Default Garage floor coatings

I would like to do something with my garage floor like a paint or??? It is about 600 square feet of concrete floor. I poured the slab about seven years ago and never did anything with it. There are a lot of oil stains as well as a few areas were moisture is coming through. I know I have to acid ech it as well as using TSP to clean it but, once I have done all that I need a good, no make that a GREAT product to use on this floor. I only want to do this once and I want it to look like a new car dealers service bay

Brian has done his. My mom did hers too. I will ask my mom what she used. I think both her and Brian both used the grey stuff you sprinkle the little dots onto to make it look pretty. Both of them turned out looking awesome.

PM Scorpion and ask him

I used the Rustoleum (sp) garage floor kit from Home Depot 1.5 year ago. Its epoxy paint already mixed and it worked great. All the epoxy paint kits are good the IMPORTANT part is cleaning the floor correctly first! I drag a 2 ton floor jack on it all the time and not so much as a scratch.

also this link...Look for the floor paint attachment. It'll give you a good understanding of the process required to complete the job even if you don't use there stuff.

This is what a friend used, came out great: http://www.epoxy-coat.com/

The prep can be a pain depending on if your garage surface is sealed or not.

Ditto, I love the way mine turned out. On my two car it took me and the wife most of the day to clean and paint. Then you have to wait like 3 days to drive a car on it. The S was screaming at me for keeping her outside that long
