Our Installation Process
- The first step is preparing the substrate by cleaning the surface of imperfections and previous coatings with mechanical grinding.
- Next, a primer coat is applied directly to the concrete substrate.
- Then holes, non-structural cracks, and surface deformities are filled to achieve a smooth and uniform substrate.
- In the next step, a flood coat is applied to cover the floor which will be the base coat for the rest of the epoxy floor system.
- Next, your choice of flakes is applied on top of the flood coat by hand to achieve an evenly distributed colour and pattern.
- The final step is an entrapment coat. We use two coats of UV stable polyurethane to trap in the flakes and seal the epoxy floor seamlessly.

FAQs
Is epoxy flake flooring non-slip?
Gordon Flooring can achieve a non-slip finish on your epoxy flake flooring, depending on the installation process used.
How long does epoxy flake flooring take to cure?
We recommend 24 hours before subjecting the floor to pedestrian traffic, 96 hours before vehicular traffic, and 5 to 7 days before allowing chemical contact or severe abrasion.
What's the difference between epoxy and polyurethane floor coatings?
In general, epoxy is more rigid and has a higher compressive strength than polyurethane. But it can break down over time on its own, so Gordon Flooring uses a UV stable polyurethane topcoat to protect the surface.
Will the polyurethane top coat yellow over time?
No. Gordon Flooring uses only premium ultraviolet resistant products that do not yellow in sunlight.
Is concrete grinding a messy process?
No. Gordon Flooring uses state of the art machinery and equipment, including H class vacuums and air purifiers, to catch any airborne dust and ensure there is no mess on your site.
