Frequently Asked Questions
Garage Glow can coat virtually any concrete slab on a residential or commercial property. On the home side, that includes garage floors, basements, driveways, patios, and pool decks. For commercial clients, we work on auto shop floors, warehouse aisles, food-service kitchen surfaces, kennel runs, and aircraft hangars, using systems that are built for heavier punishment. Outdoor slabs require a coating plan that accounts for sun exposure, moisture, and pedestrian or vehicle traffic, while an interior garage floor has its own set of demands. Just let us know which surface you have in mind and we'll recommend the most appropriate system for it.
Absolutely — every estimate we provide is completely free of charge. During the visit, we evaluate the current condition of the slab, walk through the finish options that interest you, and outline the coating system best suited to the surface before giving you a firm price. That approach eliminates surprises once the project gets underway. Garage Glow schedules free estimates throughout Greater Atlanta, so getting accurate information about your floor is as straightforward as giving us a call.
Both epoxy and polyaspartic products are high-performance polymer systems, but they behave quite differently in practice. Polyaspartic topcoats cure at a much faster rate and are highly resistant to UV-induced yellowing, which makes them an excellent choice as the protective finish layer over decorative flake systems — particularly on surfaces that receive direct sunlight. Epoxy, on the other hand, is commonly used as a base or build coat due to its strong bonding characteristics. The ideal combination varies by project, so a sun-exposed patio may call for a different pairing than a basement or commercial shop floor. Garage Glow installs both types and will explain which approach suits your specific situation.
Concrete has to be mechanically profiled before a coating can adhere to it properly. Diamond grinding opens up the surface, strips away contaminants, and creates the texture that allows epoxy and polyaspartic materials to grip the slab rather than simply rest on top of it. Any cracks, chips, or deteriorated sections are repaired during this same stage so the coating is applied over a clean, structurally sound surface. Skipping this step is the primary reason coatings fail prematurely. Garage Glow diamond grinds and repairs every single floor before any coating product is introduced.
It depends on the state of the existing coating, which is always assessed before we make any recommendations. If the old material is well-bonded and in sound condition, it may be possible to coat over it after appropriate surface preparation. If it's peeling, bubbling, or showing poor adhesion, it will need to be removed entirely so the new system has a stable base to bond to. Garage Glow evaluates the existing coating during your complimentary estimate and explains which approach your floor requires.
