When a homeowner in Addison, Illinois approached Gorilla Floors, they had one clear request:
“I want something that really pops — something that grabs attention the second you walk in.”
They weren’t looking for basic. They wanted a statement floor that would bring a high-end, artistic look to their newly renovated basement. And that’s exactly what we delivered with a custom metallic epoxy system.
Why Metallic Epoxy?
Metallic epoxy isn’t just a coating — it’s a conversation starter. With its flowing patterns, depth, and light-reflective shimmer, it turns any space into a one-of-a-kind work of art. It’s perfect for homeowners who want more than just a functional floor — they want something unforgettable.
We started with mechanical diamond grinding to remove surface imperfections and ensure solid adhesion.
Next, we applied a black base coat to deepen the metallic tones and set the stage for maximum contrast.
We hand-poured a custom metallic blend, swirling the pigments to create a marbled, three-dimensional effect across the floor.
Finally, we sealed everything with a UV-stable, high-gloss polyurethane for long-lasting shine and protection.
The transformation was dramatic.
“This floor completely changed the energy of the space,” said the homeowner.
“Everyone who walks in says ‘wow.’ It’s exactly what I envisioned.”
