Cool Floor You May Not Have Seen Before

Epoxy Overlays Not Just for Garages

Here's something completely different for you but cool for your next flooring project; epoxy..............inside the house.  This picture was taken of a floor we did with a product called Liquid Dazzle.  It's an epoxy overlay that goes on super thick with a hand trowel and covers imperfections with essentially a brand new surface.  The interesting thing is there is a depth that to me in unrivaled by other surfaces that can best be described as granite looking.  There are different colors and it's tough as nails due to it's roots in commercial applications.  One downside is it may have a tendency to show scratches.  All floors have ups and downs but overall this surface is sure to impress.  The cost is approximately $8-10/sf to put down, so it lies somewhere between tile and wood but I don't think I've ever seen this product applied in any of the houses I've been in before or since. So that means it's unique and sometimes being a little different can be a good thing.
