So it is water proof? Would it be thick enough for a stall if poured over concrete? It says it’s 1/2" thick when done, can they make it thicker? I would love this in my stalls instead of mats.
JS I’m curious about putting it in stalls too. The website, granted lacking in info (seriously hate videos, I am capable of reading) mentioned that there is a porous and non-porous kind. So wondering if you could put the porous one in a stall, if it’ll drain properly, if manure and bedding will clog the pores, etc. lots and lots of questions, crummy site that doesn’t answer said questions…

I’ve been doing a lot of reading on the site because I want to have a good handle on it when I present it to my better half 
I don’t believe the stall floors would be porous; there would be nowhere for the liquid to go… they recommend the porous flooring for trailers only.
There’s a discussion on another horse forum (can I link to that?) that’s a few years old, and it’s about trailers. If you put the stuff in the trailer, they recommend you don’t put the top sealant over it, so it remains porous. Then you are supposed to drill holes in the trailer floor to let the liquid escape.

Thanks for the reply! I guess I don’t see what difference it would make if you install it in a stall the same way you do on a trailer; without the sealant and with holes drilled. I’m probably over looking something 
I’m not anywhere near putting a permanent floor in my barn but thought it looked like a cool flooring 
A few photos. The colors certainly aren’t as vibrant once the sealant is poured on top. This album should be public - I will leave it that way for a few days and then close it:) If there is a better way to share pics let me know.

Thank you for the pictures, interesting material.
How are you liking that product, now that you may have been using it for a while?
Any more pictures you would like to share?
Any one else that has used it, is it better than regular rubber mats?
I have it in my wash rack. It took about 2-3 hours to install, I chose the “thunder” color. They trowel it in once it is mixed to the consistency that they need. I did have to not use the wash racks for 36 hours before and about 24 hours after. It is VERY slip resistant and is not easy to sweep. I either hose it, or once the major mess is out I use a leaf blower. I have been very happy with it, and I had a corner that came up and they were quick to come and repair it. Warranty I believe is 10 years in writing. I really like it and I LOVE that I do not have to lift or clean between mats!
Thank you!
How would that work for stall floors, will it stand to horses living on it, shod horses?

Bluey, I think it would be fine. IT is VERY grippy, but I think it could work well in stalls. My barn does not have concrete floors or I would have tried it. The wash rack was already concrete and I was not familiar with the product and I did it in one place as a trial. It has a little bit of give, but as I said the most profound thing is the grip. I do not have to worry about a slip. Mine was about 1 to 1 1/4 inch thick, they gave me many choices of colors. I was thinking about doing the floors in my two trailers that do not have WERM floors since I was happy. I will try to get you some pictures of what mine looks like for you. I am in California and I reached out to them via Facebook. They have been very responsive and helpful. It is a pain having the wash rack down for so long, but it must be dry for the process to adhere well. I would not worry about the shoe issue with their warranty, They will come and fix it if there is a problem. I had a warranty issue and they were all over it. All of my horses are shod and are in that rack about 8 per day go through it and we have not had a problem. I know that does not equate to living in the stall though!
Thank you, that helps.
Will have to decide soon if to use mats or something like this.
Not quite there yet, everyone left for harvest.
Maybe when they come back we will decide what to do next.
Sorry to dredge up an older topic, but I’ve been interested in Polylast since they’ve been doing a fairly heavy ad campaign lately and my main barn aisle is slick concrete. (Thanks, old home owners…)
Anyway, I’m a skeptic at heart and at $10/sq ft you better believe I’ll do my homework. There’s a blog post where I found the comment section interesting - https://www.doubledtrailers.com/why-we-dont-recommend-werm-polylast-or-rhino-lining-for-your-horse-trailer-floor/
I wouldn’t install this in my trailer floor for the reasons listed (I’m constantly terrified of my floor breaking, even though I have my trailer checked by professionals annually). BUT in the comments, someone mentions that they do offer repairs for horses that paw. Seems to me that there are better, more durable options that using these types of products IN stalls. Jury is still out on my aisle…
Again I have been very happy.
