Not all garage floor coatings are created equal. Here's what you need to know before making your decision.
See how polyaspartic coating outperforms traditional epoxy in every critical category.
Feature | Traditional Epoxy | Polyaspartic Coating |
---|---|---|
Cure Time | 5-7 days | 48 hours |
UV Resistance | Yellows over time | 100% UV stable |
Durability | Moderate - chips easily | 4x stronger than epoxy |
Chemical Resistance | Good | Excellent |
Temperature Range | Limited (-10°F to 140°F) | Extreme (-40°F to 180°F) |
Lifespan | 5-10 years | 20+ years |
Recoating Needed | Every 5-7 years | Rarely (20+ years) |
VOC Content | Higher emissions | Low VOC |
Advanced chemistry delivers performance that traditional epoxy simply can't match.
Polyaspartic cures in just 48 hours, while epoxy requires 5-7 days. That means you can park your car and use your garage in 2 days instead of a full week.
For busy Houston homeowners, this means minimal disruption to your daily life. No week-long wait to use your garage again.
Epoxy yellows and fades when exposed to UV light - especially harsh Texas sun. Within a few years, your pristine floor looks aged and discolored.
Polyaspartic is 100% UV stable. Your floor maintains its original color and clarity for decades, even with direct sunlight exposure.
Laboratory testing shows polyaspartic is four times more resistant to impacts and abrasions than epoxy. Drop tools, drag equipment - polyaspartic handles it.
Epoxy chips, cracks, and peels under stress. Polyaspartic maintains structural integrity for 20+ years of heavy use.
Epoxy lasts 5-10 years before it needs replacement. That means you'll need to recoat your floor 2-4 times over 20 years.
Polyaspartic lasts 20+ years without needing recoating. One installation, decades of protection. It's a true set-it-and-forget-it solution.

Polyaspartic coatings utilize advanced chemical formulations that deliver superior performance characteristics. While the initial investment is higher than traditional epoxy, polyaspartic provides exceptional long-term value due to its extended lifespan of 20+ years and elimination of recoating expenses, making it the more cost-effective solution over the lifetime of your floor.
We offer unlimited color options for your polyaspartic coating system. Choose from a wide range of base colors combined with decorative flake blends in various sizes and color combinations. Our most popular finishes include natural stone blends, metallic flakes, and solid color systems—all available in high-gloss, satin, or matte finishes to match your aesthetic preferences.
Professional polyaspartic installation is completed in 1-2 days, with full cure achieved within 48 hours for vehicle traffic. By comparison, epoxy systems require similar installation timeframes but necessitate 5-7 days of curing before the surface can be utilized, resulting in extended project timelines and garage downtime.
Polyaspartic coatings feature 100% UV stability, maintaining color integrity and clarity indefinitely regardless of sunlight exposure—a critical advantage in the intense Texas climate. Unlike epoxy systems, which experience significant yellowing and discoloration from UV degradation, polyaspartic maintains its original appearance for decades without fading or color shift.
