Nice job Wayne! Did this to my garage and every time I walk into the garage, I feel like I am walking into another bedroom.

Here is a shot of my floor, one word of warning, my 930 when parking with hot engine and tires has baked the epoxy to the point where it is pealing off :(

Was told to clean and apply another coat and seal it with the clear coating this time to prevent the peeling. (don't know if this is correct, but am going to try it)

They did four coats of clear on mine, and I had to wait a week to put anything on it, but I have no peeling and no tire marks to speak of.

i used a different brand of epoxy with out any flecks. the floor is pretty slippery when wet and in my bare feet. no problem with shoes on. i also waited a week before parking cars. no problems with chipping, peeling/lifting.

As always Bill, let me know if you decide to do it and I'll come over to help out.

I'm not sure what we would do with your lift, though. It's way too heavy to go back on the floor for a few days. I guess we could just roll it outside?

Thanks for the offer! It may be a couple years before I tackle this project though. Good point about the lift. I wonder if we could coat the two car stall first and let it cure good then put the lift over on that while we do the third stall? Or would it 'look' funny because of a crack or a line? Oh well, something to think about.....

Does look nice dude-o!
