The base coat is where your design comes into play. We can mix any number of colors, waves, patterns, even stenciled graphics into your floor design. Our designer always uses a roller to smooth the surface and eliminate air bubbles. Any decorative finish, vinyl flakes, or other design elements will be added, This process can take 12-24 hours to cure.
The Top coat is where your custom design will be sealed in for good. Our team can also mix in an anti-slip additive if needed. After your top coat is applied and the design is complete, your new floor will take 24-72 hours to cure before heavy use. Ensure proper ventilation during this time to help with off-gassing.
Your designer will walk the floor and personally check for imperfections, such as bubbles or uneven areas. She will address any minor issues with additional resin or sanding, if necessary.
