NEWS - Home Improvement Giant, This Old House, features Colored Epoxies Epoxy Resin Coating Product on ThisOldHouse.com

May 10, 2022 2 min read

This Old House, America's most trusted home improvement media brand specializing in How-to and DIY expert advice features Colored Epoxies clear epoxy resin kits in their selection of the Best Garage Floor Coating Products of 2022. 

Colored Epoxies made the cut to be one of ThisOldHouse.com top 5 recommended garage flooring solutions and the only epoxy resin product. YEAH!

In the article, which you can find HERE, This Old House experts take the mystery out of garage floor surface upgrades. They give tips on how to select the right surface treatment depending on intensity of the anticipated traffic and the desired durability of the final product.

We are proud to have been cherry-picked from among many available epoxies as THE ONLY EPOXY RESIN COATING PRODUCT in this line up featuring other non-epoxy products, such as paints or products containing only small amounts of epoxy in their chemical make up, such as Rust-Oleum floor paint. The article mentions other floor treatment options like interlocking tiles or mats. Epoxy is the Cadillac solution.

It comes as no surprise, that epoxy resin coatings stacks up on top for their durability, water-resistance, and stain resistance as well as longer serviceability. We all have seen oil spill marks and hot tire pick up on garage flooring. Epoxy flooring is much more forgiving. The article agrees with our opinion that epoxy resin floor is a deluxe flooring solution with “an impact-, stain-, and crack-resistant surface” that can come “in a variety of colors to match your garage’s design.” 

This Old House states that you can expect 10 to 20 years of usability before the need to be replaced - we can even say that you can re-apply epoxy down the line to produce a brand new look with less prep work than needed initially. 

There are industry standard ways to deal with concrete prep to assure your project is a long-lasting success. There are steps to follow and choices to be made depending on whether you have a brand new slab, renovation, or a rehabilitation project on your hands. Give us a ring for advice! 

Do you want to use This-Old-House-recommended Colored Epoxies epoxy resin kit to prepare your garage floor to take-a-beating-and-still-look-great?

We are here to help.
