Anyone painted their garage floor?

Think they were roughly 10mm. The key is to get full coverage of the adhesive beneath. This ensures weight is evenly spread through the tile.
From that perspective it’s one of the strongest materials you could want on a floor. I’ve dropped pliers onto it from full height and not even a scratch.

My concrete floor had quite severe worn patches from studded winter tyres. As recommended by the epoxy manufacturer, I used an angle grinder with a diamond cup and dust cover to grind down to healthy concrete. Some lessons learned, a proper floor grinder rental would have save me a couple of evenings. Filling any cracks or pores in the concrete is beneficial - otherwise air bubbles will keep surfacing while the epoxy still cures, leaving nasty small holes in the surface. I used a syringe and needle to fill the holes the following day no problem.Nanu said:

I am on my second tiled garage floor. One of my friends is an exceptional tiler so he did my old house and my current one. The old garage was a single integrated into a semi-detached house. The new one is a newly built detached garage capable of holding three cars and "stuff". I've never had issues but both times the floor was very carefully levelled beforehand. My tiles are also porcelain, I think. You want to be a bit careful picking them because some tiles are slipperier than others when wet. Dark tiles and a dark-ish grout are also a good idea to hide the inevitable dust and dirt.

I'm humbled by the coolness of some of these garages.. I thought I was looking at people's kitchens/utility rooms.. think I'll join the Kia Forum where I assume the garages are more modest..
True. Very tidy. Mine is full of stuff. I could do with a, shed for gardening tools and stuff but I don't think I will bother with that now. I still have scope to make more space. Redundant kids bikes need to go for one. Lots of other kids stuff to be sorted and disposed of. I'll get there one day. We have been in this house 19 years so accumulated a fair bit. Plenty of room for the Zed in there though.maxman said:Pbondar said:
