Liquid Art coating systems involve the application of a standard or moisture-mitigating primer coat, a 3-component cementitious color coat, followed by two “metallic” coats into which denatured alcohol is sprayed. Media may or may not be broadcast into the second metallic coat and a clear coat is subsequently applied. The metallic coating technique assures a one-of-a-kind finish that has revolutionized the floor coating industry. Floors finished with this coating system are striking and inimitable, possessing a “glass-like” quality.
