The surfaces must withstand extreme weather conditions which include desert sun, monsoon rains and freezing winter nights. The concrete material breaks down because UV radiation causes color loss and water damage leads to spalling and caliche soil pressure.

The solution isn't always replacement. Professional concrete coatings and staining work as cost-effective solutions because they enable complete transformation.The decorative concrete team at Epoxee provides services throughout El Paso County while maintaining the same quality standards during preparation and product selection.

Concrete Coatings & Staining

Concrete Coatings & Staining are two different things:

Concrete Staining Options

Here are all the options of staining that are given below:

Acid Staining & Chemical Reaction

Acid staining is a method that uses hydrochloric acid and metallic salts to create decorative stains. The process creates permanent earth-tone marbled colors which resist peeling and chipping. The unique appearance of each stained concrete floor results from differences in aggregate materials and surface texture.

Water-Based Concrete Staining

Water-based concrete stains provide more color options than acid stains through their staining method. The system provides design flexibility through its base which includes 3 primary colors and custom concrete shades. The water-based stains create a translucent color-wash effect through their ability to penetrate concrete surfaces.

Concrete Coating Options

Options of Coating that are given below:

Polyaspartic Coatings | UV Stable, Fast Cure

The ultimate solution for UV protection on outdoor concrete surfaces exists in Polyaspartic coatings which work as the most UV-resistant. The high UV index of 9 to 11 which occurs daily in El Paso forces standard epoxy topcoats to develop yellowing and chalking problems. The UV-stable nature of Polyaspartic chemistry enables driveways and patios and pool decks to maintain their clear and shiny look for multiple years.

Acrylic Concrete Sealers

For customers who want color enhancement and basic protection without a full coating system, Epoxee applies penetrating and film-forming acrylic Concrete Coatings that deepen the natural color of concrete, repel water and staining, and provide a low-gloss or satin finish. Common applications include existing concrete patios, sidewalks, and exposed aggregate driveways.

Decorative Overlay Systems

Micro-toppings and concrete overlays serve as thin cement-polymer coatings which completely transform existing slab surfaces. The coating enables worn concrete surfaces with pitting and discoloration to receive a new surface treatment which artists can use for staining or stamping. The product functions in commercial lobbies and residential kitchens and retail spaces which require a polished concrete or tile appearance.

Commercial Epoxy Flooring Options
