Tips For Polyaspartic Coating Prep
September 19, 20243 Advantages Of Polyaspartic Concrete Coatings
September 19, 2024Concrete garage flooring is one of most often overlooked areas in the home that many Severna Park area homeowners tend to leave unfinished. However, leaving the garage floor unfinished can lead to problems with minor cracks, staining, and increased dust, just to name a few. In fact, most of the dust in the garage comes from dusty powder directly from the concrete floor itself. Since more people are using their garages for other functions and purposes besides parking their vehicles, it only makes sense to have your garage floors properly protected. Having an experienced Polyaspartic concrete coating contractor apply a proper polyaspartic floor coating not only adds value to your home, but also transforms the plain-looking cement floor into a beautiful looking floor, in addition to a number of other benefits. In this article, our skilled concrete coatings professionals here at Hardshell Coatings will go over just a few of these benefits.
Eliminate Imperfections
Polyaspartic concrete coatings resolve problems with cracks, stains, and uneven areas. The coating seals cracks and prevents them from spreading. In addition, because the coating is applied to the entire garage floor, it covers up stains. Additionally, since these coatings are self-leveling, uneven areas will be properly filled in and will no longer be a problem.
Resist Stains & Moisture
Polyaspartic coatings are resistant to stains, including those that are petroleum based, like oil and gasoline, and even other fluids that might drip from your vehicle. Further, the coating resists moisture, so any water remains on top of the floor, unlike concrete, which can absorb moisture.
Damage Resistant
Polyaspartic coatings have features to resist cracking and chipping. They’re able to withstand impacts, within reason, if you accidentally drop tools or knock over a bike.
Brighten Up Your Garage Space
Depending on the type of polyaspartic color and finish you choose for your garage, the finished surface can be reflective, which will go a long way towards increasing the light levels inside your garage space.
Easy To Clean & Maintain
Since polyaspartic coatings resist moisture and staining, they remain on top, which makes cleaning up simple and easy. All that’s required to keep your floor looking beautiful is regular mopping with an approved soap and warm water. Dry floors can also be swept with a broom, when you only need to remove debris and dirt tracked into the garage from outside.
