What is the Mirage product? Mirage is a high-build epoxy system that incorporates fine metallic elements, various pigments and marbelizing activators. Where is Mirage to be used? The Mirage product can be used for flooring whether coating a concrete floor or a plywood substrate. Mirage can also be used for counter top surfaces over concrete, wood, formica or virtually any other substrate. Creative contractors can also pour Mirage and stand it up vertically for accent pieces on fireplaces, bar cabinets and other areas. Can Mirage be used on exterior surfaces? No, this is strictly an interior surface coating. What is the maintenance for this product? This epoxy product does not scratch like most epoxies do. Utilizing a scratch resistant compound also helps to protect the surface as well as erase scratches if they do occur. Unless an area has been subjected to extended or harsh use, resealing the surface is not necessary. How much does this product cost? The pricing is set by your local installer. Generally speaking though, the price for flooring is equivalent to quarried stone tile or for counter tops, the price is similar to inexpensive granite or sold surface tops like Zodiac or Onyx. Can you do undermount sinks with this product? Yes, edging the counter top for undermount sinks is possible. Why do some of your pictures of Mirage on counter tops have tile or some other product around the edges? Since this product is definitely different than the customary counter top surface, we sometimes add 1" square glass tiles, metal or wood to the edge of the counter top as an additional accent. However, the Mirage product can be used to coat the vertical edge of counter tops as well. Can you make a floor seamless with this product? In most cases yes. We can traverse smaller cracks in floors as well as saw-cut expansion joints. Tooled expansion joints or large cracks can be coated as well. Your installer cannot guarantee that cracks or expansion joints will never reappear though. We take ever precaution to prevent this although if the concrete substrate is moving significantly due to poor soil compaction or hydrostatic issues, nothing can prevent this. |
