I agree with @1Kona_Venom - You do not want light-colored floors in your garage. I went with a white ceiling, to make it brighter, but the walls and floor are darker to hide dust/dirt. If you're serious about reducing temps, confirm your door, walls, and ceiling are properly insulated. Adding an exhaust fan might not be a bad idea, but to be effective, you'll have to ensure it can pull cooler air in from somewhere.
Nice! I'm also happy with my Direct-Lift Pro Park 8S - ALI-certified, 110V operation, no special requirements (e.g., compressed air) to release the locks, and casters, jack tray and drip trays included. I added a Pro Jack 3500 to permit tire/wheel/suspension work.
What do you mean getting low?
That floor looks really good, and looks durable. Do you have to use knee pads when kneeling on it. Looks like it's definitely not a smooth surface. I like it, though.
No knee pads needed.the floor looks fantastic!
Pretty much everything he said. It’s the shit. So happy I did it.My wife says her knees feel fine after being on the garage floor.
I prefer the floor to be slightly rough, and the chips are very grippy.
I had a guy come and hook me up. I paid for it.
I had worked at lowes for 18 months saw plenty of customers pissed off after trying to do it themselves.
1. Diamond Grind the Floor (acid etch is not as good, pita)
2. Clean the floor with water; air dry
3. Apply liquid rubber membrane to seal the floor
4. Deliver chip mixture using a drop spreader (like a Scotts), back and forth
5. Rake loose chips. This also removes any sharp edges.
6. Apply 1 coat of clear polyurethane. 2 coats if you want real glossy.
Cost: $1100.00 (to watch and drink beer)
I dropped a 3/4" punch on purpose from on top of my 6' ladder. It did not break the flooring.
I walk across the floor barefoot periodically and it feels good! Honestly.
Rolled my tool box across the floor 4 hours after the install. Parked the car back in the garage at the 8 hour mark. Cures fast!
@03cobra#694 has the same flooring. He may chime in.
Here is my thread I NEED to update it because its way far along now and pretty much done. Just go to page 2

It's probably much smooth than it looks in the photo.
Ah, I didn't know your floor is the same as Brad's. I read through his thread and saw how awesome it looked when it was finished. As rugged as it is good looking.My wife says her knees feel fine after being on the garage floor.

Pete, $1100 for that floor is a great price. I have a regular 2-bay garage and was quoted from two different installers at around $2500 for epoxy.My wife says her knees feel fine after being on the garage floor.
