KILZ 1-Part Epoxy Acrylic Interior/Exterior Concrete & Garage Floor Paint, Satin, Slate Gray, 1 gallon

It’s been down for a year in my shop and still looks good.

Was a little leery but was willing to give it a chance. Started out butting it down as a border and was being a bit too conservative with the application. Didn't realize this until I had let it dry. I was a bit more liberal with the roller and it turned out really well. It says two coats but I have to tell you, one coat looks great but I will do a second coat. I did not pay close enough attention to a couple of areas and didn't realize it was still wet. After completing the job, it became very obvious where the invisible wet areas were. Looked like glass while the dry areas were fine. Applied heat to the area then covered with a tarp to protect from night dew. Later on, it dried up and looks great. Cracks were a problem. They retained more moisture and it showed. Says it will fill 1/8" or smaller cracks. Well, not on the first coat so I will be generous on the second coat. If they still show, oh well, filler, grind and repaint area.

This goes on well. Looks great. My only complaint it peeks even after a second coat. So that was last summer. 2923. Here it is 2024 and I’m putting on another coat , sidewalk and driveway and we will see how it goes. Works better than most paints for concrete. Will continue with order.

I was thinking this would be more "epoxy" like having poured epoxy table tops. I was wrong, it is like using latex paint, just a little thinner. It will not dry if puddled, like in a small hole in your cement. You will have to fill the hole first or just find a way to apply a thin layer to the bottom, like using a brush. I left a puddle abount 1/2 inch deep for 24 hours and was able to use a brush to "paint" it out. It didn't dry on top like a latex would, or harden like an epoxy would. Just stayed a liquid. I had a 400 ft square area to cover. The first coat took 1 gallon and an additional 1/3 of the next gallon. The second coat was about 120 ft square short using the remaining 2/3 gallon, so keep this in mind when trying to figure out how much to purchase. If your concrete is new and glossy it may cover better, but if the first coat needs to fill in a rougher surface your going to need more. Clean up in water is easier than latex, didn't take much to remove from my hands, even with a little drying time. Final note, if you plan finish your floor with a covering of chips you will want to consider purchasing a clear coat finish as it is almost required to seal in those chips and make your floor look good. The chips are spread on after the last coat while the paint is still dry, so they stick to the surface. I will post pics once my floor is dried, before I clear coat, then after I clear coat.

Fantastic Product at a fraction of the big names. Works as advertised.
