Do you have any contcat info on the guy in Detroit? I live in Windsor, very short drive for me.

Those random "spots/dots" on your expoxy floor, are they part of the epoxy? Can you pick and choose the colour?

Out of curiosity and because I'll need to redo my garage floor at some point, what is the square footage you are re-doing?

I believe it is approx 19' by 19', a standard 2 car regular depth garage.

Sorry for the late respond was away for a week and just got back late last night, please check your PM

Those are color chips that you sprinkle on the epoxy right after you apply (or a helper to sprinkle on).

You can find more info from this forum:

You need a top coat (clear coat) for UV protection especially when you add color chips.

Great....I'll PM you when the weather warms up, I'm located 9th line #7

I'm looking at a 2000 sq/ft shop and in preparation of a budget checked out a couple of options. First was a commercial outfit who can polish and seal or epoxy. The polish and seal is almost $6gs, the epoxy almost $4gs'. Then I found this DIY at $835 US.

19x19... man I'm jealous!!!!

I just (7 months) build myself a tiny garage 1 car + 1 bike, got another car in dusty condo parking and another on the street.

I ended up going with epoxy as well (but skipped the flakes).
However just a heads-up, it's not possible to get the epoxy tinted to a specific color (I wanted to match the darkish-grey exterior of my house, no go).

Don't know what kind of doors you've got now but if you're going with an overhaul of your garage ya might want to consider changing your garage doors for aluminum and glass, I absolutely love mine!

Cheers,

Sure, we are just minutes away (I'm in Greensborough)!

No problem. Thanks for the answer!

I'd consider 2 things even though you may not use them right away.
1. install the plastic pipes for radiant floor heating and cap them for now. you can do this yourself to save lots of cash. its cheap and easy. Pipe is not expensive. I wish I had done this when I poured my garage.
2. indent a portion to fit a scissor lift in the future.

i'd think one of the main issues would be to avoid water drainage into the sunken garage.

just as a benchmark, the Ancaster zoning bylaw says the floor elevation of a private garage has to be at least 12 inches above the center line of the street adjacent to the garage.

This is what I'll be doing to mine hopefully this summer. I am a distributor for a few hi-performance coating systems and can tell you this stuff is one of the best I've seen. They are in eastern canada and should have a distributors there. They are very helpful over the phone just to get some info. Good luck.
