Metallic & Artisan.
High-gloss metallic pours, custom decorative work, and full artisan systems from Epoxy Guys, built for showrooms, dealerships, retail floors, designer interiors, and any space where the floor itself needs to be the room.
Metallic and artisan floors are where epoxy stops being a coating and starts being a finished material. Every install Epoxy Guys run here is custom, color-matched on-site to your sample or vehicle, hand-troweled or pour-worked depending on the effect, and finished with a high-gloss UV-stable topcoat. The result is a floor with depth, movement, and reflectivity that earns the kind of attention you usually pay an artist for.
Three families of work live here. Metallic pours are multi-pigment epoxy poured wet-on-wet, worked with brushes and air, and sealed under polyaspartic. The pigments separate and swirl during cure, creating one-of-a-kind movement no two floors share. Polished concrete is the bare slab brought to mirror finish through progressive diamond polishing, optionally dyed and densified to color. Artisan systems are everything else, decorative quartz aggregates, hand-troweled cement microtoppings, custom embedded materials, scored patterns, vehicle-paint matches, brand-color floors.
We install metallic and artisan work in residential foyers, custom garages, retail showrooms, dealerships, restaurants, boutiques, and hospitality interiors across Southwest Florida. Every project includes a design consultation, physical sample mockup before install, and the same lifetime adhesion warranty as our flagship Signature system.

The system, layer by layer.
Three approaches. Different chemistry, different price tier, different finished look.
Metallic Pours
Multi-pigment epoxy poured and worked while wet. The pigments separate during cure, creating swirled, marbled, river-like movement. Sealed under high-gloss UV-stable polyaspartic.
Polished Concrete
Bare slab densified, ground through progressive diamond grits to mirror finish. Optionally dyed or stained for color. The most architectural option, the floor reads as concrete, not as a coating.
Full Artisan
Hand-troweled microtoppings, decorative aggregates, vehicle-paint-match floors, brand-color showroom installs, custom embedded materials (logos, score lines, mosaic). Custom by definition.
Where this system fits.
Where decorative work earns its premium.
Showrooms & Dealerships
Automotive showrooms, marine dealers, motorcycle and exotic dealerships. The floor is part of the merchandising.
Retail & Boutique
Brand-color floors, high-gloss reflective surfaces, custom artisan finishes that distinguish the space.
Hospitality
Restaurants, hotels, event venues. Polished concrete and metallic floors that survive heavy daily traffic while looking finished.
High-End Residential
Foyers, kitchens, great rooms, dedicated workshop and gym spaces in custom homes. Metallic floors that complement custom millwork.
Custom & Collector Garages
Where the Signature flake system isn’t the look. Metallic or polished concrete for collectors who want gallery, not garage.
Showpiece Interiors
Anywhere the floor needs to be photographed.
How an install runs.
Longer than flake garages. The trade-off for one-of-a-kind finished work.
Design consultation
On-site visit. We bring physical sample boards. We agree on pigments, base color, accent colors, and intended movement. Sketch in writing.
Mechanical prep
Diamond grind to CSP-2 or higher depending on finish. Polished concrete prep is more aggressive than coating prep.
Base coat
100% solids epoxy base. Pigmented to your selected ground color. Bonded into the slab.
Decorative pour or polish
Metallic: multi-pigment wet-on-wet pour, worked with brushes and air. Polish: progressive diamond grits to selected finish level.
Topcoat
UV-stable polyaspartic for metallic. Densifier and sealer for polished concrete.
Cure & walkthrough
Foot traffic at 24 hours. Furniture and vehicles after full cure. Walkthrough and warranty handover.

Built into the slab, not laid on top of it. Every one of these installs runs through the same Epoxy Guys prep sequence we have used since 2012.
