Tips For Properly Sealing An Epoxy Pebblestone

By Marla Mills


Flooring is an important topic when dealing with the house's interiors. The person will have to pick the right type of flooring for the house. The best one is definitely an epoxy pebblestone. This is the best to use for patios and even bathroom floors. It will give off a zen-like feeling to those who are using the said flooring.

It is easy to take advantage of this flooring, especially since it is the kind of project that the homeowner can do personally. With this project, what the homeowner just needs are the pebblestones, hardener, resin, mineral oil spirits, and trowel. The homeowner will need to lay down the pebblestones well, and this can be done without any difficulties.

It will also be good if the person can pressure wash the said flooring type once it has been laid correctly. The surface cleaner should be used for this. After the pressure washing with the surface cleaner, one will then have to seal the said surface so that it can be kept intact. Sealing it will also give it a shiny coating.

For those who are going to personally seal their flooring, here are some of the things that one will have to use. The person will need to have some face masks, goggles, vinyl gloves, and trowel. Aside from that, the person will also need acid detergent, surface cleaner, solvent-based clear acrylic sealer, pre-purchased sodium hypochlorite, and high alkaline detergent.

Since the homeowner is dealing with acid detergent, the danger will be quite high. To avoid any injuries that might be acquired while doing this job, it is necessary to wear the protective clothing one has prepared. Aside from that, it is highly recommended for the homeowner to wear long sleeves and long pants.

The first step of this DIY project all has something to do with acid detergents. The person should make sure to pour them evenly on the surface. Once done, the next thing to do is to apply an even coat of surface cleaner. By simply doing this, one can easily prevent any potential damages.

Get the pre-purchased sodium hypochlorite and high-alkaline detergent. One will need to mix them before applying the mixture evenly to the surface. Just like with the application of the acid detergent, make sure to immediately go over it with a surface cleaner. Cover the entire surface to remove dirt and kill mold or mildew. Let it settle for at least 24 hours.

The person will then have to use the solvent based acrylic sealer. The person will need to apply one coating of the sealer. It should be easy to do this with the help of a trowel. After this has been applied, completely dry it off by following the label instructions. Do an application of the sealer a second time.

If the homeowner can do the said steps properly, one can expect a good result out of this. There should be a lot of things that the homeowner can take advantage with this. Just make sure to make the right choices when dealing with the epoxy pebblestone as the homeowner's flooring.
