  •   Salt and Sand
  •   Moisture Pressure
  •   Freeze & Thaw
  •   Oil & Other Chemicals
  •   High Traffic
  •   Dropped Tools

How it works

  • 1. Buff and Repair

    We meticulously prepare your concrete floors for optimal coating adhesion and a stunning final result.


    Diamond-Grinding for Deep Cleaning and Optimal Adhesion


    This process not only removes dirt and grime, but also opens the concrete's pores, creating a superior bond for the coating.


    Dust-Free Environment for a Healthy Process


    We prioritize your health and a clean workspace. Our high-powered, dustless vacuum captures 97% of airborne particles, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment during the grinding process.


    Flawless Foundation - Crack and Spall Repair


    No detail is overlooked. We meticulously repair any cracks, spalling, or pitted areas in the concrete to ensure a uniform and durable surface for your coating.


    The result? A flawless foundation prepared for a breathtaking final finish that will last.

  • 2. Basecoat

    Polyurea is a waterproofing coating that is applied as a liquid and dries quickly to form a durable, waterproof barrier. 


    Polyurea has many advantages, including: 

    • Dries quickly
    • Lasts longer than epoxy
    • Flexible - expands and contracts with concrete
    • Easy to clean
    • Resists scratches, chemicals, oils, and salts

  • 3. Full Flake

    Our full flake flooring transforms tired floors into dazzling masterpieces. With 18 standard patterns and custom options available, we create unique, slip-resistant surfaces that are as tough as they are beautiful.

  • 4. Top Coat

    Our final step is to shield your floor in glistening, long-lasting brilliance with our Polyaspartic Clear Coat!


    Time is precious. With a rapid 24-hour cure time, you can enjoy your newly protected floor and space sooner than ever before.


    Bonus: Polyaspartic also emits minimal odor, making it a comfortable choice for indoor applications.


    In short, Polyaspartic Clear Coat is the ultimate shield for your floors, offering a dazzling, durable, and worry-free finish.

Why a Polyurea + Polyaspartic Topcoat is Best for Garage Floors

Imagine... a garage floor gleaming like a showroom, a basement transformed into a sleek entertainment haven, or any concrete surface protected against wear and tear for years to come. With Sonshine Coatings, that dream becomes reality.


Every project starts with the finest materials:


High-performance polyurea primer: Impenetrable adhesion for a rock-solid foundation.

Durable basecoat: Customizable colors and textures to reflect your unique style.

Crystal-clear polyaspartic topcoat: Unmatched UV resistance and a high-gloss shine that lasts.


More than just pretty, here are benefits that make polyurea + polyaspartic topcoat the clear choice over epoxy and other hybrid coatings:

Durability

Polyurea coatings pack a punch when it comes to durability, outlasting their epoxy counterparts. Imagine flexing with the resilience of rubber – that's polyurea. It shrugs off bumps, scratches, and even temperature extremes, while epoxy cracks under the strain.

Flexibility

Unlike the rigid stance of epoxy, polyurea coatings bend with the punches. With ten times the flexibility, it's the gymnast of protective coatings, able to adapt to movement and vibration without cracking or breaking. So, for a coating that moves with the flow, choose polyurea – the flexibility champion.

 

Protection

Polyurea coatings are fortresses for your floors. While epoxy might offer basic defense, polyurea repels a wider range of threats. Acids, solvents, even fire – they bounce right off. This is critical for the salt and chemicals we track in from our upper midwest winters. Plus, its seamless seal blocks moisture, preventing corrosion and rot.

Slip-Resistant

Polyurea coatings offer a firm footing where epoxy stumbles. Unlike its smooth, slippery cousin, polyurea comes with built-in grip, thanks to its textured finish. This built-in safety makes it ideal for garages, workshops, high-traffic areas, pool decks, and anywhere a slip could spell disaster.

Appearance

While both polyaspartic and epoxy coatings offer protection, polyaspartic takes the crown when it comes to maintaining a stunning appearance over time. Unlike epoxy, which yellows and fades under UV exposure, our polyaspartic topcoat boasts UV resistance, keeping your floors or surfaces looking vibrant and fresh for years to come. 

Low Maintenance

Imagine this: spills bead up and wipe away without a fight. Polyaspartic's non-porous surface repels liquids and dirt, making cleaning a breeze. No more scrubbing or harsh chemicals needed, just a quick sweep and mop, and your floor is sparkling again. Epoxy, on the other hand, can trap dirt and grime in its surface, requiring more elbow grease to keep clean.
