Decorative garage floors have become very polular in recent years because they are clean, bright and in most cases non slip. They resist water tracked in from rain and snow. They protect cars from premature rust caused by moisture vapor that wicks through concrete.
Until “Pure Bred” polaspartics were used to resurface garage floors the only quality concrete coatings were epoxies. However even the most skilled applicator can’t prevent epoxies from delaminating. Alkalinity in concrete will break down the molecular integrity of epoxies. Epoxies don’t expand and contract with concrete, they’re too brittle and can crack. Even the non-slip additives can become dislodged resulting in a danerously slippery floor.Epoxies sit on top of the concrete. Epoxies don’t penetrate below the surface of the concrete. The epoxy bond to the concrete can be broken by even modest amounts of rising vapor. 
Polyaspartics created by Bayer Material Sciences along with coating experts Joe Sheehan and Doug Bannister developed the One Day Floors system overcoming the shortfalls of epoxy. They expand with concrete, won’t lose their non-slip capabilities and won’t yellow. However polyaspartics have come under criticsm due to companies who don’t use “Pure Bred” polyaspartics. Deviating from the “Pure Breds” has been problematic. One Day Floors uses only the highest quality polyaspartics. Each gallon is blended in a controlled environment ensuring that every drop is the same.
