When using color flakes it's imperative that you protect them with a clear topcoat. We offer two versions, a standard heavy duty topcoat with no odor and a military grade topcoat that has a strong odor until it dries. Whenever possible we recommend the military grade topcoat, it's a much harder/durable finish. When working in occupied spaces or inside a home the standard topcoat should be chosen. We also strongly recommend the use of the nonslip additive, all epoxy finishes are slippery when wet. You can select the topcoat of your choice from the drop down menu on the Coat-All Indoor Kit product page.

Epoxy Flooring Chips Application

Apply the chips to the wet epoxy of each batch that you apply. Sprinkle in chips a little at a time so as not to end up with blotches or piles of chips. Leave a wet edge of epoxy without any chips so you can feather in the next batch of epoxy and then cover with chips. Chip coverage should be a medium to medium heavy coverage. We strongly recommend that you use spike soles while applying the color flakes, it allows you to walk in the wet epoxy so that you can easily disperse the flakes. This eliminates the risk of have piles or blotches of flakes if you simply toss the flakes from the perimeter of the wet epoxy. The method below involving a shaker jug is used while wearing spike soles.

Here's a series of images sent in by a customer who came up with a simple but yet very effective way to spread the chips out evenly. As you can tell by the pictures he did a perfect job with the chips. This is how he told us he did it.

FIRST GET A PLASTIC CONTAINER, PREFERABLY ONE WITH A HANDLE. DRILL SOME HOLES IN THE BOTTOM, ABOUT 3/8" DIAMETER.

NOW FILL THE CONTAINER HALFWAY WITH CHIPS, HOLD CONTAINER SIDEWAYS UNTIL YOU ARE IN POSITION THEN TURN CONTAINER UPRIGHT SHAKE CONTAINER WHILE WALKING IN THE EPOXY WITH YOUR SPIKE SOLES(MUST HAVE THE SPIKES). THE CHIPS WILL NOT COME OUT UNTIL YOU START SHAKING AND THEY WILL FALL STRAIGHT DOWN OUT OF THE CONTAINER. ONCE YOU'VE DONE A SECTION TAKE A STEP BACK AND LOOK FOR BARE SPOTS, IF YOU HAVE A SECOND PERSON THEY CAN ACT AS A SPOTTER. FOR BARE SPOTS JUST WALK UP TO THEM IN YOUR SPIKED SOLES AND ADD A PINCH OF CHIPS WITH A LITTLE SHAKE OF THE CONTAINER TO FILL IN.

AS YOU CAN SEE THIS METHOD RESULTED IN A BEAUTIFUL EPOXY FLOOR CHIP PATTERN THAT IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

Always use a clear topcoat and nonslip additive over your color flakes for protection. See the drop down menu on the Indoor Coat-All Epoxy Kit product page.
