I have the RD solid tiles and my Harley's kickstand will scratch the floor. Just use something under the kickstand and you'll be ok.

Use landscape cloth. If you do have seepage between the tiles at least landscape material is made to get wet. I used two layers of cloth and it reduced the hollow sound. I wouldn't use roofing felt for the reasons stated above.

A buddy used this to cover the walls in a motorcycle trailer. Looked good and worked great. This is probably your best, least costly option.

If going to the expense of epoxy, pick something user friendly. You'll NEVER keep it from showing dirt, tire tracks, etc. Imagine pulling a wet car into the garage.

Just a thought here....a buddy bought a stall mat from Tractor Supply to put in the back of his jeep. The mat had an overwhelming rubber odor that was so bad, he finally took it out. If that smell persists, I can only imagine what a garage floor full of these would smell like.

I considered Tuffseal, but just couldn't let myself spend that much. I opted for 18" RD and put two layers of landscape cloth down underneath the tiles (just in the foot traffic areas). I have no regrets. As you wade thru flooring choices, you'll find there is no perfect flooring-advantages...

Covering your floor with anything (epoxy, RaceDeck, etc) keeps the dust down. So, if you're picky about what's in your garage...

Check into renting one.

Nice floor - good job.

I used a table saw with the standard blade that came with the saw and my cuts were great. I'd think a bandsaw would work fine. Try cutting a tile with the bottom of the tile facing up and another with the top facing up. Compare the two to see if one cut looks better than the other.

I don't have epoxy, but RaceDeck. Try a steamer. I wound up with my wife's old one from the house and it works great. Walmart has them for about $60.

No matter what the temp is outside, if I leave my garage door open and the sun hits the tiles by the door, they buckle. It's not a big deal for me because I keep the door closed. However, I probably could have avoided this by placing the tiles in the sun on a hot day, let them expand, and then...

I live in the deep South and have RD in my garage. I wash my cars and motorcycle in the garage and have never had a mold or mildew issue under my tiles.

I've got RD tiles, wash my car, bike, etc., in the garage, live in the Deep South, so it's warm and humid all the time, and I've never had a mold or mildew issue.

FYI - A buddy bought one of these, cut in down to fit the rear of his jeep, and had to get rid of it due to the smell. The rubber smell was overpowering.
