Top coats
Hey team, anyone spraying polyaspartic topcoats with an airless sprayer?

They have special sprayers with each part coming in separate hoses and mix as it comes out, that's how they do industrial metal and stuff with poly

My Metallic Floor Failed 4 Months After My Install
Hello, I hope everybody is doing well today. I am just getting here to see if anybody has any information or experience with something similar to what’s been happening unfortunately I have my first Epoxy Flor failed on my career. This floor was performed with moisture barrier. Follow up with the metallic design everything coming up very good And four months and a half later customer called me and say hey my floor start getting some bubbles so I went out and I’m gonna attach a few files right here for y’all to look at. When I date my moisture reading with the {CMEX5 } my reading was 0.4 CONCRETE MC. Now I want to be clear not the entire floor is failing this is happening only 29 inches from the exterior wall perimeter into the interior slap. Everything else is in good shape.

@Daniel Virgen that's amazing, me being a rookie here, I've never seen this before 🤔
Uneven clearcoat
Hi all, We just finished putting down a coat of polyaspartic on a flaked floor and it has an uneven appearance. The customer picked torginols “white cap” hybrid which has mica in it as well. The flake almost looked uneven or like the white was pooling in one area while the blue was pooling in another, almost like clouds in the floor. So we scrapped and reflaked the whole floor… same thing The slab is about 4 months old and has a vapor barrier in place. The highest reading we got on our tramex was 1.5% The day of install the garage temp was between 47-50 degrees and the material was kept warm up until install Our system was Regular cure polyaspartic with full flake broadcast Scrapped both ways *reflaked floor due to odd appearance Scrapped both ways, acetone wiped Grout coat of regular polyaspartic Swing machine whole floor to flatten- acetone wiped Final coat of polyaspartic with flat squeegee, each section was backrolled both directions with no puddles I want to resolve this but am not sure what the best method is? I was thinking a HWU in a matte might help even out the appearance

@Sam Robinson might be a stupid question, but when you transferred flake into the bucket from the boxes, did you notice maybe uneven content , where in some spots there's more fine flake. Most of the time that stuff stays on the bottom, but I had that happen, thay guys throwing down flake didn't really pay much attention and instead of leaving that little bit of fine settlement from the bottom of the bucket ( i usually just leave that for scraps ,like fine scrape ) ,they throw it down on the floor and then it did show the spots where instead of having a 1/4" flake you have patches of 1/8" or even finer and that's where I would imagine the top coat will cover the area a little different, would probably make more glossy appearance than the rest of the surface. That's the only thing I can think of from top of my head, I'm looking at the Torginol hybrid sample pack and those ones seem to have a very broad spectrum of the flake size mixed, so if it's not "shuffled" real good, I can see how this could be happening

@Sam Robinson You know what you're doing man, I don't have much experience with HWU , you think it will flow out better than poly? Still adding anti slip to it ? Colder temps are definitely a bummer, that don't contribute to best overall results
