Garage Floor System

ONE DAY SYSTEM

The One Day System is a popular, convenient, and affordable floor coating. Grind the concrete early morning, apply the base coat late morning using one of the fast versions of the EPOXY PRIME BASE, to broadcast the chips into and then the top coat in the afternoon with the POLYASPARTIC 88 top coat.

Availability in Three Speeds

The chips are broadcasted into a base coat that’s available in three different speeds. EPOXY PRIME BASE cures in eight hours. EPOXY PRIME BASE FAST cures in four hours. EPOXY PRIME BASE FAST PLUS cures in two hours. (This is based on 70-75 degree temperature.) During summer and winter months, the cures will change accordingly. The ACCELERATOR can also be purchased separately and used to mix into the resin system on the jobsite. (This is a helpful option for those who wish to speed up the cure time on stem walls). In addition to the epoxies, ONYX also provides a CEMENTITIOUS PATCH which also has a quick turnaround time.

OTHER RECOMMENDED SYSTEMS

Though chips are most commonly used on garage floors, ONYX provides many other systems.

  • Build System (50 mils to 1/4″)
  • Thin Mil System (16 to 30 mils)
  • EPOXY HV System (20 to 40 mils)
  • Quartz System (100 mils to 1/4″)
  • Chip System (25 mils to 1/4″)
  • Metallics System (20-40 mils)
  • ADD 2K CRU WB for UV resistance
  • The 2K CRU WB comes in Gloss or Matte

Increasing the Lifespan

To increase the lifespan of the floor coating, simply install the base coat with more mil thickness. Though many apply the base coat at 150 SF p/g to achieve a 25 mil thick floor, applying the base coat at 100 SF p/g will help achieve a floor closer to 40 mils, thereby extending the longevity. Given the cost difference is minimal ONYX recommends that all their installers provide this as an alternative option for homeowners. As the years go by, the thicker floors will always look and perform better.
