Metallic Epoxy Garage Floor Install — Full Real-Job Walkthrough

Watch a full metallic epoxy garage floor install — bare slab to mirror finish. A real Floor Rescue job, every step, no shortcuts. 🏁 This one's special: we built the floor to match the owner's '66 Chevy C10 in that baby-blue. It's a custom home on the lake we did for another contractor — a builder we've both worked with for over 10 years — so this floor had to be right. (Fun detail: I wore my baby-blue @truewerk work shirt on purpose the day we dropped the metallic.) Six or seven colors going on here — baby blue, gold, custom silver alchemy, pearls, mica sprays, pewter and a shot of navy — swirled custom, not linear, finished with a high-gloss ceramic top coat. I walk the whole thing: grinding & prep, moisture vapor barrier, sanding, dropping the metallic, and the top coat — plus the decisions and the "read the concrete" thinking behind each stage. Homeowner wondering what goes into a floor like this, or a coatings pro sharpening your process?
