Welcome to the online epoxy course

What happens here

A key component of the epoxy floor system, which will be covered in the course, is the application of the epoxy basecoat, often a colored layer, and the subsequent broadcasting of decorative vinyl flakes. A visual sequence shows a person wearing a red shirt and blue gloves broadcasting a mix of multicolored flakes from a white bucket over a wet epoxy surface. These flakes are scattered by hand to create a textured, aesthetically pleasing finish that also adds to the floor's slip resistance. The course will explain the proper technique for achieving an even distribution of flakes.

Goal: The course will instruct on applying the epoxy basecoat and then broadcasting decorative flakes into the wet epoxy for aesthetic and anti-slip properties. The video shows flakes being spread from a bucket.
