CASE STUDIES
Nov 15th 2025
Before we get into the case studies there a few things you need to know if you want your floor to come out looking like a professional did it at a fraction of the cost, and never have to worry about doing it again. It's important to know the difference between all the various types of epoxy floor coatings.
The first thing to know is there's a lot of noise in the market place and it can be very confusing when trying to purchase and epoxy floor coating ror your home or business. Such as claims from various companies that "polyspartic or polyureas are 10X stronger than epoxy", first of all, polyspartic and polyurea are epoxies; second, they're stronger than which and what type of epoxy? They're many different types of epoxies, we know, we've made and installed them all! We know what real epoxy is, what works and what doesn't.
So when you read 10X stronger, ask 10X stronger than water-based epoxy? 10X stronger than big box store epoxy or fake 100% solids epoxy? If so then maybe the answer is yes. The answer is no when compared to ArmorGarage military grade solids epoxies. The answer is no when compared to ArmorGarage military grade solids epoxies.
Most of those 10X epoxies and one day epoxies wear off before you know it and good luck trying to get your floor redone under guarantee!
Some companies tout high-solids epoxies as good enough for garage floor duty. No, they're not unless your main criterion is to save some money. ArmorGarage considers them as primers, plain and simple and you should too. Also, beware of the fake 100% solids epoxies. What are fake 100% solids epoxies? They are epoxies, usually imported or ones made with lower-grade raw materials, and do not have 100% solids in both weight and volume. If you read the spec sheet and don't see 100% in weight and volume, it's not 100% solids. Also, very few, if any, are military grade solids lIke ArmoGarage epoxy. All solids are not equal!
Trying to save a few dollars is never a good idea when doing a garage floor with epoxy, it always winds up costing you double or triple in the end.
ArmorGarage has a long and proven track record of being the best looking and most durable garage floor epoxy coating. We put the proof right out there, see our case studies below of 16 and 17 year old floors. Plus we have fast free shipping, the most informative epoxy flooring website and the best customer service in the business!
An epoxy floor coating is usually a two-part coating that you mix and will adhere to your garage floor or any concrete floor much better than any conventional oil-based, water-based, or enamel paint, think epoxy glue type adhesion vs duct tape adhesion. An ArmorGarage epoxy floor will be: easy to clean like a non-stick pan, waterproof, mold & mildew proof, and tough as nails, and we mean it!
OUR EPOXY FLOOR COATINGS
We get calls everyday from customers who went to a big box store or went online and bought what they thought was a heavy-duty product with a good warranty, or what they thought was a good deal without doing any research.
Then they had to buy an additional epoxy kit(s) to cover the floor properly so that the concrete didn't bleed through. Then when it failed very prematurely, they found out the hard way like Larsa Pippen did when she bought her new home and had her garage done by a "garage floor expert" and had it turn into a nightmare in a liitle over a year! She contacted us and we got her intouch with a good local installer who had to do a messy diamond grind to remove all the failed epoxy from her floor. We sold her our Armor Granite Garage Epoxy kit in Pattern 7 with a primer and the military grade topcoat. Her floor went from this:
To this gorgeous looking floor that she will nevery have to worry about for the next 15-20 years and at that time all that will be needed to bring the floor right back to the way it looks now is to roll on a new topcoat.
Our garage floor epoxy systems are engineered to take all the guesswork out of doing your floor. When you buy one of our floor systems, you can rest assured that all you need to do is get your floor prepped and supply the elbow grease and our product won't let you down! It will make childs play out of road salts, hot tires, floor jacks, oversized tires and vehicles.
HERE'S ONE VIDEO THAT WE THINK SAYS IT ALL. ARMOR CHIP GARAGE EPOXY VERSUS HEAVY DUTY OFF THE SHELF EPOXY
We try our best to help you avoid what happened to Larsa from happenming to you. Thinking you're putting down or getting a great heavy duty epoxy product when in fact you're getting the opposite. Keep in mind when you watch the video below that the non ArmorGarage part has no vehicle traffic on it!
This Is A Video Update On Armor Chip Garage Epoxy Floor Installed 16 Years Ago To Prove Armor Chip Is As Good As We Say It Is! The Original Video Is Still On Our YouTube Channel For Comparison! You Won't Find Proof Of Old Age Floors From The Competition!+
You'll see that after 16 years the floor still looks new! This is with several vehicles including a very heavy SUV twisting and turning in and out of their respective parking spots. This floor has got another 10 years in it before a refresher topcoat will be needed so you can imagine how durable your floor will be if you're pulling your vehicle straight in and out! You simply are not going to get this type of performance with any other epoxy type or brand!
Here's another example which is out of the ordinary. You won't see any other epoxy flooring company post a video or images like these. Because they can't!
When you first look at the images below you're going to say to yourself OMG that floor looks absolutely terrible. We would agree with you and couldn't be prouder of it! This floor has been abused from the day it was put down 17+ years ago by nonstop forklift traffic, pallet jack traffic, rolling ladders, hand trucks and dollies with an average of 3000 people a day for 12 hours a day 365 days a year with never being cleaned or maintained and employees dragging wooden pallets across the floor all day by hand to boot! It's the equivalent of running your car 100,000 miles a year for 17 years with no maintenance. Any other coating would have been vaporized off the floor back to bare concrete in under a year.
So rolling your car, SUV, riding mower, boat trailer, tool chests, floor jacks or large power tools in and out of or around your garage is child's play for our garage floor coatings. This is an extreme example and this floor should have been re-topcoated several years ago when the clear coat started to wear off but they are so busy they just don't have the time and they think the floor is fine! Which is understandable if you saw what the floor looked like beforehand and the fact that every other product they used never lasted more than 6 months! When we say ArmorGarage floors are the most durable, we mean it!
