Metallic epoxy flooring gives concrete a seamless, high-gloss “liquid metal” look that is tough enough for garages, retail, offices, and showrooms. Elite Epoxy Scottsdale has served Scottsdale since 2016, handling new installs and repairs with proper concrete prep, moisture testing, and durable clear topcoats.
Prep drives metallic results, so we start with the slab, not the color. We diamond-grind concrete with HEPA dust control, remove sealers and curing compounds, and repair spalls and cracks with fast-set epoxy mortar or polyurea crack filler, then re-profile to a consistent CSP (typically CSP 2-3 for metallic systems). Before we prime, we check flatness, degrease oil-stained areas, and run moisture tests (ASTM F2170 in-slab RH or ASTM F1869 calcium chloride) to prevent future blistering or delamination.
Arizona slabs see heat swings and vapor drive, so we match the build to the environment and your use. Where needed, we install a moisture-mitigating epoxy primer, then a high-solids 100% solids epoxy base coat tinted to your chosen tone. Metallic pigment is dispersed and manipulated with spiked rollers, squeegees, and airflow to create marble, cloud, vein, or “river” movement, then we lock it in with a clear coat built for abrasion and UV exposure (aliphatic polyurethane or polyaspartic depending on gloss, cure time, and budget). Slip resistance is tuned with aluminum oxide or polymer grit to meet the feel you want without killing the metallic depth.
Scottsdale customers choose us because metallic epoxy is equal parts coating science and controlled artistry, and we treat it like both. You get a written scope, clear expectations on pattern variability, and honest guidance on what will and will not hide existing slab flaws. Our crews are licensed and insured, we protect adjacent walls and finishes, and we keep the jobsite clean with taped containment and HEPA filtration. When repairs are needed, we focus on blending, feathering edges, and re-clearing for a uniform sheen, not just patching a spot that telegraphs through the floor.
At turnover, we walk the floor with you under real lighting and confirm gloss level, texture, edges, and transitions at doorways and drains. You receive cure and return-to-service times, cleaning guidance (pH-neutral cleaner, microfiber, no citrus solvents), and tips to prevent scratching from grit and steel casters. We also document the coating system used (primer, base, metallic layer, clear topcoat) so future touch-ups match. The result is a seamless metallic epoxy flooring surface that is easier to clean than bare concrete and built for daily traffic.
Most garage floors are completed with prep plus coating in one to two working days, then cure time before full use. Light foot traffic may be possible sooner, while vehicles typically return after the coating reaches a safe cure window based on the chosen system and temperatures.
Sometimes, but we do not guess. We test adhesion, identify the existing coating, and grind to a sound, well-bonded layer or to bare concrete. If the old coating is failing, coating over it will usually fail with it.
Smooth high-gloss floors can be slick with water or dust. We can add traction using aluminum oxide, polymer grit, or a textured broadcast and adjust the topcoat sheen to improve slip resistance while keeping the floor easy to clean.
Options include solid-color epoxy, full or partial vinyl flake blends, quartz blends, and metallic epoxy effects for interiors. Topcoats can be gloss, satin, or matte depending on the system, lighting, and desired look.
Yes, when scheduling allows. We can plan phases for back-of-house, service bays, or tenant improvements to reduce downtime, and we will outline cure times and return-to-service requirements in the written estimate.
Metallic epoxy flooring is a multi-layer resin system that uses pearlescent metallic pigments suspended in epoxy to create depth, movement, and a glass-like gloss. It is popular for upscale garages, lobbies, salons, restaurants, retail floors, and home interiors where you want a seamless surface that mops clean and resists staining. Elite Epoxy Scottsdale installs and repairs metallic systems with proper concrete profiling, moisture testing, and clear coats selected for abrasion, chemical exposure, and UV stability.
A high-end metallic floor starts with the slab. We remove weak laitance and contaminants, repair cracks and pop-outs, and address moisture before any resin is mixed. That reduces common failures like fisheyes, pinholes, bubbling, and edge lift. For repairs, we evaluate whether the issue is cosmetic (scratches, dulling) or systemic (moisture, bond failure), then recommend the right fix, often a sand and re-clear, or localized removal and re-coat with blended edges.
Metallic epoxy is also a design choice, so we help you select a base tone, pigment blend, and finish level that fits the space. High-gloss delivers maximum “liquid” depth but can show dust; a satin urethane can soften reflections while keeping the metallic character. In commercial settings, we can add texture for traction, and we can coordinate cove base transitions and clean terminations at thresholds for a finished look.
If you want metallic epoxy flooring that performs as good as it looks, start with a written plan and a contractor who controls prep, mixing ratios, and topcoat selection. We provide free written estimates, clear scheduling, and a final walkthrough with care instructions so your new floor keeps its shine for years.
