Thanks for the tip Steve. I do have a large tray with absorbent pad in it just in case, but so far no leak or spill onto the floor. I did figure out how to pop up and get under to remove or replace tiles, but I have to agree more for a show garage than a utility workshop floor in all practical sense. It seems to do okay rolling around the floor jack, but I use QuickJack to lift. I think I?m bound to spill oil one day. I have spilled coolant before but most stayed on the surface. 🤙🏼

I had a similar situation with my back garage. I wanted to do something with the floor. I hated the dusting from the raw concrete surfaces.

I did my research and decided to have a professional company apply an epoxy coating.

I hired a Chicago area company that does industrial floor coatings at places like White Sox Park and other places.

I had them do both of my garages. They filled every imperfection and crack. I have yet to find a flaw in their application. The garage floors turned out perfect.

Coating has a ten year warranty and has been in place nearly three years. It still looks like new. It is impervious to all automotive chemicals.

My front garage houses my daily drivers and in our lovely Illinois winters we get a lot of salt and road slop on the floor.

Once a week in winter (when we have snow) I shovel snow onto the floor and sweep it out like sweeping compound. Cleans the epoxy floor perfectly.

The coatings were not cheap, but neither are high quality garage tiles.

To protect the investment, I always use carpet squares under my floorjacks snd stands when I do car work.

In the back garage, I also use carpet squares under the tires of the cars that spend most of their time parked.

I have attached some before and after pictures if the back garage floor

I let my wife pick out the color. It was an easier sell that way.Attachment 14562Attachment 14563Attachment 14565

That?s a nice option there. I did the DIY Rustoleum Epoxy Shield when one of my homes was brand new. It wasn?t bad, but no way to compare with the good, commercial, and professional way you did it. Awesome! Smart guy; my wife had this garage built for me since I can?t speak the language and made it her idea to plan it all. [emoji2]🤙🏼

Here is something I came across yesterday and bought for my garage wall just in case someone else is interested. The things I do when I?m bored and can?t work on my car. 🤪[emoji38]

Since I decided I wanted to live in Japan I had to give up having a nice, big garage and workshop like in the US. I don?t even have room for this wall art, but I?ll find a way and make room. [emoji38]

No, but you?re right that it could have been. They poured concrete slab and then framed/built the structure. I?ll insulate the walls later. My last deployment to the Middle East I lived in a container this sized stacked up in a warehouse so I know what you mean. [emoji847]🤙🏼Image1612280366.680569.jpg

Love the roll up door and decor of your garage.

I ran out of wall space in mine after hanging 5 original BFG banners. I have a pile of posters waiting to be framed once the new place is built along with a couple of awards of my parents that are special to me including a High Speed Event FTD NCCC convention award signed by Zora, the plaque from the first museum delivered FRC/Z06 back in 99' ( i've got the car now too), and a few more. They will go up in my office for now.

Thanks for your thoughts Mike!

That?s nice garage space to be able to fit all those BFG banners! [emoji33] I hear you and have so much stuff, but no where to put them. That?s some awesome collectibles you have there. I?m in the process of converting my Z driver?s seat into an office chair. 🤙🏼
