The Benefits of Hands-On Epoxy Training

The popularity of epoxy flooring has grown rapidly over the past few years, so you are not alone if you are considering this decorative option to start your own flooring business or create unique pieces of art. Installing this type of flooring, however, can be challenging for someone who does not have any experience.

It can be difficult to master epoxy installation for some individuals if you rely solely on the internet for instruction. There are numerous tutorial videos and how-to guides available online. There is, however, a great deal of variation between the information provided by different websites. The terminology alone, such as "surface preparation" , "working time" , and "curing" , can be confusing for anyone who may be unfamiliar with epoxy.

The good news is that our hands-on epoxy training classes will prepare both novices and experienced professionals alike for the adventure of learning how to apply this versatile material.

Here are some key concepts you will learn as you work toward a certificate in epoxy coating.

Now let's cover the different coating systems discussed in the class.

Epoxy resin systems produce long-lasting surfaces that shines brighter and are perfect for any renovation project. Epoxy floor coatings are tough materials designed for resurfacing applications such as countertops, flooring, walls, bar tops, furniture, and tabletops. These coating systems can be finished with a variety of designs, including metallic, solid color, and glitter.

The rising stars in concrete flooring are polyaspartic floor coatings . These coating systems are made up of premium-grade materials that add an extra layer of protection to surfaces. These protective floor coatings cure within a few minutes at low temperatures and provide superior chemical, UV, and solvent resistance. Polyaspartic coatings work well in demanding environments with heavy traffic and require slip-resistant coatings.

Flooring contractors are not the only ones who suffer from damage caused by uncontrollable water vapor seeping through concrete slabs. Not only can this affect public health, but water vapor containing alkali can also cause structural failures of concrete slabs. Moisture vapor barriers are designed to protect and defend your concrete floors against the relentless threat of moisture damage. These floor coatings are the best solutions to guard your decorative flooring investments so they remain durable and resilient.
