How to Clean and Maintain Epoxy Flake Floors

An epoxy flake floor is one of the easier surfaces to maintain, but the wrong cleaner or the wrong approach can dull or damage it over time. Here's how to keep a flake floor looking good and performing for years.

Daily and Weekly Care

Sweep or dust-mop regularly to remove grit that can wear the topcoat. Damp-mop with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Most household dirt comes up easily because the surface is seamless and non-porous — there's no grout line or rough concrete to trap it.

What to Avoid

Avoid harsh degreasers, acidic cleaners, and abrasive pads or powders — they can dull the topcoat over time. Don't use a pressure washer on residential flake floors, and avoid dragging heavy, sharp objects that can gouge the surface. Clean spills promptly so nothing sits and stains.

Tire Marks and Scuffs

Hot tires can leave marks on a coating, especially when it's new. Clean tire marks promptly with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner. Most scuffs lift off a properly cured topcoat without damage.

When to Call a Professional

If the topcoat is wearing thin, losing gloss, or showing wear in high-traffic areas, a professional recoat can restore it. For stubborn stains or damage, reach out — we can advise on whether a recoat or a repair is the right move.
