Maintaining Your Polyaspartic Flooring

Mario Salwan • February 9, 2024

Ask any garage flooring installer what the best garage floor coating in 2024 is, and they'll probably say "polyaspartic." Polyaspartic coatings were first developed in the 1990s specifically to be the best concrete coating on the market, addressing the problems that plagued alternative materials like epoxy and MMA. For nearly all garage uses, polyaspartic coatings are a "best of all worlds" option that gives you better strength and durability, but without being harmed by chemicals or sunlight.


With a polyaspartic flooring product such as Forever Floor, you'll have a garage floor that can last for decades - potentially for the entire lifespan of your house. Even better, polyaspartic coatings require very little maintenance and have an extremely low total cost of ownership over time.


However, there are still a few things you'd need to do, to ensure your polyaspartic floor remains in great shape for years. Here are the most important things to know!


Care Tips for Polyaspartic Flooring


1 - Hire Professionals for Installation

Properly installing concrete coatings is a tricky task, and it's not something that can be DIY'ed - at least not with any guarantee of success. You want experienced garage flooring installers who know how to work with resinous materials. They'll ensure that your polyaspartic floor starts off in the best possible shape, ready for decades of service.


Otherwise, a poorly installed polyaspartic floor could develop bubbles, cracks, or simply start coming loose from the concrete after a short time.


2 - Basic Cleaning

While polyaspartic floors are highly resistant to most serious damage. To keep your floor looking its best it's important to sweep the floor on a regular basis, to remove any dirt and debris or simply hosing the floor down is another option. After all, it's waterproof.


When you need to properly clean the floor, this can be done with basic soap, water, and a squeegee. 


3 - Clean up Spilled Chemicals Quickly

Polyaspartic flooring is highly resistant to chemical damage, but that doesn't mean you should leave spills such as oil leaks sitting around. Always be sure to clean up any spills quickly, particularly spills of acidic materials such as battery acid.

Epoxy Flooring
By Mario Salwan November 14, 2024
You might assume that getting an epoxy flooring installed means you are getting a high-performance flooring solution, but that is simply not the case. Many homeowners and business owners often find themselves disappointed by second-rate options that fail to deliver long-term durability and aesthetics. Let’s dive into the reasons why you shouldn't compromise on quality and what makes Garage Finisher’s Polyaspartic flooring a worthwhile investment. The True Value of Quality Garage Flooring Investing in high-quality garage flooring can significantly impact the longevity and appearance of your floors. Second-rate options may seem appealing due to their lower price tags, but they often come with hidden costs. Inferior materials can lead to peeling, cracking, and discoloration, ultimately requiring costly repairs or replacements sooner than expected. In contrast, Garage Finisher’s premium Polyaspartic flooring is designed to withstand heavy traffic, resist stains, and endure the rigors of daily use. We choose the highest quality products, to ensure that your flooring investment pays off in the long run. Why Quality Matters in Polyaspartic Flooring When selecting your garage flooring, it's crucial to understand the difference between various grades of materials. Our formulations contain superior polyaspartic resins and hardeners, providing enhanced adhesion and durability. This means your floors will not only look better but will also last longer. Low-grade options, on the other hand, may use epoxy that compromises the integrity of the flooring. This can lead to issues such as bubbling or chipping, which detracts from the visual appeal, functionality of your space, and longevity of the floor. The Aesthetic Appeal of Premium Polyaspartic Flooring Beyond durability, the aesthetic appeal of Polyaspartic flooring is another compelling reason to avoid second-rate options. Our quality flooring comes in a variety of colors, finishes, and designs, allowing you to customize your space to match your style. Whether you prefer a sleek, modern look or a more traditional aesthetic, high-quality Garage Finisher can enhance your environment. Second-rate flooring options often lack the versatility, slip-resistance, and visual appeal of premium products. Don’t settle for bland or unattractive flooring when you can have a stunning finish that elevates your entire space. If you have additional questions or would like to explore the best options for garage flooring tailored to your needs, contact Garage Finisher today. Our team is ready to help you make the best choice for your flooring project!

Not all garage flooring systems are created equal, and the difference in quality can affect the longevity and durability of your investment. While some companies cut corners with cheaper materials and lackluster service, Garage Finisher stands out for our commitment to excellence. In this blog, we’ll explore why Garage Finisher's Polyaspartic garage flooring system is superior to the Other Guys, and why it should be your first choice. Superior Materials for Long-Lasting Results At Garage Finisher, we use a proprietary 5-layer Polyaspartic flooring system that provides unmatched strength, flexibility, and durability. Polyaspartic flooring is a relatively new product, first developed in the 1980s and gaining widespread popularity in the 2000s. Its advantages over traditional epoxy are clear—epoxy tends to be brittle and prone to peeling, especially under hot tires, and it often requires frequent maintenance and reapplication. Polyaspartic, on the other hand, is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, high impact, and heavy traffic without peeling or cracking. Garage Finisher also fills in the joints of your garage floor seamlessly, something that epoxy systems often fail to do. The Other Guys, on the other hand, tend to rely on older, less durable materials like epoxy that can’t hold up to the same wear and tear. Their flooring systems often begin to peel or crack shortly after installation, especially in environments where tire friction is an issue. Hassle-Free Installation and Service Garage Finisher takes the stress out of garage flooring installation with a streamlined process that puts the customer first. We go above and beyond by removing all your garage contents for you, and storing them in our enclosed trailer at no additional cost. We even take care of disposing of any items you no longer need. After we complete the installation of your Polyaspartic flooring, we return your garage contents to the garage the very next day. That means you can start enjoying your newly finished garage without the long wait time. In comparison, The Other Guys often require you to move your own garage contents and makes you wait five days or longer for the floor to fully dry before you can return your belongings. This not only wastes your time but can also cause unnecessary strain and inconvenience. Choosing Garage Finisher means a fast, efficient installation process with minimal disruption to your routine. Unmatched Garage Flooring Warranties for Peace of Mind One of the biggest advantages of choosing Garage Finisher is our "No Exclusions" lifetime, transferable warranty. This comprehensive warranty covers any issues that might arise, with no hidden terms or annual re-sealing requirements. With over 15 years of experience and thousands of successfully installed floors, we stand by our work and are proud of our A+ rating. The Other Guys, on the other hand, often offer warranties that come with multiple exclusions and stipulations. These limited warranties often require expensive annual re-sealing or maintenance to remain valid, which can add significant costs over time. If a company needs a page of exclusions for their warranty, it’s a red flag—they’re expecting their floors to fail. Our team is here to answer any questions you may have and help you get started on your garage flooring upgrade. Don’t settle for the other guys— choose Garage Finisher for the best garage flooring and customer experience in Cleveland and the surrounding areas of Ohio.
