What Makes a High-Quality Epoxy Coating?

A quality epoxy coating should do more than just look good. It needs to perform under real conditions. The best epoxy systems are formulated to provide strong adhesion, consistent coverage, and long-term durability.

Key features of a professional epoxy coating include:

  • High solids content for strength and thickness

  • Strong bond to properly prepared concrete

  • Resistance to chemicals, oil, and abrasion

  • Smooth, self-leveling finish

  • Compatibility with flake, quartz, and metallic systems

These characteristics help ensure the floor holds up year after year, not just for the first season.


Why We Use RockHard USA Epoxy Systems

At KS Epoxy & Contracting, we use RockHard USA epoxy systems because they meet the standards we expect for both residential and commercial flooring projects.

RockHard USA epoxies are formulated as 100% solids systems, meaning there are no fillers or excess solvents that weaken the coating as it cures. This allows the epoxy to form a dense, durable surface that bonds tightly to the concrete.

When installed correctly, RockHard USA epoxy provides:

  • Excellent adhesion to prepared concrete

  • Strong resistance to stains, chemicals, and impact

  • Consistent performance across different applications

  • A reliable base for solid colour, flake, quartz, and metallic finishes

These systems allow us to customize the look of a floor while still maintaining the strength and durability needed for everyday use.


Versatile Epoxy Systems for Different Spaces

RockHard USA epoxy coatings can be used in a variety of applications, including:

  • Residential garages

  • Basements and utility rooms

  • Workshops and hobby spaces

  • Commercial and light industrial areas

This versatility allows us to match the right epoxy system to how the space will actually be used.


Proper Preparation Is Just as Important as the Product

Even the best epoxy coating will fail if the concrete isn’t prepared correctly. Surface preparation, moisture control, and proper application techniques all play a critical role in the success of an epoxy floor.

That’s why every project starts with proper grinding and preparation before any coating is applied. A strong epoxy system combined with correct prep is what creates a floor that lasts.
