okay so the epoxy kit itself uh i've used a product from my stolen before this is the first time using their rock solid they're based off of two and a half car garage which who has a half car garage i don't know um and so sometimes you have to buy the two and a half and the one car garage to make it even so i bought two boxes because it's kind of a big one so here's what's in here usually there's usually a bag or two of the concrete etching and then there's a bag or two of the actual epoxy and not with you know of course directions you got your textured flakes here's the kicker my concrete is already sealed with the previous epoxy that was built in what 2005 so some parts are kind of already chipping away the directions they do not use the self etching because if you put the self etcher on the concrete it produces the acid that's there and it can be it's like a chemical reaction so we're going to skip that and instead we're going to apply the epoxy itself now before we do that we have to squeegee this floor we have to make sure it's dry and make sure there's no dust or debris in here so let's get to [Music] drying all right so like i said right here do not apply the concrete etching directly to painted concrete here so because this already has epoxy on it from the original time some parts are faded like there which i'm going to take a gamble and say that they don't want us to use this acid stuff to create this chemical reaction so instead we're going to roll it on where it is but before we do that let's do the corner barriers first and then we'll start rolling it on and doing a little flakeroo all right here our two-part resin
