What are the disadvantages of a DIY garage floor coating? Why is a polyaspartic floor installed by experts like the team at Hello Garage of Memphis the preferred solution? Here\u2019s how DIY garage flooring solutions like epoxy and other do-it-yourself garage floor paints stack up to expertly installed polyaspartic garage floor coatings.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Frequent Cons of DIY Garage Floor Coatings<\/h2><\/div>

Many DIY garage floor coatings, epoxy kits in particular, come with considerable drawbacks. From lack of long-term durability to a difficult application process, here are some of the frequent disadvantages homeowners encounter with a DIY epoxy coating.<\/p>\n<\/div>

DIY garage floor options lack long-term quality and durability<\/h3><\/div>

A DIY epoxy garage floor or floor painting often lacks the strength and resilience of polyaspartic floor coatings installed by professionals. Unlike polyaspartic, which is a long lasting and flexible surface, epoxy flooring is more vulnerable to splintering, breaking and chemical damage \u2014 especially in heavily used garages. Garage floor painting can easily flake off under heavy use.<\/p>\n<\/div>

DIY epoxy floor coatings are susceptible to UV Damage<\/h3><\/div>

Unlike polyaspartic coatings, most DIY garage floor coatings aren’t UV stable. This means even the best DIY garage floor coating made from epoxy can lose its color, develop a yellow tint or degrade when exposed to sunlight \u2014 even light coming through garage windows or open doors.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Installing a DIY garage floor can be time consuming and complicated<\/h3><\/div>

Unfortunately, DIY epoxy garage floor kits and other do-it-yourself coatings available for purchase typically end up requiring multiple coats with extended curing times in between, sometimes requiring several days to complete. Any mistake in blending or timing can mess up the entire project and lead to unsatisfactory results. Our polyaspartic floors harden more rapidly and are put in by skilled technicians.<\/p>\n<\/div>

An epoxy floor needs extensive surface preparation.<\/h3><\/div>

For the best outcome, the concrete surface of a garage floor must be meticulously cleaned, dried and often ground or acid-etched prior to installing an epoxy floor. This type of prep work is difficult and time consuming for homeowners using DIY epoxy garage floor kits. At Hello Garage of Memphis, we manage the prep work ourselves using specialized machinery.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Fumes from DIY garage floor coatings may pose potential safety hazards<\/h3><\/div>

Without proper safety gear, fumes produced when applying your own garage floor can be risky, especially in an unventilated space. You can protect yourself and your family from this potentially dangerous situation by hiring a professional garage floor coating company to do the installation.<\/p>\n<\/div>
