    • Concrete must be cleaned, repaired, and prepped before epoxy application.

    • Grinding and leveling increase costs but ensure a smooth, lasting finish.

    3. Thickness of Application

    • Thin film coatings are cheaper but less durable.

    • Thicker coatings (1-9mm) last longer but cost more.

    4. Size of the Area
