Default Epoxy clear coat quetsion from the UK.

Quick question from the UK

I stumbled across this fantastic site whilst on a long night shift and I have to say I am very impressed with the dedication, support and hard work that is put in by the members.
I will be taking inspiration from here into my garage/workshop over-haul in the near future.

I have a simple question and looking for a recommendation.

I am looking into painting my floor with this as it seems to come well recommended:

http://www.promain.co.uk/product/Sik...r_Resin_id3777

But I want a very glossy / mirrored finish. So I was wondering if I could overcoat this product and if so what would give the best shine and also a good hard finish.

Thanks in advance
Dan

You need to ask the supplier of the coating what to use.

Dan:

Use a good primer, 100% solids (thick) base coat and a clear urethane or equal topcoat.

Make sure you have a near dust free environment.
