One Day Installation

One day installation is possible with V8 Coatings because of the proprietary properties of our coating. On a floor of about 1,000sf- you will have about 4-5 hours in prep work (diamond grinding – never chemical etching). From the minute the primer coat is applied, only 20 – 30 minutes is required before the second coat is ready to be applied. The chip coat requires about 45 minutes before scraping off excess chips. This is the longest wait time between coats. With most projects, by the time you are done applying one coat (takes about 20 – 30 minutes to cover a 1,000sf), you can immediately start on the next coat. Standard epoxy requires 5 – 24 hours between coats. Allow about 3 hours for applying all coats and within 8 hours of the time you started prep work, you will have a completed project.  5 hours after completion, the floor is ready for traffic.
