El Mirage has plenty of pre-2010 housing stock, and a lot of those garage and patio slabs show their age through staining, patchy discoloration, or an uneven surface look. A solid-color coating alone won't hide that well. Flake does.
El Mirage Epoxy Pros broadcasts flake into a pigmented base coat to cover those flaws while adding texture and extra durability. It's a cosmetic fix and a functional one at the same time.

How Our Decorative Flake Flooring Process Works
Step 1Design Consultation
Color and flake pattern options are reviewed to match the desired look.
Step 2Surface Preparation
The concrete is ground and cleaned to ensure proper coating adhesion.
Step 3Base Coat Application
A pigmented base coat is applied as the foundation for the flake layer.
Step 4Flake Broadcast
Decorative flakes are broadcast by hand or machine across the wet coating.
Step 5Scrape & Smooth
Excess flakes are scraped away to create a smooth, even surface texture.
Step 6Clear Topcoat Seal
A clear protective topcoat locks in the flakes and adds durability.

A clear finish adds gloss and protects the decorative flake layer from UV fade.
Metallic Flake Accent
Metallic flakes add shimmer and depth to the decorative flooring pattern.

Decorative Flake Flooring FAQs
Can flake be applied over an old oil-stained garage floor?
After degreasing and grinding. The flake blend actually helps mask residual discoloration that doesn't fully lift during cleaning.
How long does flake flooring last before it peels?
With proper prep and a sealed topcoat, flake floors typically hold up for years. Failures almost always come from skipped grinding, not the flake itself.
How much more does flake cost compared to solid-color epoxy?
Flake adds a broadcast and scrape step plus extra topcoat material, usually a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars more depending on square footage.
Does flake hide cracks or just stains?
It helps mask stains and surface imperfections. Active structural cracks still need repair before coating, flake or not.
