Can anyone suggest a product to use on garage floor?
Trying to protect the concrete from the oil and other liquids I will most likely spill.. :roll:

Thanks a bunch!

Home Depot has this special epoxy paint.
They will mix it for you at any crazy color you like.
I used it for my canoe too. The color is the Ocean Green.
But it is too cold now for garage floor and canoe.

Thanks, would you say it's tough enough for the extreme car guy who does a lot of wrenching on his cars (trolley jacks, safety stands etc. etc)?

I am looking for the best stuff out there to protect the floor from me.. :shock:

Cheers

Sorry, I don’t have this kind of the personal experience with torturing of the garage floor. My garage is sort of the outdoor rental. Five bicycles, four sets of downhill and X-country skis, little canoe, camping crap and lots of fishing gear.

Be careful of what you're buying. even the rubberized paint can pose problems. Make sure whatever you get has a coarse grain or sand mixed in, otherwise when you pull in that first icey day your car will end up in the drywall.

Oh, I love those Main Street Detached. I have a Main Street Town that we just had a framewalk with this morning. Which model did you get?

Cool! We have family that live in Bryn Mawr and it is a gorgeous place to go visit. Did not know Katherine Hepburn went to Bryn Mawr college!
