Overview
What Is Epoxy Flake Flooring?
Epoxy flake flooring involves applying resin coatings with vinyl flakes broadcast into the surface before sealing with a clear topcoat. It creates a seamless, textured finish, and suits homes, showrooms and retail, workshops, studios and offices.
Surface Prep and Priming
The concrete surface is mechanically prepared and primed to ensure proper adhesion. This process creates the ideal foundation for the epoxy and decorative flake system.
Base Coat
A coloured epoxy base coat is applied evenly across the surface. This layer provides the foundation that supports the decorative flake application.
Flake Chips
Decorative vinyl flakes are broadcast across the epoxy surface to create texture, colour variation and visual depth. This stage enhances both appearance and slip resistance.
Seal and Protect
A durable protective topcoat is applied to lock in the flakes and provide long-lasting protection against wear, moisture and staining.
finish options
We offer a range of epoxy flake flooring options to suit residential and commercial spaces, with expert advice to help you choose the right solution.

Steve and his team at GrindnShine are approachable, friendly and all round good eggs.
Whilst flat out busy (always a good sign) they still managed to fit me in, with realistic timescales (which they stuck to) and kept me up to date with progress.
The finish and colour are amazing and exactly as advised. One completely happy customer here who will be returning and recommending to anyone who needs work doing. Thanks again guys, legends!

The team at Grind n Shine are absolute legends, friendly, proactive, and fun.
Over the past year, I’d taken my car to several other paint shops that never seemed to have the time for me or just messed me about.
One day I spotted Grind n Shine from the road, dropped in on a whim, and Steve had my bumper looking better than ever in no time at all. He even took the initiative to walk me through fitting the bumper in detail, even though I was doing that part myself, a genuine care for his customers. Even the way they’ve set up and decorated the workshop reflects the pride they take in what they do. Couldn’t ask for better service and couldn’t recommend them enough.

Steve and the team at Grind & Shine
Steve and the team at Grind & Shine were brilliant after my car was damaged in a pub car park. Not the biggest job,but they gave me a quote to give to the person responsible, then were quick and efficient in getting the job done. Definitely would recommend.

Steve did an immaculate repair on a huge scrape on the side of my Nissan Juke. I really appreciated his help, his calm and the huge depth of experience that he brought to the situation – fairly priced too. Thank you Steve,Anne and the Grind and Shine team, you’re fabulous.
