preparing the floor for subsequent clear coat applications. Collect and dispose of the scraped-off excess flakes.
