Customer Reviews for DAICH DaiHard Industrial Strength 3.7 Qt. Gray Gloss 100% Solids Epoxy Concrete Floor Coating Kit

Great product. Not cheap, but worth the $$. My first two floors were done in one coat, and I had some spots where the epoxy absorbed into the concrete leaving a translucent coverage area in spots (util and storage rooms, was not a big deal). For the rec room, I did a primer coat, and a second finish coat after 22 hrs, which worked great and I recommend highly. Using this way at a total rate of 1.25 units per 100 sqft. [for example, 400 sqft garage, using 5 x 3.7 liter of product. I have been topping these coatings with Foundation Armor UTN60 high gloss aliphatic urethane coating, which is also great. It smells really bad, inside on basement floors we had to leave the house for 24 hrs just after painting (smells like plastic model glue, times 20). I will use two coats of this UTN60 on the garage floor, with extra heavy chips on epoxy. PS. used more chips than come with epoxy on two floors. Personal preference...

Worked better then I could believe

Easy to use, just follow directions carefully. Took a while to cure as temp was near min for use. Once cured, very nice and glossy (looks almost wet).

First, the Daich 100% is true epoxy. 100% solid is the best coating in epoxies. 1-part paint epoxy is an epoxy, but you will experience exactly what you'd expect from just regular paint. This is not paint epoxy. At even a very thin coat, this drys around 4mil thick. That is 3mil thicker than other options you can purchase at HD. If you take regular paint of slop it on the floor, that's the dried thickness of this product. Excellent. If it's not 100% (which I don't think HD sells may of), it shrinks down as it dries--basically to flat. Unlike other options which roll on with high viscosity (showing their lack of thickness), Diahard100 is more of a "goop." From first seconds of mixing, it's more sludgy. and stiff. While unnerving at the start, it has a 60 minute work time. That is a good thing. I've tried real 2-part water epoxy and the other kits sold here. None are as thick as this kit. You may get more product in other kits, but you aren't getting the best product. I do think the addition 1 kit cost is worth it. If using in a basement like I did, a 25 dollar bucket head shop vacuum perfectly cleaned up the concrete etching product packed in the kit. This etch is not the mercurial acid type you read about being dangerous. It is safe and effective at lightly etching while cleaning. Just did my basement while waiting for carpet after corona virus to pass. I was 100% nervous this would be a disaster. It was excellent.

Outstanding results and exceeded my expectations.

Is very good

Excellent product that we used in a business setting. Highly recommend professional installation - this is NOT a do-it-yourself project if you want great results.

I used it on the cinder block walls in my basement. This stuff is AWESOME!
