I am planning on using the rustoleum product to :tup: I have seen a friends dads garage that he use it on and it looks great almost 5 years later

Speaking of garages, my buddy did his floor in those foam locking puzzle pieces. But the gym grade stuff. Its pretty sweet working on his car, nice and soft. Knees don't hurt when you are done. Although, it will be interesting to see what happens to it when it get oil or something on it.

i use to use those foam locking tiles next to my workbench. they are comfy to stand on for sure.

but not sure if putting your car on it for prolonged period (winter hibernation) would deform it permanently? :confused:

I haven't figured out the cost yet but the racedeck option looks pretty nice!

I don't think I'm going to be able to get all the stains off my garage floor and with this it wont matter. That and it looks awesome!


you have to request quotes so it most likely pretty expensive...

Yeah, or even overnight

Hey Alex, can you snap us some pics???

yah, racedeck for my small 2.5car garage came out about $1800 which i thought was a pretty good deal. :)

the only thing holding me back is im not sure how smoothly i can get my hydraulic jack under the car to raise it from time to time in tight space. i dont want the tile patterns getting into the way of the rollers on the jacks.

and my concrete is still pretty clean.

I would look into the stuff they put on airplane hangers, its white and everything cleans off of it oil and all, dont know the name of the sutff tho,

I'd assume it's close to the same thing as the epoxy the OP wants to try, just more white?
The only one I have been in was at an Army base, and I wasn't paying much attention to the floor because I was shítting myself at the size of the V22's and other helicopters

so to give a quick update

i choose Garages, Basements, Indoor & Residential | Armor Poxy

think i gotta get a heater to help it dry..... its a little cold

Sure thing. Hes getting back from deployment in late march. Ill snap some next time im over his place

Make sure you double check the directions. All the products when I originally looked into this wanted to be applied at an ambient temperature >= 50 F so I put the project off till the spring time. Hate to see you do all that work just to have it lift or peel.

Looks like most of their products are okay down to 40F :tup:

"Note: ArmorClad should be applied between 50-90 def F and when relative humidity is 80% or less. If cooler, add portable heaters to area to keep air temperatures higher. It should be stored in a dry area at temperatures between 50-95 deg F. Material must be above 60 deg F for installation. Install in areas with proper ventilation. Wear safety glasses, protective clothing and rubber gloves for the duration of preparation and application of ArmorClad."

so good to make me reread the direction, but i should be fine with a couple extra heaters........... famous lost words:ughdance:

GLWS!

(Good Luck With Sealing) :tup:

I used UCoat It Epoxy Floor Coating
Cost about 900 for my 3.5 car garage, but I did it 11 years ago, and it still looks great, despite having my powdercoating shop in the garage for the first 5 years. There are a few stained areas, but nothing that a regular car parking garage should see.
