Choosing a garage floor coating

Start with the slab and the way the garage is used.

The practical answer

The choice between an epoxy-based system and another garage floor coating begins with the slab. Moisture, cracks, oil, old coatings, desired texture and vehicle use affect preparation and product suitability. Compare complete systems, not only the topcoat name.

What to know

Epoxy, other resin systems and decorative flake finishes differ in preparation and application requirements. A surface assessment should lead the product choice.

Before you request a scope

Note old coatings, oil spots, cracks and moisture
Decide on the desired finish and maintenance expectations
Ask how surface preparation is included in the scope

Good questions.

What should a floor-coating quote explain?

Ask for surface preparation, repair, primer, finish layers, cure guidance and exclusions.

Can a peeling old floor be coated over?

The old material needs assessment and possibly removal before a new system is specified.
