List the real exposures
The installer needs to know which chemicals, equipment, loads, heat sources, and work practices the floor will encounter.
Texture affects rolling equipment
Aggressive traction can interfere with stools, cabinets, carts, and creepers. Map work zones before selecting one uniform finish.
Damage expectations matter
No decorative coating is immune to gouging, hot metal, point loads, or every chemical. Ask how localized repairs are handled.
The material label is not the complete proposal.
Compare surface preparation, repairs, actual product names, layer sequence, coverage, texture, cure schedule, exclusions, and warranty. A low square-foot figure without those details is difficult to evaluate.
