Imagine what your Orlando garage floor would look like once your new epoxy floor coating is installed! You can even add a clear polyurethane coating on top of the decorative colored- layer. Sure the price is a little higher, but the cost will be lower in the long run because your floor will last longer.  In fact, here are 8 reasons why you should add a top clear coating to your new epoxy garage floor:

1. Protects the Garage Epoxy Floor Coating. By adding a clear top coat, you will extend the life of your floor coating and add thickness to absorb impacts better. Driving your car in and out of your garage can take its toll on your epoxy floor coating.  One more coating is added protection against wear and prevents the colored coating from looking dull.
2. Adds Dimension to Your Garage Floor. Your floor’s surface will look like it has some depth to it, which will create a more luxurious look.
3. Increases the Glossiness of Your Floor. A clear top coating will enable the floor to reflect light better than just the colored coating. You may even save money on your electricity because you might not need to purchase additional lighting for doing projects in your garage.
4. Camouflages Scratches Better. Through years of wear and tear, a clear coat over your epoxy floor covering will hide scratches, making them less noticeable. You won’t need to have your epoxy floor coating redone so soon, saving you money.
5. Hides the Anti-Slip Additives. Normally, the anti–slip granules are added to the color coating layer and tend to stick out like little bubbles. Applying a clear coat hides them much better.
6. Makes Garage Floor Coating Easier to Clean. A clear top coat makes the epoxy floor covering smoother so your mop will just slide right over it. In addition, it prevents the color coat from dulling due to excessive scrubbing.
7. Creates a Fabulous Look. If you were to compare two epoxy floor coatings, you would be able to distinguish which floor had the extra clear coating. The clear top coating creates that “showroom look”.

If you are still hesitant about adding a clear top coating to your epoxy Orlando garage floor coating, don’t be a “penny wise and a pound foolish”. Think about the value it will provide by enhancing your floor surface and increasing its lifespan.
