What's the latest on garage floors??
 
It's time to paint the new floor. Lift is in. My neighbor wants to go in together and get that black & white snap together tile deal. Seems to me it boils down to Rustoleum Epoxy (Lowes has alot of different colors, prep. etc.), Groits or U-Coat-It. Looks like U-Coat-It is the best but may be overpriced. Anybody try the Rustoleum or something else that works well? BTW - the floor is six months old now.

My brother-in-law just finished his garage. He used medium gray POR-15 on the floor. Came out great! You know that stuffs never coming off. I think I will do the same.

How was it prepped, According to the instructions you 1st have to wash it down with degreaser, then a coat of etching primer, then a coat of sealer primer, then the paint...can you skip a step or two here?

I am thinking that they just washed the floor and dried it well before coating. They decided it would make a great floor coating when my nephew spilled some while using it on his car. They tried everything to get it off. Then the light bulb went on. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

I'll double check that prep info for ya.
