Automotive Floor Coatings in Los Angeles.

Residential pricing for automotive shop floor coatings in the Los Angeles market typically runs between the ranges quoted on our service pages, with the exact number determined by substrate condition, finish system, and square footage. Commercial pricing is always project-specific.

It depends on your slab, so we price it in person. The walkthrough costs nothing and takes about half an hour. The next morning you get a fixed price by email, and that number holds through the pour.

A standard residential pour runs two to three working days from prep to final topcoat. Larger residential or commercial pours can run four to fifteen days depending on system spec, substrate condition, and square footage.

You can walk on it 24 hours after the last coat of polyaspartic goes down. Give it 72 hours before vehicles or heavy equipment roll on it.

The coating holds because it bonds chemically with the substrate. That is why the prep matters so much, and why a properly prepped residential floor is built for lifetime adhesion.

The polyaspartic topcoat can be refreshed at the 8-to-12-year mark on heavy-use residential floors. The base resin stays bonded. Commercial systems are spec’d to traffic and chemistry; typical lifespan is 10-25 years on the resin layer.

With metallic epoxy, almost certainly. The pigments mix to any color, and past floors have included copper over bronze, ocean blue veined with charcoal, and plain black.

That depends on the floor system. A flake floor can be a stock pre-blended pack or a custom blend with no limit on combinations. Quartz has 14 standard colors and takes custom mixes. Concrete gets its color integrally in the pour or from a stain after it cures.

Each stage gets its own day, and the order is the same on every floor. The walkthrough and moisture test come first. Grinding to CSP-3 and crack repair follow. The pour, the broadcast and any signature work fill day three, and the polyaspartic topcoat goes on day four. We walk the finished floor with you on site and leave a written job spec.

Most of what decides how the floor ages happened on prep day, before the pour. Once it cures, the floor mostly takes care of itself: the base resin stays bonded to the substrate for the life of the floor, and only the gloss layer on top ever gets a second visit from us.

People ask what it takes to keep the floor looking the way it did on day one. Very little. A damp mop handles regular cleaning, and nothing about the system depends on a contractor coming back every year.

Most contractors in LA do one thing. We are licensed and trained in three: resinous coatings, decorative concrete and structural slabs, so a cracked slab under your coating does not get handed off to someone else. The owner walks each job and shows up on prep days, and the prep itself (grind to CSP-3, HEPA-vacuum, grind again) never gets cut.
