A 2-part epoxy shop floor paint is the only permanent solution. The floor has to be acid-washed first. If the coating doesn't come in 2 parts, it's not an epoxy. The fumes are also pretty noxious. A

This just in from that friend of mine who did it himself. == Clean the floor well with a degreasing agent (soap). Etch the floor with Hydrochloric acid (muriatic pool acid). Rinse well and allow to d

I have done three garage floors. One was a disaster, one was okay, and the present one is close to ideal. Disaster floor -- I was sold 2-part epoxy paint, water based. Wrong stuff. It's not meant for

Don't miss the opportunity with a new shop to heat the building by warming the floor. Very often this only requires a water heater and pex tubing 12" on center imbedded in the concrete. Even better
