What happens here

Immediately after spreading the epoxy base coat with the notched squeegee, the surface is backrolled using a paint roller with an extension pole. This process helps to even out the epoxy layer, eliminate any visible squeegee lines or imperfections, and ensure a smooth, uniform surface that is ready for flake application. The person performing this step continues to wear spiked shoes.

Goal: Achieve a smooth and uniform epoxy layer
