Project Spotlight: Concrete Floor Coating for New Shop and Garage in Eagle, Idaho

January 1, 2024

At Spray 'n Coat Painting, we take pride in offering durable, top-notch concrete floor coatings for both residential and commercial spaces. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Jim Escobar, a homeowner in Eagle, Idaho, who was looking for a reliable floor coating solution for his newly built shop and existing garage.

The Project

Our customer Jim was in need of a high-quality concrete floor coating for two specific areas on his property:

A newly built 2000 sq ft shop
A 912 sq ft garage

Both spaces required a coating that could handle daily use and look great for years to come.

Choosing the Right Floor Coating

After discussing several options with his Spray 'n Coat project manager, Jim decided on a full broadcast flake floor in the color Domino for both the shop and garage. This flake system is one of our most popular options, known for its durability and aesthetic appeal. It provides not only a professional finish but also added slip resistance, which is perfect for high-traffic or utility spaces like garages and shops.

Why Jim Chose Spray 'n Coat

Jim was searching for a concrete floor coating that would stand up to the wear and tear of everyday use, while still looking sharp. We talked through the different coating options, and he appreciated that we laid out the pros and cons of each. In the end, he chose the full broadcast flake system for its balance of style and durability.

Jim mentioned that what stood out about working with Spray 'n Coat was our simple process, great craftsmanship, and fair, competitive pricing. He also appreciated that we stayed true to our promised timeline, completing the job on schedule without any delays.

Results

The end result was a stunning Domino flake floor that brought a professional, polished look to both the shop and garage. Jim’s feedback was extremely positive. He felt that we delivered exactly what we promised, providing a seamless experience from start to finish. His newly coated shop and garage floors are now ready to handle whatever he throws at them—whether it's heavy equipment in the shop or vehicles in the garage.

Project Spotlight: Sealing the Deal at the Caldwell Airport Terminal

May 30, 2025

At Spray ’n Coat Painting, we often get called in to finish what others couldn’t quite get right—and that was the case with this 2,000 sq. ft. concrete floor coating project at the Caldwell Airport terminal. The building, now home to a private charter company, needed a durable and clean finish to make the space more welcoming for employees and travelers. Project Background This terminal originally had carpet in several areas, and after it was removed, thick glue residue was left behind across the concrete floors. Our customer had hired another contractor to handle the coating work, but unfortunately, they lacked the necessary equipment and experience for the job. That’s when we stepped in to get things done right. Our Process To give the customer the clean, sealed finish he was hoping for, our crew tackled the job in several key steps: Joint Filler Replacement: We started by removing the old joint filler and refilling the seams. Heavy Grinding & Surface Prep: Using professional grinding equipment, we stripped away all glue residue and opened up the pores of the concrete to ensure a strong bond. Matte Polyurethane Coating: We applied a commercial-grade polyurethane sealer in a matte finish. This not only improved the look of the space but also provided a stain-resistant, slip-resistant surface that can stand up to heavy foot traffic. Why It Matters For a commercial space like this—where first impressions matter and safety is non-negotiable—the right prep and coating system makes all the difference. The finished floor is now sealed, low-maintenance, and ready to take on day-to-day traffic from both staff and customers.

Kitchen Island Cabinet Painting: Creating a Standout Statement with Dried Thyme

Kitchen Island Cabinet Painting: Creating a Standout Statement with Dried Thyme Not every kitchen upgrade requires a full remodel. Sometimes, one bold, well-executed change can make the biggest impact. That was the case with this recent kitchen island makeover, where our customer wanted one thing: to make their island the statement piece of the space. They chose Dried Thyme by Sherwin-Williams—a soft, earthy green that brings both character and calm to a room. We used our cabinet painting process to deliver a durable, factory-grade finish that gave their island a whole new identity. Here’s how it came together—and why cabinet painting is one of the smartest updates you can make in your kitchen. Why the Island? Why Dried Thyme? This homeowner wasn’t trying to overhaul their entire kitchen. Their layout worked well, the surrounding white cabinetry was in great shape, and their countertops already brought a clean, timeless look. But the island felt flat. It blended in too much—and they wanted something with a little more presence. Enter Dried Thyme (SW 6186) . This sage-toned green shifts beautifully with the light throughout the day, creating a cozy yet elevated look. It paired perfectly with their existing white perimeter cabinets, quartz counters, and the updated matte black hardware. Looking for more island color inspiration? Sherwin-Williams has a great visualizer tool for testing colors in real spaces.
