Metallic Epoxy Floors
Many people have come to notice the uniqueness and elegance of metallic epoxy floors from images in the internet or in showrooms and restaurants. Most of them have always been intrigued of the materials that have created such amazing floors.
How Metallic Epoxy Floors Work
Metallic epoxy floors are created with low yellowing epoxy mixed with glitter-like metallic pigments.
- Metallic pigments are mixed with the epoxy resin and then poured on the concrete floor.
- When a roller, paintbrush or squeegee gets into contact with the metallic pigments, they come together, separate, turn and twist and light reflects at different angles.
- When the epoxy material hardens, the metallic pigments get locked in place producing a 3-dimensional and swirly appearance.

Our installers are well-experienced in metallic epoxy floor application to achieve your desired look. We use different techniques to manipulate the concrete surface to create different effects.
The techniques we use determine the final appearance of the floor. We only use 100% solid epoxy products to achieve the best results. There will not be two metallic floors that will look alike.
We use special additives and pigments to create various 3-dimensional visual effects including:
- Ripples or two-toned swirls to create a three-dimensional water effect.
- Metallic and satin-like finish.
- Bold patterns to mimic the look of moon craters or galaxies.
- Glitters or quartz-like chips or flakes.
- Multi-colors to reflect the look of polished marble.
Regular epoxy is a mixture of equal parts of a resin and hardener applied over concrete floors and left to cure to create a strong and durable flooring system.
Metallic epoxy requires the artistry of the epoxy installer to capture the true essence of concrete floors to create a unique one-of-a-kind flooring system.
Installation of regular epoxy flooring should be preceded by proper preparation of the concrete surface to get rid of dust, dirt, grime and old coatings as well as to repair concrete imperfections such as chips and cracks.
Imperfections in the concrete surface do not need to be repaired prior to metallic epoxy flooring installation. These imperfections can in fact add extra details to the resulting work of art. The concrete surface should however still be cleared of dust, dirt, grime and old coatings. If the cracks and chips are not to be part of the artwork it should be filled to create a smooth surface.
Metallic epoxy is ideal for use in areas where a unique flooring system is desired. Residential interiors, auto showrooms, bars, restaurants, retail establishments and even garage floors can benefit from the unique and alluring look of metallic epoxy floors.
