FAB
“Independent but I’m living major, middle finger up to you haters”
Mistah FAB’s breakout album, 2005’s Son of a Pimp, established the North Oakland emcee as a rising star and a major factor in a resurgent Bay Area rap scene. A decade later — older, wiser, and more resilient — FAB returned with Son of A Pimp 2, a no-holds-barred, 21-track extravaganza he considers the truest representation of his artistic talent to date. The list of features raised eyebrows: Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Snoop Dogg, Too $hort, E-40, 2 Chainz, Tech N9ne, Jadakiss, Lupe Fiasco, and more.
Beyond music, FAB found success as a ghostwriter — penning platinum hits like B.O.B.’s “Headband” and Chris Brown’s “Loyal.” He launched his own clothing company, Dope Era. He was honored by the city of Oakland for his humanitarian efforts — turkey giveaways, backpack drives, and community fundraisers — with the naming of February 8 as “Mistah FAB Day.”
“My evolution as an artist is basically expanding and expounding on where I was at. 10 years is a long time, a person goes through a lot,” he explains. Through losing his mother to cancer, his brother’s incarceration, and the dissolution of his major-label deal, FAB persevered. The birth of his daughter transformed “Fabby Davis Jr.” into a grown man with purpose.
Gold Coast Resin is proud to collaborate with Mistah FAB — an Oakland legend whose story is about resilience, community, and making something extraordinary out of nothing. That’s a philosophy we share every time we pour a floor.
GOLD COAST
A collaboration floor is not just a surface — it is a brand asset that works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in every photo and every video.
Brand Color Matching
Johnny matches epoxy colors precisely to your brand palette. Pantone references, hex codes, physical samples — whatever it takes to ensure your floor is an exact extension of your visual identity across every channel.
Custom Artistic Design
Logos, patterns, geometric borders, color zones, metallic effects — Gold Coast Resin translates your brand language into a floor design that feels intentional, premium, and unmistakably yours.
Social Media Ready
Collaboration floors are designed to photograph and film beautifully. Reflective metallic finishes, bold color contrasts, and clean sight lines create a built-in backdrop for content that performs on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
Commercial Durability
Every collaboration floor is built on the same industrial-grade epoxy and polyaspartic systems that Gold Coast Resin uses for warehouses and garages. Beauty that withstands heavy foot traffic, dropped equipment, and daily commercial use.
SPECIAL
A standard flooring contractor sees a floor as square footage to cover. Gold Coast Resin sees a collaboration floor as a brand touchpoint that shapes how people experience your business. When a customer walks into a barbershop, a restaurant, or a retail space and looks down at a floor that clearly took thought, artistry, and intention — that floor changes their perception of the entire brand. It communicates quality before a single word is spoken.
Johnny approaches every collaboration project by first understanding the brand itself. What are the colors? What is the energy? Who is the audience? How will the space be photographed and filmed? These questions drive the design process because a collaboration floor must work in person and on screen. The metallic effects, the color transitions, the reflective qualities — all of these are calibrated to look stunning from every angle, under every lighting condition, and through every camera lens.
The businesses that choose Gold Coast Resin for collaborations understand that their floor is permanent content. Every photo taken inside the space features the floor. Every video filmed in the room shows the floor. Every customer who walks through the door experiences the floor before they experience anything else. That is the power of a collaboration floor — it works for your brand around the clock, without maintenance, without updates, without a subscription fee.
Gold Coast Resin has collaborated with barbershops, beauty academies, restaurants, retail stores, and creative studios across California. Whether your brand is established with millions of followers or you are opening your first location and want to start strong, Johnny will work with you to design a floor that becomes part of your brand story.

The Vic Blends Academy
When Vic Blends — one of the most recognized names in barbering and content creation with millions of followers across social media — decided to open the Vic Blends Academy, the floor had to be more than functional. It had to be iconic. The academy is where the next generation of barbers trains, where content is filmed, and where the Vic Blends brand lives in physical space.
Gold Coast Resin was brought in to create a custom epoxy floor that would match the energy, ambition, and visual identity of the Vic Blends brand. Johnny Mendoza worked directly with the team to develop a floor design that incorporated brand colors, metallic effects, and custom artistic elements that make the academy floor instantly recognizable in every photo and video filmed inside the space. The result is a floor that does not just support the brand — it amplifies it.
Never Scared Lifestyle
At Never Scared Lifestyle, they believe in embracing fear — not as a hindrance, but as a catalyst for growth. Their mission is to inspire and empower individuals to step out of their comfort zones, conquer their fears, and live life to the fullest.
Gold Coast Resin partnered with Never Scared Lifestyle to create a floor that embodies that same fearless energy. The result is a bold, custom epoxy installation that captures the brand’s intensity and serves as the foundation — literally — for everything they build. When your brand is about pushing limits, your space has to match that energy from the ground up.
DopeBoyz Apparel
DopeBoyz is a premium apparel shop based out of Hollister, California. They carry a range of premium clothing brands such as Bape, Essentials, New Era, Cookies, Levi’s and Pro Club apparel. Whether you need hoodies, t-shirts, jeans or hats — they got them all.
Gold Coast Resin poured a custom floor for DopeBoyz that matches the energy of the brands on the racks. When your shop carries premium, the space has to feel premium from the ground up. The floor sets the tone the moment customers walk in.
212 Motorhaus
