Unlike some coatings that emit strong fumes, our floor coating system is low-odor, making it ideal for indoor applications—even during colder months when your windows stay closed. You can have your garage floor coated in winter without worrying about ventilation.
Durable and Safe in Any Season
Our floor coatings are engineered to handle the demands of every season while enhancing overall garage floor safety. They resist heat, harsh chemicals, and damaging UV rays, ensuring long-term performance and appearance.
Unlike traditional coatings, ours prevent hot-tire pickup, so your floor won’t peel, bubble, or lift from the heat of your vehicle’s tires. Even better, they’re highly resistant to oil spills, road salts, de-icers, and a wide variety of common household chemicals—making them an ideal choice for garages that see everything from snow and slush to motor oil and lawn equipment.
Want Even More Traction? Here Are 3 Additives to Consider
While the textured finish offers slip resistance, some homeowners want extra grip—especially if their garage tends to get wet or icy. We offer several traction-boosting additives to customize your floor coating:
- Ground Polymer Grit: This additive consists of ultra-fine polymer beads that feel soft underfoot and are translucent when mixed into the topcoat. They improve traction without altering your color scheme. Plus, they come in different sizes to match your preferred texture level.

More: Known for its extreme durability, this industrial-grade additive offers serious traction, even in slick environments. While effective, it has a rougher texture that may feel abrasive and can make cleaning a bit trickier. It’s best suited for garages where maximum grip is a must.
- Silica Sand: This fine-grit option creates a gentle, bumpy surface ideal for residential use. However, it should be used with a colored topcoat, as it will be visible in clear coatings.
