No but it was a big Co. The local guys came and ground the floor with a diamond grinder, did the base coat, added the flakes and then the clear coat.

I did it before my in laws came back north for the summer - all the big stuff went into their garage, and then I put most everything else on the patio with a couple of big tarps over the whole mess - which my neighbors appreciated I'm sure. Start to finish was about a week, so not too long.

I did the same thing in my garage as Jake did above with the color flakes and epoxy.
Its industrial use flooring. I had this in my old garage I built in 2006. Never any issues.
They can run it up the wall 6 inches which acts as a base.

Sikafloor was the brand. Same as Jakes.

Cost installed for me was around $4/sq ft. I also have a 60x72 garage. The grout lines also added to the cost.

The peeling etc is why I dyed my slab. Even though I cleared it when it flakes or stains you can’t tell.
In my older barn As mentioned I use race deck. Put down some black felt to keep the noise down and just snap that stuff in place awesome I’ll attach a picture

Can't even buy the material in my area for $4/SF - that is a deal!

Heres some pics. I havent had an issue with the newer stuff as far as tires making marks or peeling. It was afresh concrete floor and they came in and bead blasted it with a machine. I have oil, trans fluid gas spilled and never an issue.
They did also put some sand in it to make it less slippery. If you go straight epoxy, you will end up on your back!!

Damn, you guys have some insane garages.
I thought my 6-car garage in the city was a big deal....
