Epoxy Flooring – Its Benefits and How to Clean it?
Garage floor epoxy coating is the first choice for many homeowners. If you are one of
these homeowners, you know that cleaning the epoxy is important in order
to preserve the qualities that made you choose it. This should not be a
problem because epoxy floors are quite easy to clean. If you spot any
mold that needs to be cleaned, you will need to get some basic items.
These items are a scraper, a sanding sponge and a scraper.
You will begin by wearing the gloves, which aim to protect your hands
when you are removing any rust stains from the floor. Then, you will
get the scraper and use the blade in order to gently scrape the epoxy
floor to remove the mold. You have to make sure that you scrape along
any existing debris. It is important not to use the scraper
perpendicularly on the floor. After finishing the scrapping process, it
is the time to use the sanding sponge to sand the stain until it
disappears completely. While using the sponge, it is essential to work
along the same patterns and never cross these patterns with each other.
After the floor is sanded with the sponge, you will start cleaning
the debris by using a soft, dry, clean cloth. You can also choose to
apply an epoxy finishing material but you have to be careful, as you
will have to get one that has the same exact color as the floor. Apply a
very thin and an even coat over the sanded area. Leave it to dry before
applying a 2nd layer if needed. If you applied an epoxy
finish, you have to make sure that it is dry before stepping on it so it
does not smudge.
The benefits of using such flooring are countless. For starters, the
floors have an outstanding ability to absorb shock because of their
elasticity; this makes it quite popular among a lot of homeowners who
usually use this kind of flooring in the garage. This is because the
garage is one of the places that suffer from high car traffic and foot
traffic. Another advantage is that tire marks do not stick to the epoxy flooring, unlike regular concrete flooring. By following the simple
cleaning process that was mentioned above, you can get rid of these tire
marks in no time.
