Carports and driveways
Outdoor concrete takes sun, salt and tyre heat. Flake gives it grip when it is wet and the topcoat keeps it from chalking.

What we coat
The floor you park on, made to last.
Hot tyres, road salt, a dropped wrench and the winter slush off two cars, every day. A flake or metallic floor over diamond-ground concrete is built for exactly that, and it washes clean with a hose.

The job behind the photograph.
A garage slab in Utah has a hard life. It takes hot tyres in August, salt and grit tracked in off the roads from November to March, and whatever leaks out of the cars in between. Bare concrete soaks all of that up, which is why it stains, dusts and pits. A coating seals it, and the polyaspartic topcoat is the layer that lives with the tyres and the salt without yellowing or lifting.
Most garages get the full flake system. The slab is diamond ground so the epoxy keys down into the concrete rather than sitting on top of it, cracks and pits are filled, then a pigmented base goes down and vinyl flake is thrown into it by hand until no more will stick. Once it cures the floor is scraped flat and the clear polyaspartic goes over the top. Flake hides dust and tyre marks and gives the floor grip when it is wet.
When the garage is a workshop, a gym or somewhere people actually spend time, metallic is the other option. Metallic pigment is worked into the epoxy by hand so no two floors move the same way, and it goes under the same polyaspartic topcoat. The metallic garage in the gallery was done in West Valley City and every stage of it is on the feed.
System
Full flake or metallic
Flake for a working garage, metallic when the room is a room. Both under polyaspartic.
Prep
Diamond ground, not etched
Cracks and pits filled on the same pass, the slab vacuumed before anything is mixed.
Holds up to
Hot tyres, salt, oil
The topcoat is UV stable, chemical resistant and anti scratch.

Polyaspartic cures fast. When you can park on it depends on the system and the weather.

The space, roughly how big it is and what the concrete is doing now is enough to start with. Someone comes out, stands on the slab and gives you a number.
