A solid-color epoxy floor shows every scuff and speck of dust. Flake systems hide that same wear behind a textured, multi-color surface, which matters in a garage that sees tools, tires, and foot traffic every week.
Glendale Epoxy Pros installs flake systems with color palettes that fit Phoenix-area homes, from neutral earth tones to brighter blends for a more finished look.

DIY vs Pro
| DIY | Hire a pro |
|---|---|
| A small accent area, like a workbench corner, can work with a patience and a kit. | Flake has to go down while the base coat is still tacky, miss that window and the chips won't bond right. |
| Broadcasting flakes evenly by hand across a full garage floor is harder than it looks. | Professional broadcast equipment gets even coverage across the whole slab in one pass. |

Flake Flooring FAQs
What's the cost difference between flake epoxy and solid color epoxy?
Flake systems typically run $1,000 to $2,000 more than solid color epoxy for the same square footage, mostly due to the extra broadcast and clear topcoat steps.
How long does flake flooring take to install?
A standard 2-car garage flake job runs about two to three days from prep through final cure, similar to a solid epoxy job with one extra step.
Does flake flooring hide dirt better than solid color?
Yes. The multi-color texture breaks up visual patterns that make dust and light scuffs stand out on a flat, single-color surface.
