Epoxy Floors With Glitter Put Sparkle Into Living Spaces

More and more new homes, offices, restaurants, and retail spaces are looking for attractive flooring that is unique, healthy, and easy to maintain. Now a touch of glitter can be added to epoxy flooring to create a subtle yet attractive surface. Most often a small-sized glitter is used and applied to a complementary background color of epoxy. Although the glitter does not stand out in bright sunlight, it is perceived as an attractive glint under mood lighting conditions. The floors sparkle with life and create a gentle and appealing ambience.

During the second coat of Dura Seal floor coating, the glitter is gently blown out over the floor while the epoxy is still liquid. Swirls settle in and are permanently trapped. A three-finger pinch of glitter with the applicator is all that is needed. The most common colors are silver or gold, but other colors or blends of colors are available including red, blue, green, and copper.

A personally customized floor is easily created by combining a choice of glitter with over 20 Durall Industrial Flooring epoxy colors, and/or dozens of colored chip options.

Other looks available include granite, tile, and slate. Logos, stripes and "yellow brick roads" are sometimes added to the floors of restaurants, "collector cars" garages, basements, and even food processing plants. The finish can be gloss, flat, or satin. Additionally, the floors may be skid-resistant, like emery paper, yet still easy to sweep or squeegee.

Epoxy flooring goes on at the job site and requires no seams. With no breaks in the surface, you end up with a continuous membrane that seals what is above from what is below. Mold, mildew, and other contaminants cannot penetrate the epoxy membrane and wash off easily.
