God bless your dad. You can tell he’s been doing that job for a while. Looks great.

[@frankyfong36]

Jeez. Dad did it all huh? Must be nice

[@christschool]

You won the lottery with having a father like yours.

[@krazykendi8078]

Very helpful! Thanks!! I went to their site and requested for a quotation for my 2-car garage! Lucky to have such dad!! 😂😬😬

[@Bluewillicars]

That looks really nice. Keep up the good work on your KZbin channel. Really enjoy your vedios.

[@gino82524]

Looks like your dad did all the work. He did a great job !!

[@BMWFanatic]

Yep, he wanted to do the install as he loves doing this so it was great to be part of it :)

[@snofisksnowboards7586]

came out great!

[@theodoregrossman2490]

how much peripheral tile expansion space did you plan for?

[@carsandguitars7064]

When you were installing the tiles I see that you kept them all together when you removed from the box.I see other install videos of the tiles being snapped apart into 4 pieces.

[@alivideo403]

I have heavy Gym Machines in my garage. How would these tiles perform with 300 to 600 lb machines on them?

[@JorgenMollerJr]

It's engineered to allow drainage, the patented design allows liquids and debris to flow freely to drains or out the door. also very easy to unsnap and single tile or section for access for any reason. You can wash your car in garage too!

[@TheElectrocar]

For your transition pieces, did you start out with the tiles on the female or male end?

[@gopro369]

looks great but an awfully unpractical flooring. Ois spill? dirt, sand etc stuck in those small cracks - good luck cleaning out

[@brandondarnes3699]

It looks great!!

[@chrissinger24]

I too feel like I’m 6 at work with my Dad again when he offers to do something.

[@g1markla]

Perfect for my new construction home April 2022 Garage

[@KGMNOLA]

What is the front edge , the part that your car tire will hit first. It looks beveled and I did not see it mentioned. Would like to know as it seems like one of the most important parts of this project

[@doseofcardio4364]

How do we get a big logo in the middle? Same company?

[@okioki1131]

Out of all the options, why the one that allows water through? Isn't the point to keep fluids off the concrete?

[@jeremyeubanks2387]

They look cool...dont really like how fluid can still get to the garage floor.. Can you roll things like engine stands or engine hoists freely without issues?

[@XLIVLP]

Engine stand loaded will damage them severely with all the engine weight on there...

[@josevelasquez4959]

That is awesome never see that before, it looks like a checker flag

[@guillermopinto140]

What brand is that garden hose reel?

[@richardthomas1531]

Shoot,I'M 65 and I'm jealous of your Pop. Takes me 5min to get off my knees and I worked in Construction for 40yrs.

[@digitalsteel5]

Looks great but does fluid not just sit under these?

[@joebloggs4191]

The new floor looks good but the holes in the tiles and dust getting through it and cleaning would do my head in not to mention every time you drop something means you got to pull the tile up and that if you know where the thing that you dropped landed and which tile to pull up! Well as long as you are pleased that is all that matters. Other then that I just wish I had a garage! LOL.

[@ridin_low193]

They have different one that don’t have holes and they also connect to these. So say there is a part in your garage we’re you do most if your work you can install those kinds there and with some many different color patterns you can still make it look nice or like they belonged together.

[@jgalliher9]

I’ve had FreeFlow in both my garages for going on six years. A good telescoping magnet solves the problem.

[@g1markla]

Which edges Snap on fit was used for Race Deck free flow garage floor tiles?

[@gsandeep7058]

Is it easy to clean if any spills over ?

[@bexaminer1]

The floor looks great. You were lucky to have your dad help you out. I wonder about something though. At the beginning, you were holding the tile up and I know that the design is open meaning that dirt or other debris can fall through to the actual floor. How are you able to clean that up when you need to? Next, how much of a gap did you leave on the edges? I don't believe you mentioned that. Lastly do the transition pieces from the tile flooring to the edge of the garage opening come with the tile order? Thanks a lot.

[@allenrees5803]

Love the look my neighbor installed but do not like walking on it barefoot and if kneel on it you need a pad

[@daphneed9026]

How many tiles did you use?

[@melmaquinaybalino6027]

Where can i buy that tiles?

[@red_fox_flareside]

It looks awesome, but I agree with a few people on here. I don’t like how they’re open to where liquid could go through to the floor.

[@williesaylor3097]

How many feet in one box. And how many boxes did it take you to finish the job

[@duaner9392]

Are these safe for using a floor jack and jack stands?

[@RoninX5]

How do you get sand and dirt from in between the grates? If you live anywhere there’s the four seasons the accumulation of dirt would be significant. Unless you can vacuum your flooring?

[@jgalliher9]

You can sweep or vacuum it. There are also channels in the underside of the tile which allows water to flow.

[@Jwips.]

How many tiles were used ?

[@EvelOttos]

So what happens when you inevitably knock over a 5 quart container of oil that you THOUGHT you put the cap on tight and instead it dumps its contents into those open tiles?

[@tyty0071]

Exactly. Also what if your garage is slanted where the water does not run out the house but rather inward?

[@shrimpu]

They do have solid designs BUT even then... there has to be gap where the tiles are connected.... and fluid can STILL get into those areas ....

[@armyguyavnret]

Looks great. I like those tiles.

[@davidbeiler6364]

how much is it for a typical 2 car garage?

[@mikerad7424]

Can you cut them with a razor?

[@xsisscorzky2144]

Damnnnnn that looks cool

[@ohgerald]

Is it possible to vacuum with the tiles in place, or is removing the tiles or hosing down the ways you can clean?

[@Harem__King]

Just use a hand leaf blower

[@patrickramsey4676]

I love the look and idea of these tiles! But I've always been convened that if I spill engine fluids they'll be stuck under the tiles and hard to clean... and I also have the fear of not knowing where I drop small bolts or parts :O

[@jgalliher9]

They have a number of solid designs. The material is impervious to petroleum products.

[@BabeRock1]

How do you clean the dirt out of them.

[@_Moto215]

Came here to ask the same question

[@vvilliamluk]

You have to take out a large portion of the tiles in order to clean it. Because of this, I will not buy this product again unless you are in area that don't get snow or lots of dirt from the road.

[@teknewsdaily]

Looks great, what color are the tiles - black or are they graphite?

[@gsmith207]

So funny. Went on KZbin first to see how it’s done and this was my favorite by far! Exactly how me and my son would do it. Get outta my way bud! Just watch, and you do the next one. Nice job you guys. No fights either love it!

[@MrThe1234guy]

Nice dirt catchers

[@zamx96]

Get a B58 engine car and work on that. Itll cover the supra community as well

[@supramantt10]

swisstrax = racecar ... 👀 any news? haha - looks great!

[@JamesBond-yw3dj]

My question is .... Does the floor jack and creeper move freely on that floor?

[@JustMrRodgers]

This is the answer we are all looking for! I use jacks and jack stands all the time and would like to know if they are safe to use on floors like this

[@vvilliamluk]

I had the same floor tiles. floor jack moves freely however it dents the tiles if you jack up the car.

[@JustMrRodgers]

Will L THANK YOU!! The answer to this question seems difficult to find. Thank you so much for clearing that up.

[@vvilliamluk]

@@JustMrRodgers No problem. While those tiles look awesome, there are more problems than one would expect. During hot summer months, the tiles would break apart very easily and the plastic of the tiles become so soft, it will buckle up when you drive on it with a little speed. If you drive the car on it in an angle (we have a side load garage), the tiles will definitely break apart. Don't mix the solid and freeflow tiles as they expand in different rate in hot temperature, the joints will break as a result and you can fix them until the temperature cools down. If you drive on the lose joints, most likely the tiles won't connect again. RaceDeck does have great customer service. They will send you replacement tiles if there is any problems.

[@jeffjshrum47]

Not a friendly floor for working on your car.

[@rubenmagdaleno2382]

How much did you spend?

[@modynegm2704]

Thank you for this video, i been looking for that product for a while . Which color is that in your Garage? Is it the BLACK , GRAPHITE or ALLOY ?

[@arthuralvillar7148]

Did he ever respond what color he put in his garage?

[@Ladosligese]

DiY ? :D .. dude looks good but ya dad did all the work :-p looks killer tho

[@adam.liston]

How easy it to clean though? Mud and dirt getting in those cracks? I don't think it would be practical anywhere it snows.

[@lonredmon2496]

Wondering the same. Lots of people have same question, goes unanswered.

[@MarcoLiftz]

Sick floor brother

[@triplex86]

So, if you get oil or a spill on the floor it goes right through the tile and sticks / stains onto the concrete garage floor. What's the point of using tiles like that? Surely, the whole aim is get a durable floor covering that is stain resistant and easy to clean. Also, the perforations in the tiles are just going to trap dust and dirt over time. Sure, they look real pretty when installed but no, definitely not for me sorry.

[@MariaOrLex]

how much did it cost for ur garage for the tiles

[@spacep0d]

$2000-$2500 depending on the size of your garage.

[@Joe_Stip]

What are the colors you chose from Race Deck?

[@4961Studebaker]

Graphite and black is my guess but I’d like to know as well. Alloy looks good too.

[@davidBarrel]

how do you clean it? doesn't dust get trapped there?

[@spacep0d]

Strong leaf blower should do the trick. That's what I plan to use.

[@arthuralvillar7148]

What color are the tiles You put in your garage

[@BMWFanatic]

Graphite, gray

[@yukuhana]

I don't understand about the point of your first straight edge against the wall without cutting. What exactly was done besides pushing connected tiles against the wall?!!

[@BMWFanatic]

You start on one side first then work your way over, leaving just having to cut along your other wall. It’s what RaceDeck recommends

[@TlJReptiles]

Hey what color is that is that black or grey?

[@BMWFanatic]

Grey

[@Rocky-xx2zg]

Are the RaceDeck Tiles protected from the UV Rays??

[@BMWFanatic]

I don’t think they specifically called out but I’ve had mine since this video and none of them are faded when I had the garage door opener in the summertime

[@Rocky-xx2zg]

@@BMWFanatic Thank you for the information.

[@Code2Quest]

can someone answer me if i had this floor and one of my kids spilled lets say a soda how would i clean it up? would the tiles need to be removed?

[@MotoQuickShifter]

Code2quest dnt you just hate it when no one replies back, i wana know that too !

[@Code2Quest]

@@MotoQuickShifter happens 😆

[@MotoQuickShifter]

Code2quest lol ive done my research, there is no way of cleaning any spillage or dust gathering in the little Crevices unless you wanna rip everything out to clean up , deffo not for me , must say the tiles do look sick though :)

[@miketyson2258]

Just lift up the one tile...

[@arturohernanadez2035]

HE ANSWERS IT AT 7:25 LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@gabrielvergara9611]

Your Dad did all the work 😂

[@sammyjames1929]

How easy does the creeper roll over that floor?

[@patrickramsey4676]

+1 I'm curious about this as well.

[@jgalliher9]

No problem. I can roll my 54” rollaway chest across it with no issues. Stools and creepers are no sweat.

[@stubbk3]

your garage is longer than my actual whole house,,

[@brunaobasket]

Did one pack with 48 tiles was enough for your whole garage ?

[@spacep0d]

Nope. You'll need a lot more than that based on the size of your garage.

[@GR018]

Your lucky to have a nice capable dad.

[@Imwright720]

These type of flooring look amazing. The problem is all the debris that end up under them. It’s also very hard to wash out. You can trap moisture under it and it really can start to stink.

[@toddgill2338]

Looks nice at a glance.... but I honestly would never use the voided tiles vs solid faced tiles..... this tile is a dirt and debris collector . Looks like an arduous and time consuming job to remove dirt, salt, water, etc that falls through from tires.

[@Jan-2020]

Good deal...just sit there and watch your Dad install the tile in your garage.

[@1aspirefit]

If there is an oil spill. I guess it will just sit there.

[@spacep0d]

Remove tiles, clean, re-assemble.

[@AndrewBMW]

👍👌

[@penelopelaclaire4973]

How come you are not helping your father and I hope you did pay him something since he did all the. Personally my family would have never let my father do it without helping no matter even if he said he did not want help.

[@teamjesus7087]

I can't believe you get all that water and dirt out. It doesn't get trapped in between those holes...? You say the water just flows out. hmm...? better watch that. It could cause a bug problem.

[@jaiderariza1292]

Very good. Just it seems a mistake made on 1:04... the tile need to be flip to align straight edge with the wall.

[@gnicevids]

Hope you paid your father well for this

[@gwhiten2158]

I would do this for any of my kids and pay for it as well.

[@sandman6617]

How about the cost....wtf

[@manjacita]

you never talked and showed when you did the front edge.

[@BMWFanatic]

I thought it did. I’ll be doing another video soon on the garage and will find my footage on it

[@jc51373]

The dirt underneath would drive me insane. awful idea.

[@The_Real_Indiana_Joe]

Hell, the dust in the saw line drives me nuts.

[@jeffjshrum47]

I’m not a big fan of these type of tiles. Because of debris blowing in etc. armor garage epoxy is the way to go in my opinion.

[@matt.108]

I feel like the “here in my garage” was meant to be a joke. But I can’t really tell...

[@mchowder201]

Ya don’t bother helping dad... Just film him.

[@jpramos5959]

Can you car wash your car in there? Thank you

[@spacep0d]

Yes. The tiles allow water drainage...not just for snowmelt but for car washing too.

[@typedrew]

Great now you have no reason not to do more work to the car in there

[@rcrdl5473]

1:05 placed a tile the wrong way, I would use a different floor guy to do the install!!

[@swimmer751]

Can I borrow your Dad?

[@thomasreid8030]

typical old guy doing all the work, young guy looking on doing all the talk

[@a802jz]

Elder slave labor.

[@johncgr800]

How is this flooring on bare feet? Also, can I have your dad’s phone number? LOL😂

[@diamondfirst9956]

Floor jack will damage the tile, and the dirt water always will be under the tile you cant clean it , that tile is a junk, don' buy it!

[@jgalliher9]

Nope. I’ve used floor jacks dozens of times on my RD floor with no problem.

[@diamondfirst9956]

@@jgalliher9 how about dirt or small bolts, nuts, washers when you fixing your car and they will fall on the floor, no that tile not for garage.

[@spacep0d]

@@diamondfirst9956 A strong leaf blower takes care of dust. Use magnets to retrieve tiny metal parts. Ever played the game 'Operation'? It's like that...or just remove a tile and retrieve.
