Outback Concrete Coatings is now serving the greater Indianapolis metro area with The Armor Core System™, a five-layer polyurea garage floor coating that goes down in a single day, handles everything Indiana weather throws at it, and is backed by a lifetime warranty we’ve never had to apologize for. If you’ve been looking for a garage floor coating contractor in Indianapolis that uses real polyurea, does it right, and stands behind the work unconditionally, you’ve found us.
Explore our professionally curated flake combinations and discover the look that fits your home.
When the Webb family purchased Outback Concrete Coatings, they saw an opportunity to elevate what homeowners and businesses should expect from a concrete coating company. Their vision was simple: combine superior products, refined installation standards, clear communication, and a level of accountability rarely seen in the industry.
Today, that vision defines the Outback experience. From garages and basements to patios, pool decks, and commercial floors, every project is built around craftsmanship, durability, and a finished look worthy of the home or business it protects.
Preparation, structure, and process determine how a floor performs over time.
The Armor Core System™ is designed to control each of these variables, creating a surface built for long-term durability, adhesion, and consistency.
A structured system where every layer serves a defined purpose from preparation through final finish.
Walk on it tomorrow. Our rapid-cure system means zero downtime.
Hundreds of happy homeowners across Allen County and beyond.
We stand behind every job with our industry-leading lifetime warranty.
A structured five-layer system designed to prepare, protect, and perform.
Each layer serves a defined purpose. Together, they create a surface built to hold up under real-world conditions.
Indianapolis averages more than 20 freeze-thaw cycles every winter. Your garage slab expands in July heat and contracts hard in January cold, and it does that every single year. Standard epoxy is a rigid coating that bonds to the surface but doesn’t flex with it. As the concrete moves, epoxy cracks at the bond line. The peeling starts. You’ve seen it in someone’s garage, that bubbling, flaking floor that looked sharp when it was done and started failing before the warranty expired.
That’s not a bad contractor. That’s the wrong product.
Polyurea is a flexible polymer that moves with the concrete instead of fighting it. It cures in hours instead of days. It resists hot tire transfer, road salt, chemical spills, and UV exposure without breaking down. And when it’s installed correctly as part of a five-layer system with proper surface preparation and moisture mitigation, it holds up for the life of the slab.
That’s The Armor Core System™. And it’s the only system we install.
The biggest objection we hear from Indianapolis homeowners is that they can’t afford to have their garage out of commission for days. That’s an epoxy objection — epoxy requires 24 to 72 hours of cure time before you can walk on it, and longer before it handles vehicle traffic.
Polyurea cures in hours. We arrive in the morning, complete all five layers, and you’re walking on the finished floor that same evening. Drive on it the next morning. One day of scheduling disruption — and the floor is done for life.
Attached Garages
The most common project we install across the Indianapolis metro — two and three-car attached garages where the floor takes daily road salt, tire wear, and everything that comes in off the driveway. The Armor Core System™ seals the surface completely and holds up to decades of regular use.
Detached Garages and Workshops
Workshop floors, hobby garages, and detached spaces that double as working areas. The chemical resistance and slip-resistant topcoat make these spaces safer and more functional without changing how you use them.
Oversized and Custom Garages
Multi-car garages, RV bays, collector car garages — large-format spaces where the floor is part of the presentation. Custom flake color combinations are available to match the vision for the space.
