Painting garage floor advice

[ClaireNJ]

Funny you asked this, Hubbie has 2 pots being delivered today, cheapest paint we could find & got good reviews, something to keep him busy over the Bank Holiday

I used 2pack resin paint to do my garage floor a couple of years ago, was dry within 24 hours and hard enough to drive on in 48, however double garage size was about £1000 in paint/and hardener but it looks as good today as when we did it .

Wish I could find the photo of ours after we had done it - with little 3 year old size footprints in it, along with the photo of said 3 year old with red feet😂 So my advice would be keep any kids or pets away !

What brand did you use? I assume you had to mix the two pack yourself?

Mine is 12 x 4m.
Plastic tiles are around £1200.

All done 🙌
First tin ran out just before the end so needed to open the second one

Looks great! How long did it take to dry? My husband is patiently waiting for it to dry so he can move the fridge (wine fridge) and tumble dryer back and finish the job!

As he only did it today, we are going to wait till tomorrow to put all the stuff back, he’s thinks the first bit he did this morning is dry though 🤞
Yours looks great too 😍

this is exactly the stuff i used. i went from this:

to this. our garage was so full of stuff after moving, i had to do it in sections, moving things to the other side of the room once the second coat had dried...

my only gripe is it can get a little slippy near the garage door if it is wet (i slipped once) - when i get round to it, im gonna put a bit of sand in the bit of the pot thats left, and mix it in to provide a grippier surface from the door to the kitchen step... but i have so many other jobs to do first, for now i'm just extra careful when it's wet!

Louise. I have never seen such good brickwork in a garage. Is the garage an add on at a later date?
If not Wow! That cost big money to use those bricks internally.
