Decorative Flake Finishes in Clifton Park, NY
Decorative flake finishes add color and texture to garage floor coating systems, giving Clifton Park and Albany-area garages a more polished and finished look.
What Is a Decorative Flake Finish?
A decorative flake finish — sometimes called a vinyl chip or flake broadcast finish — is one of the most popular ways to upgrade a garage floor coating. During installation, small vinyl flakes are broadcast into a wet base coat of epoxy or polyaspartic, then sealed with a clear protective topcoat.
The result is a speckled, textured surface that looks more polished than bare concrete or a solid-color coating. The flake pattern can add visual interest, help disguise minor surface imperfections, and provide texture underfoot.
Flake finishes can be paired with either epoxy or polyaspartic coating systems. Color blends can range from subtle gray and tan neutrals to more distinctive blue, charcoal, or custom blends.
