    Floor Color Thoughts: Orange?

    Check out the sand beige as an accent color here. Going with the house color is a safe bet (as long as it gets painted the same later on) and looks real sharp when the doors are open. I was surprised at how much I liked the white. You could do the white and use orange flakes. I'm not sure if...

    Haha. Thanks, AlphaGarage. So, far we love the way it looks (as does everyone else that has seen it). The top coat is great, super hard. Been parking in it and ended up dropping and dragging stuff when resetting it. So far not a scratch. And I am glad I did the SuperGrip. With the puddles...

    All because the woman didn't like the color. It took probably 35 hours of grinding to get the old stuff up. The Bosch 1773 concrete grinder was the workhorse of the operation. It was abused and kept on going. There wasn't anything tough about it except for the calices on my knees. An angle...
