What happens here
After spreading the base coat with a squeegee, use a backroller (typically a spiked roller or a specific epoxy roller) on a long handle to 'backroll' the entire surface. This action helps to level the epoxy, remove any squeegee lines, and ensure a smooth, uniform finish. Continue wearing spiked shoes to avoid disturbing the wet epoxy.
Goal: Smooth and level the applied epoxy base coat.
Tools and materials
