First pick the primary (background color). This color should be at least 40 to 50% of you total mix. The background color is picked from this color chart:

Three easy steps of application
The "sandwich" system
Epoxy.com Seamless Chip Flake Flooring System is easier to use than most people think. This ease of use also automatically means that work can be done more quickly.
Saving time and money, while increasing quality!
Step 1: A
layer of flooring resin is applied to a suitable substrate.
Step 2: The application of the color chips can be done by broadcasting the floor to saturation (refusal)
Step 3: The transparent top coat, which is applied in one or more layers, determines the final thickness.
As dazzling as the visual effect is, there is more to making a product successful. There are many factors contributing to the success of Epoxy.com Chip Flooring.
Ease of Application
Many floor companies have difficulty finding good floor layers. The
introduction of an
easy-to-install product will be appreciated by everyone. The Chip
Flooring precludes processing mistakes. It is "fool-proof", because an
excess of chips are spread on the still wet floor paint. The extra chips
are simply swept up after the floor has dried and can be reused. Taping
off is unnecessary. The chips only adhere to the places where the
flooring resin has been applied. This inherent simplicity is also the
basis for the do-it-yourself product.
Little Preparation
The standard preparation of a floor is necessary when using the Chip Flooring System. The chips cover small cracks and holes, because of the light structure and multi-color effect of the final result. Uneven spots are hardly noticeable.
Cove Base
An integral cove base can be
installed to turn your room into a virtual "bathtub".
Easy to Disinfect
The highest requirements apply, especially to floors with heavy traffic. The Chip Flooring System offers a finish which is very easy to keep disinfected. The seamless and sealed surface can be cleaned in every possible way. Even with a high pressure water spray. The seamless sealed surface prevents the entry of dirt and bacteria. We can even add an optional anti-microbial to your Chip Flooring.
Anti-skid
A floor made of Epoxy.com Flooring Chips is slightly textured and it is this texture that gives the floor good anti-skid qualities. This is especially important for areas where the floor gets wet such as entry ways, and pool sides.
Durable and Reparability
The use of Epoxy.com� Product #315 provides a durability which can compete with similar types of decorative floors, with a much higher level of durability and reparability. Should the floor show scuffs after intensive use, this can be quickly solved by applying another layer of the transparent top coat. The floor looks new again after just one application.
Color-Fast
Only the best color-fast pigments are used to produce color chips. Even under exposure to strong ultraviolet light, hardly any fading occurs. Used with Epoxy.com� Product #315 or other flooring resin that does not fade, the color chips create a strong, color-fast system.
Endless Choice of Colors and Effects
