Ok, so my husband and I are new to garage floor finishing world. We have new construction concrete being poured in the next week or so. We live in Wisconsin so there will be snow/salt and the garage will get some sun exposure. We will have a 1200 sq foot garage and a 200 sq foot screened in porch that we are considering putting a finish product on.
The garage will not be used for any type of mechanical work but we do have a four wheeler, riding lawn mower, mini motorbike and 2 vehicles. We also have two children that will be in and out a lot with their bikes, toys, etc.
We are concerned about keeping the dust down, protecting the concrete from damage/elements, (somewhat) the look of it, ease of application, longevity of the product and the budget. We do not what it to be slippery. We are open to a paint, sealer, epoxy, etc or a mat/tile, etc.
Is there any product that first comes to mind that you'd recommend for us? We have asked many people we know and we haven't found any that have used any products that we've found when researching.
Any advice is appreciated!
