Frequently Asked

Epoxy is a high-build, cost-effective base that bonds deep into prepped concrete but ambers under UV and takes longer to cure. Polyaspartic is UV stable, far more abrasion and chemical resistant, and cures fast enough to walk the same day. Most of our garage systems use an epoxy or MVB base coat with a polyaspartic clear top coat.

No — we carry a range of products for different jobs. Some, like our high-build and moisture vapor barrier coats, are 100% solids. Others, such as certain sealers, stains and water-based clear coats, are not. Tell us the job and we'll spec the right product for it.

We stock 1/4 inch genuine vinyl flake in 40 lb boxes. 1 inch flake is available by special order — call or send a quote request and we'll get it on the next truck.

Yes. Mechanical prep — diamond grinding or shot blasting to a CSP 2-3 profile — is the single biggest factor in whether a coating lasts. Acid etching alone is not enough for a polyaspartic or 100% solids system.

If the slab is new, below grade, or has no vapor retarder under it, test it. Anything over about 3 lbs MVER or 75% RH needs an MVB base coat or the finish system can blister and delaminate.

Typical polyaspartic systems are foot traffic ready in 4-8 hours and vehicle ready in 24-48 hours at 70F. Cold slabs slow the cure — plan on the long end below 50F.

Yes, within limits. Our polyaspartics stay workable in cold Idaho garages, but pot life shortens as temperature rises and cure stretches as it drops. Keep the slab above 40F and rising, and never coat concrete that is within 5F of the dew point.

No. Add material to your cart and reserve it — we confirm stock and final pricing, then you pay in person when you pick up in the Treasure Valley.

Guests can check out with just a name, email and phone. An account keeps your order history in one place so repeat orders take about ten seconds.

We call or text once your material is staged, and your order status updates to Ready for Pickup under My Orders.

Local pickup is standard. For larger commercial orders across Ada County and the Treasure Valley we can arrange freight — note it on your quote request.

Dust mop or blow it out, then damp mop with a neutral pH cleaner. Skip acids, citrus degreasers and anything with soap film. Rinse road salt off in the winter.

Polyaspartic top coats are UV stable and will not amber. Straight epoxy topcoats will yellow with direct sun exposure, which is why we top every exposed system with polyaspartic.

All Crown Polymers and Westcoat material carries the manufacturer's material warranty. Because we supply rather than install your floor, workmanship coverage depends on who applies it — ask us and we'll point you to installers we trust.
