Default Garage Flooring?

I just recently purchased a home and I would like to have the garage floor epoxied. I was wondering if you guys had any advice or any product recommendations before I got started. If possible could you also post pictures of your garage/shop floor? Thanks in advance

I went with a professional Expoy coated floor. Spent the money to have someone come out and prep it and do the entire job.

Very happy

The Garage is 800 Square feet - I think it was around 3000

30 x 30. Used the Rustoleum Garage Floor kit (gray) without the sprinkles. It was a new (3 yrs old) untreated floor with no grease or oil stains. Acid etched and let it dry for 3 days. I put a plastic floor mat on the floor and checked it every day. Once the moisture under it was gone - I painted. Mine is currently one coat - and once I get my project done - I plan to do another. Most recommend 2 coats to start with.

Marty, That does look awesome man ! Did you get the plasma hung up ?

Also, check either this forum - or the General forum. There was another thread with pics and product details for this topic.
