Dust blows through this part of the Yuma Valley more than most, and a plain solid-color floor shows every bit of it between cleanings. A flake system breaks up the surface visually so dust, tire marks, and minor wear don't stand out the way they do on a solid color. San Luis Epoxy Pros builds flake floors for garages and patios where homeowners want a finished look that holds up to daily dust and traffic.

The layered system (base coat, flake broadcast, clear topcoat) also adds a bit more build thickness than a single-layer solid color, which helps on older slabs with light surface wear.

FAQs

Decorative Flake Flooring FAQs

What's the difference between flake flooring and plain epoxy?

Flake flooring adds a layer of color chips broadcast into the base coat before the topcoat goes on, which hides minor imperfections and dust better than a single solid color.

How much does flake flooring cost compared to solid color epoxy?

Flake systems typically run a bit higher than plain epoxy due to the extra layer and labor for broadcasting and scraping the chips evenly.

Does flake flooring take longer to install?

It adds roughly a day to the schedule compared to a solid color coat because of the broadcast and scrape step before the topcoat.

Can I pick a custom flake color blend?

Most suppliers offer a range of pre-blended color combinations, and some allow custom blends for an additional cost.

Is flake flooring durable enough for a daily-use garage?

When sealed with a quality clear topcoat, flake systems hold up to regular vehicle and foot traffic.
