After doing a lot of talking with the various companies that apply the epoxy or acrylic coatings the ones I talked with said it has to be ground to ensure a positive bond. In my sub there were at least 5 garages coated over the years, the three that were washed with acid and coated failed somewhere in the garage. The ones ground were like the day installed, some as long as 12 years. So I just had mine done, garage and driveway, and yes they ground it all to a pure white looking surface. Cleaned with a solution then applied a primer. Primer dried 2-3 hours then two coats of color back to back and then as the last coat was being applied the other worker tossed the chips to completly cover the color coat. They returned two days later and scrapped off the extra chips, then coated with a uv barrier clear. Looks fantastic, it is a commercial coating.
