You’re trying to figure out what to do with your garage floor and there’s just so much information out there that it’s overwhelming.

How do you decide what to do?

You want to make the right decision!

But you just don’t understand the difference between all the epoxies, paints, stains and sealers Everyone sold.

They all claim to be her best and the the easiest apply!

So what are you doing?

Well, I can help you there. I am not selling any of these!

But I install them.

I’m Mike and my company Concrete Floors by Day, Inc has been installing garage floor epoxies, concrete floor stains and sealers for over 30 years.

That’s us above preparing a garage floor for an epoxy coating.

I’ll share with you what I’ve learned from my experiences and give you my unbiased opinion on which ones I like and which I don’t like.

What is the best garage floor paint for your garage floor?

Want a fantastic looking garage floor?

When I’m looking to spend money or “invest” money in flooring for my garage, I look for three basic qualities.

• Durability – I want it to last a long time.
• Appearance – I want the floor to make me feel good
• Maintenance – I want it to be easy to clean

These two tiers look amazing!

Both have some kind of coating that I think is excellent.

One is a polyaspartic polyurea and the other is a 2 part 100% solids epoxy.

Consider hiring a professional to do this

We install these three types of garage flooring more often than any other type of coating.

In my opinion they are NOT a do it yourself Type of garage floor coating project. They all require some training, product knowledge, and practice to perfect.

You could apply an acrylic concrete sealer

Sealants are a good product. They are easier to apply than epoxies, but typically need to be recoated every year or two.

A pair I would avoid

I always get calls from homeowners who have this stuff installed on their floor and wonder why it’s peeling after a month or two.

These products are simply cheap, quick and easy to install.

The problem is they just can’t stand up to the wear and tear that a garage takes from cars, foot traffic, and work areas.

After a while, the humidity can start to cause mold and mildew. The only way to clean under the tiles is to remove them, clean the floor and put the tiles back on.

Doesn’t sound like much fun to me. On top of that they are quite expensive and I think I would avoid those as well.
