Why You Should NEVER Grind Your Epoxy Floor Again…

What happens here

With the primer properly mixed, begin applying it to the perimeter 'footings' and edges of the garage floor. Utilize throwaway chip brushes for precision work in corners and tight spots, and small rollers for smoother application on the edge surfaces. Apply a thin, even coat, avoiding heavy spots. This step is essential to ensure uniform coverage and prepare the edges before rolling out the main floor area. Wearing Fento knee pads is recommended for comfort during this kneeling task.

Goal: Using throwaway chip brushes and small rollers, carefully apply a thin, even coat of the EP-55 primer to all the perimeter edges and footings of the garage floor. This 'cutting-in' step precedes the main floor application.
