hey thanks for the tip . i was just gonna say" looks good . I have racedeck tiles in my garage and they really cleaned up the look from the previous which was bare concrete ." by the way , anyone thinking about doing blk/wht checkerboard , the white ones are a pain in the @ss to keep looking good . they get dirty very easy .

new paint

Just thought I would post a few pics. I recently added some Gladiator storage units, table, etc and painted the floor with epoxy. I have no real belief that it will last any longer than the regular paint I have put down every 3 years or so, but I liked the look anyway.

Does the epoxy go right on the floor?

Do you need to treat the floor with anything?

The floor was already quite clean, with a hard paint. We simply wiped it down with a mop/water
and applied. Had it been bare concrete, or for a more heavily used space, we might have put acid down first.

I am going to go out onto a limb and guess that you guys do not have 5 kids. I have tried to organize my garage, and keep it clean, but there are 3 cars, 7 bikes, and all manner of scooters, soccer *****, snow sleds, and gardening equipment.

Maybe I need some curtains I can pull across all the stuff.
