DIY Garage Floors

[@FATMAC2]

i wanna do that so bad. such a satisfying outcome

[@shawnr771]

Go for it. The kits are $100 or so. Did one several years ago. Stuff worked great. When you think you are done prepping, be picky check your work several times. Prep work is the key to a great final product.

I wish I had your energy. I’ve always wanted to be that creative. Kudos

[@holylabs]

Just carious why you don’t have energy? Are you sick?

[@nallelimaldonado7802]

I do this for a living in Florida me and my husband own an Epoxy Floor Design company !! It looks great for now but that diy kit won’t hold up long. Try not to park your car in there while tires are hot you may get some peeling!!

[@XxXDOMINIONXxX]

they didn't grind the concrete so theirs will 100% peel lol.

[@jabairsea]

I agree this will come off. I did this in my basement storeroom and for foot traffic it has lasted for almost twenty years so far. No Cars

[@Blue_Rose1973]

Would mil pile applications help along with scoring the concrete.

[@MrsNsf74]

I am moving to Belize and want to do this in floor in house what do you recommend ?

[@Skulllywag]

A garage floor is a garage floor...stop trying to make them "stylish". Even the BEST epoxy job will eventually peel...then you have to deal with stripping every inch of the rest.

[@denisepearson6572]

Great job ❤It works for your needs not everyone else’s If I had a garage that I didn’t use to store my car I’d do this and add rug to anchor it and add slip protection

[@mawi1172]

Tell your beautiful hubby THANKS for the helping hand. Even tho its his too, many wouldn't even bother to help. ❤😂 He's a Sweetie 🥰😘🥰🥰.

My basement shop floor has this coating. It looked good but I have found it just doesn’t last. I hope you have better luck with it. It looks great. If I do epoxy anything again I will probably have it professionally done.

It truly was! But it was totally worth it!

[@lowsideluke]

For those considering doing this, you absolutely MUST grind the concrete. The acid etch is not enough for a long lasting bond. Professionals will tell you this too.

[@studio_adash]

Haha yes!! I love that idea! It does looked unfinished with the way it is now 🙈

[@Digitalhunny]

@@studio_adash I was thinking you could make it silly, by really hyping up an "amazing transformation"! 😂 You know, get creative with it. Make it an early April Fools day prank on your hubby, kinda like "Did you do something new with your hair?" But, _instead_ of hair make it, "stair". 😂

[@Digitalhunny]

​@@amsterdamr0x _Oh yeah!_ Just think _how_ much safer something like a 2.5' X 2.5' square platform stair would be to step down on to when going out to the garage. Imagine it's the mornings & you're still a bit tired, perhaps a little clumsy. That stair would be smart AF. _OR_ when going up, to take in 2 armfuls of groceries & you'd have a full platform to stand on while you open that door instead of, a teeny tiny tree root in the woods, type of stair. Please, tell us that it's... 🎶PROJECT TIME? 🎶 She could explain to us why it's better & safer in a whole new & exciting video, free content! 😂😂

[@eribean8862]

Saw an open house (one for sale and on view) near Vernon and they had a very similar floor in the garage. I loved it there and love yours. 🎉🎉

[@davidnunez7889]

Looks great good job

[@studio_adash]

Thank you!

[@tammieames]

You worked hard but believe me chemically etching the concrete is not effective to remove oil grease ect. Concrete grinding is the only way to get a long life on a coating. Epoxy is not uv protected and also because of the small amount of flake in these kits you don't have a good texture on the floor. It's also extremely slick when wet. It looks great but have seen many of these floors fail after 6 months. Temperature effects install as well as humidity Alot of work for a short term floor.

[@geekchick4859]

My mother did this outside and every time it gets wet, it’s slippery AF. And they’re in their 70s. Bloody stupid. I warmed them. They didn’t listen.

[@peterzbasnik387]

Miracle Stone is the only epoxy floor that seems to last. I have tried several times with products similar to this and got two years out of them. Winter is rough here too- snow and salt.

[@shelbyedward1617]

Wow, very good to know.

[@eliteautodetailing2015]

They make powder to mix with the second coat to make it not slippery

[@WomanUnfiltered]

I did one just lije this some 12 years ago and the floor is still holding up well.

[@ShavinMcCrotch]

Looks great and sometimes lasts up to a whole year! 😃👍

[@lynxlynx3054]

gorgeous!!

[@studio_adash]

Thank you!

[@tlakepake7668]

Might be easy but sure is time consuming. For starters, you have to take everything out for days or even weeks depending on schedule. Adding the glittery stuff hides imperfections but also hides small things you might drop.

Great job! Enjoy!

[@Henry_Swanson]

coatings always look good new, like painting an old wood fence or block wall. A few years down the road a peeling coating looks worse than the old bare material did.

[@studio_adash]

No chance. But thanks for your opinion

[@brandondobson761]

Yeah but usually an outdoor area would need some upkeep wether that annually or every other year, there's not a lot of stuff out there that will last forever without up keep

[@Henry_Swanson]

@@brandondobson761 Like concrete?

[@brandondobson761]

Yeah but what you said was comparing it to being a painted fence or block walls which are usually weathered outdoors whereas this is in a garage therefore protected from that weathering

[@lowsideluke]

@@studio_adash Given you didn't grind the concrete, he does have a point.

[@edwardswindows6209]

It's not gonna last once you drive a car with hot tires, floor will peel eventually should have been sanded with diamond wheel, it would have beenb okay if concrete was brand new . Good luck always remember there's always a right way for prepping projects and not.

[@SethHainly]

Looks great! Thanks for the video

[@wrathika]

One tip I wish I had known was to toss the foam rollers that come with the kit (they just soak up the epoxy and detach part way through) and instead buy an epoxy roller from the hardware store. It looks a bit like it's made from Velcro. You can also squeegee the epoxy as well

[@premsaggar]

Wow, excellent tip for beginners like me. thank you. I've made a note fir when i do my floor. 🙏🏻

I can't imagine this in our garage during winter in Canada , we'll all slip and brake our back.

[@johnpalmer3848]

Then put a non-slip additive to the paint before rolling out the final coat.

[@studio_adash]

They have an anti-skid additive that you can apply (and I did) with the clear coat. It helps give it texture so that you don’t slip.

[@NicholasWHaley7]

My parents have it. Never worried about slipping. Even with rain and snow

[@tweedyyyyy]

[@carolbierman2910]

Looks fantastic!! Maybe next light, light grey paint on walls?

It is very nice, well done, don't listen to haters here, but what you used to fill the cracks ?? || I did mine 7 yrs. ago, still holding and good, but yes, if one drops something small... good luck finding it !! 😂😂😂 but one do find it, its just a little harder, but if you put your face to the floor and look sideways you find it.

[@WendyDahling3]

When we bought our home, the bathroom has linoleum that looks like a stone road. It’s not flat or smooth and it’s securely glued down. Since we can’t just tile over its uneven surface, I was thinking of painting it or doing what you did in your garage. Could this work inside the home as well?
