Thanks!
If you work in the garage,, isn't it harder to slid under the car with the sand grit in the paint? Like a bare concrete floor would be? Don't have a lift.
How would you prep an already painted floor that needs redoing? I used an epoxy coating with no sand or flakes 20 years ago and it's mega chipped now after the restoration and other stuff.

Been doing a little checking on cement paint and thinking about using por-15 they make a paint for cement and they say that even over oil stains it will still not come off, and they say it's real tough not have the web site but check it out and let me know what you all thinkok, have done a fair amount of research, but still undecided.
Those with epoxy or over coverings, let me know how you feel about your covering still.
Ease of installation and durability.
BTW, I finally got it. Bought a house with an 1800 square foot garage.
Michael B for get the floor can I come over and drool all over the cars in your shopNo polished is not all that great. You cant get the polished concrete bright enough. Period. If you want to optimize the lighting characteristics you have to go with a reflective color. How do I know? Well I have polished concrete here:

And it still absorbs oil spills = never come out. They wipe right off the epoxy.
We did the same thing only it was in a wooden garage with a cobblestone floor. There was smoke everywhere and pouring out of every gap in the wood. The neighbor did call the fire department LOLThis thread reminded me of something from my misspent youth.
Years ago, I did a burnout in my garage in my 440 6 pack 69 Dart. (I was only 23, it seemed like the thing to do at the time.) It was a still day and the smoke only had the main door to dissipate. A neighbor came over because he thought the garage was on fire. lol He was an old motor head and got a kick out of it.
I guess I wasn't a candidate for floor coatings. lol
Carry on...Oh, BTW, I used a line lok and the car didn't go sideways at all. I was a careful idiot.
