Mix one batch of each epoxy product immediately prior to application. Apply your first coat of epoxy. Wait 24 hours for your first coat to dry. Check for problems before applying a second coat. Wait 12-16 hours for the crack filler to dry, if you used it. Apply a second coat with an added non-skid product. Let the second coat dry for 24 hours."
Begin in the back corner of the room, and work your way toward the exit. Dip your roller into the bucket, and spread a thin layer of epoxy primer onto your floor. Avoid letting the roller get too dry. It can help to use an extension handle on your roller. Be careful not to paint yourself into a corner. Remember to wear a respirator and keep the garage door open. Maintain adequate ventilation and avoid going near the floor while the primer coat cures. For best results, wait a full day before resuming work on the floor. Both epoxy primer and standard epoxy will come in 2 parts. These needs to be mixed together, one batch at a time, right before they are applied. Mix the two epoxy components for 5 minutes using a drill and stirring bit. Pour the entire contents into a second bucket and mix again. Epoxy kits are pre-measured. Mix all of part A together with all of part B to create the amount of epoxy listed. Most epoxy products (including most primers) have a "bucket life" of about 40 minutes. This means that the product must be applied within this time window before it hardens. Once again use a 34 inch (1.9cm) nap roller to apply your epoxy. Begin in the corner of the room, and make your way toward the exit. Try to keep the roller wet at all times, and try to keep your coat thin and even. Remember to mix the epoxy immediately prior to application. Move as quickly as you can without being sloppy. Epoxy has a short working time. Always make sure there is adequate ventilation during the drying process. Avoid going near the floor while the first coat cures. Plan to wait a day before applying a second coat. Curing time will vary slightly across epoxy products. Read and follow the manufacturer's directions for the product you select. Examine your floor for any problems that have appeared. This can include cracks, holes, or uneven surfaces that weren't visible before. Seal any cracks with an epoxy crack filler and/or sand down areas that are uneven. If you used sand paper, you may need to do another run with your vacuum to remove any debris. If you had to patch any new cracks in your first coat of epoxy, wait at least half a day for the crack filler to dry before applying a second coat. After mixing the epoxy for your second coat, consider adding a commercial non-skid product. Use a drill and stirring bit to blend well. Then apply your second coat. Begin in the corner and gradually move toward the exit. Add 34 fluid ounces (89118ml) per every 1 gallon (3.8l) of epoxy. Avoid going near the floor while the second coat dries. Make sure there is adequate ventilation. Give the floor a day to cure before walking on it or using it.
