Polyaspartic vs. Epoxy: Which Garage Floor Coating Lasts Longer?

When it comes to protecting your garage floor, two popular choices dominate the market: epoxy and polyaspartic coatings. Both offer benefits, but they perform very differently over time. When debating polyaspartic vs. epoxy, it’s important to consider many factors. 

epoxy coatings

  • Cost-effective upfront
  • Good chemical resistance
  • Popular for DIY installations
  • Downsides: long cure time, prone to yellowing, brittle in freeze-thaw cycles

polyaspartic coatings

  • Extremely durable and flexible, resisting cracks and chips
  • UV stable—won’t yellow or fade in sunlight
  • Cures in one day, minimizing downtime
  • Withstands Midwest winters and road salt better than epoxy

which lasts longer?

Epoxy typically lasts 5–10 years before showing wear, while polyaspartic floors can last 15–20+ years with minimal maintenance.

“Our garage was done with 100% polyaspartic flake system yesterday. I was very impressed with the whole process. The men were very nice and highly professional. I could ask questions and I was very satisfied with their response. Hoping to enjoy the new garage floor soon.“

“Industrious Garage did an amazing job. Firstly, I was impressed with Jess and Stephani when I originally called for quotes and to learn about the process; they were very helpful and informative. Everyone I worked with along the way was professional and I highly recommend this company. The floor looks great and they even came in less than their original quote!!”
