    This next step with the epoxy floor is what I’ve been looking forward to seeing, being able to spray it down if needed will be such a help. It’s really coming along great!

    Dave in AZ me too. I’m hopeful that it will be as expected. You can’t beat how easy it is to clean up when you can do a full spray down. I hope to be done with the floor in the next week or so.

      Is your epoxy finish supposed to seal out all moisture??

        Denny O yes. It’s an industrial rubberized epoxy that is 100% waterproof, flexible and slip resistant.

                  bocephus right now it drains out on the ground. It has the ability to be drained into a portable gray water tank as well and I have access to a septic hook up at my slaughter site.

                                    Dave in AZ red is a pretty traditional color for meat processing floors. Most places I’ve worked in have this color flooring, whether USDA plant, custom shop or retail setting. I guess that is why I picked it. Blood stands out surprisingly well against this color, since as it dries it gets much darker and almost black. It should not be a hygiene issue.

                                        Managed to get 3 coats of epoxy over the entire floor. I’m pretty happy with the results so long as it holds up for awhile. It won’t be fully cured for about 10 days, but now I can move on to finish electrical and wall coverings.
