Epoxy Floor Clear Coat Application. Garage Floor Epoxy Instructions. DIY Concrete coatings.

What happens here

Gather all necessary tools and prepare the work area. This includes an extension pole with a roller, a blower to clean debris, a bucket, a 4-inch roller with a 1/4 inch mohair nap, and a brush for cut-ins. Also, place an inch and a half tape along the edge of the garage floor where it meets the driveway or other non-epoxied areas to create a clean line. Ensure a drop cloth is ready outside the garage to place tools on.

Goal: Gather all necessary tools and prepare the garage floor for clear coat application.

Tools and materials

  • 1.5-inch Tape — Masking off areas to create a clean application line
  • 1/4 inch Mohair Nap Wooster — Covering the roller for smooth application of epoxy clear coat
  • Blower — Removing debris from the floor before application
  • Brush — Doing cut-ins along the edges and footings
  • Bucket — Holding the mixed clear coat
  • Drop Cloth — Protecting the area outside the garage from spills or drips
  • Extension Pole — Attaching the roller for ergonomic application across the floor
  • Roller — Applying the clear coat to large areas of the floor

What they say

Hide

process right now. So, here we go. We're going to be applying this clear coat. And this is Armor Seal. And unlike the first two coats of epoxy where you have to, you know, box your part A and part B together and let them sweat for 30 minutes, this Armor seal, we are going to box them together. And there's no sweat, no sweat time, so we don't have to wait. We're going to box them together and start applying it. And we're just going to apply this just like we applied the first two coats of epoxy. And that's using just a quarterinch mohair nap. And we're one person's going to go around do the cutins all around the footings. Another person's going to roll the coat on and then we're going to be completely done. Want to make sure that we get our inch and a half tape along the edge cuz we don't want to get any of the clear coat on the the portion of the the garage or driveway that we're not doing. We want to have a nice clean line. And um a couple of tools you're going to want to have is just an extension pole with your roller. We're going to take our blower, blow it out, make sure there's no debris on the floor. And then we're going to be using just a bucket, a 4-in roller, 4-in nap, and a brush to do the cutins. So, here we go.
