Kayla, Thanks. I'll try the acrylic floor wax for now and then when I need the small repair, I will order more of the clear coat.

I've got a couple small spots where the original clear coat and paint has peeled off, but I was also wondering how to get the shine back on the whole floor. What product do people use.? Not too concerned about the small areas, I can get a small batch and re-do it, but the rest of the floor is...

Is this recommended by those of you that may wrench for a living? I use Howes in my '14 ram 2500 cummins

Did you apply aluminum oxide. Looks like it from the close ups. What ratio did you use with each batch. I think the bag is 1/2 lb? I didn't apply it on mine, so I need to add another clear coat with the grit. thx

I had some too, but it wasn't the color coat. It was a little hotter the next day and in some areas the clear coat got pretty thick, i.e some of the seams filled up and I had some small bubbles that you can't really see, unless you look hard..overall thrilled with my epoxy-coat. will try to load...

...said interlopers.umm I mean neighbors should maybe get with the program and register with Garage Journal...jus sayin

...Did I miss the cabinet that has a hidden 50" plasma that rises up with a push of a button, seriously, this place has everything else...

very nice, btw, what color of grey did you use on the lower section of the wall? and what type of paint is it?

thanks. again everyone has been extremely helpful. I did the citrus degreaser last night and then I put some kitty litter on and will sweep it up tonight when I get home. Maybe it will pick up a little extra oil that may seep up. It's supposed to be 85 in Denver today ( humidity probably still...

thanks all. I do have a citrus based degreaser. Gonna do 1 more round of heavy elbow grease. water test, and then the prep and then will be applying my Denver Bronco themed Epoxy-Coat floor..I will do some before and after pics, cause we all know you have to have pics stay tuned.

thanks. it does help to clarify what the acid does and does not do. I did do kitty litter first. picked up everything I couldn't wipe up, have used a de-greaser and really scrubbed it in good with a wire brush, and now there is only the set-in light stains of the oil left. I also tried a disc...

I have a couple small areas where some motor oil leaked thru a cardboard box. the overall area where the spots are is maybe 5 sq feet. I have de-greased and scrubbed it twice and there is still visible "oil stains", but the surface doesn't feel bad. My question is, when I get ready to start...

I will be doing my Epoxy Coat floor in the next month. I have my kit and am just working on a couple of minor oil spill areas with a degreaser. I'm going over each spot a couple of times with a 1:1 concentration with water and taking a week in between to see how it fades with drying. Then I'll...

very impressive. you may want to have a "poison pill" cause when Jay Leno gets ahold of this thread, he may want to propose an acquisition. Nicely done. btw, my daily driver, 02 gmc sierra duramax could use a makeover..hint hint.

agree, floor does come out nice, in spite of the Laker colors...just kidding. I have my epoxy-coat kit too, but am going to complete some electrical and dry wall before I put the coating down, which will be navy blue, with white and orange flecks...Broncos colors..hmm wonder if I can flak an "18...
