What happens here
Begin by wearing rubber gloves to protect your hands from the clear coat. Set up a drop cloth just outside the garage entrance as a designated "clean zone" to step on when moving in and out of the garage. Start applying the clear coat from the back of the garage and work your way towards the chosen exit door. One person should handle the "cut-ins" around the edges of the garage and footings using a brush or a small roller, while another person rolls the main floor with the larger roller and extension pole. As the clear coat is transparent, it can be hard to see where it has been applied. Maintain proper lighting and angles to observe the reflection, ensuring a thin, even coat covers the entire surface without missing spots. Do not slide the buckets on the floor to avoid scratching the already applied color chips or finish; instead, pick them up and move them.
Goal: Apply a thin, even layer of clear coat to the entire garage floor, protecting the previously applied epoxy.
