    Advice for protecting garage floor under Racedeck

    Im hoping to get some advice about what garage floor coating is best for my application. Im moving into a new (to me) house at the end of the month that was built in 2012. The garage floor is bare concrete and is flawless, and I would like to keep it that way. I have racedeck tiles in my...

    Bikes and Cars - my garage build

    Oh and my 8 month old aussie had an accident on the tiles (actually 2 accidents) and I was dissapointed to find out, as I feared liquids get down under the tiles very easily and quickly. On the plus side it is in fact easy to pull up tiles with a putty knife. (the tiles are also aussie camo!)

    updates still coming- slow day at work! next up is cabinets and shelving on the far side (car side) of the garage. I hate having things on the ground next to a car so that leaves elevated shelving or cabinets. Cabinets seem 'safer' to me next to a car since nothing can accidentally fall off...

    Progress Update Step 2 : Paint. painting is kind of boring so TL;DR: painting ***** and is more expensive than you think. Walls are shiny white now. Its funny how improving one part of something makes you realize how the rest of it looks like complete ***. I hadnt planned on painting...

    Step 1: Flooring. What flooring to use? The previous owner of my house took leftover interior wall paint and painted the garage floor with it. ( :finger: ) This would make epoxy or VCT a bigger pain in the *** than they are already since it would require the work stripping the old paint...

    Racedeck and dirt?

    I mountain bike regularly and store muddy bikes in my garage, so dirt is a frequent visitor to my garage. Is racedeck/motofloor good flooring for this situation? Im concerned that the dirt and sand will work its way down into the cracks and cause gritty noise and wear. Ease of sweeping...

    Big D's Tiles by SnapLock ?

    I just noticed they used the same photos as MotoFloor, possibly (hopefully?) just a rebrand. Im going to take the plunge and order some, hopefully it is good stuff. Now just to decide all black, or checkerboard....

    Big D's Tiles by SnapLock ?

    Anyone have any experience with these? I see they are on sale at BigFloors.com, anyone know what these compare to in the SnapLock line? Are they equivalent to something else in the RaceDeck line like GarageDeck or MotoFloor just rebranded, or are they lower quality?
