If your garage floor looks fine now, the real question is—how long will it stay that way? In Maryland’s humid climate, durability comes down to what’s underneath. At Garage Floor Coatings of Maryland, we take no shortcuts. That’s why every project starts with a foundation of our moisture-mitigating, 100%-solids garage floor epoxy—because lasting strength is built from the base up.
Why Most Coatings Don’t Go the Distance
You can’t judge a coating by its surface. Many installers use water-based epoxy. As the coating cures, depending upon the %-solids content, a percentage of the material disappears, leaving behind a thinner layer.
Others promise fast “1-day” installs that use quick-curing polyurea or polyaspartic coatings as BOTH the direct-to-concrete base coat and single clear top coat. As good as these products are as top coats, they’re poor base coats, especially in the presence of medium to high moisture content. Under these conditions, the fast-cure coatings cure faster still. So fast (in under 1 hour), they fail to deeply penetrate the concrete slab. So the wafer-thin base coat is susceptible to moisture-related issues like high hydrostatic pressure—especially when applied in Maryland’s muggy conditions.
What Sets GFC’s System Apart
GFC doesn’t use quick fixes. Our system begins with a moisture-mitigating, 100%-solids garage floor epoxy, a premium-grade base coat that:
- Cures without shrinking, because it contains no water or solvents
- Forms a true chemical bond with concrete for maximum adhesion
- Slowly cures and deeply penetrates the concrete to deliver excellent moisture mitigation, a must in Maryland’s damp garages and basements
- Lays the groundwork for our 100%-solids polyaspartic topcoats that add beauty, UV resistance, and toughness
This multi-layer approach, installed over two days, is built for homes that expect more from their garage floor.
