Hello everyone,
My name is Kevin and I built a replica 1966 Ford 427 Shelby Cobra some years ago. I have been a member here for a while and I bought the "MaxJax" 2-post garage lift for my single stall garage here on the site. It's coming time to finish my garage. (finally) ! I bought some used kitchen cabinets and the walls will be painted. The next step is flooring. I've seen several epoxy painted from friends, family member, and business's and I'm not impressed and I will not waste my time and money. There is so much cleaning and prep work to establish before painting, it not for me, and I'm a auto body man knowing what it takes for a good foundation to have a good paint job and long lasting. We could talk for many hours, debating paint vs tile but, that's not what this post is about so please, let's stick to the tile application
product.
I just wanted to mention how excited I am, about the "SwissTrax" tile flooring system since I don't like the idea of epoxy paint for my floor. To me, it's a no brainier.
As a note, I'm not a employee of the company, I just like finding and sharing great deals for great products,for us gear heads.
I'm very happy to extend my "Group Buy" for all of you, on buying in bulk.
This means lower cost for all of us. It will be a lot faster and easier for me and my sales person with Swiss trax, if everyone that wants to be included,would go to a site I've been a member of for several years, to purchase your flooring. It's called club cobra and I have put the link for them and SwissTrax, at the bottom of this page.
Ok, here's the exciting part.
I had a great conversation with SwissTrax and we discussed the matter of how a "Group Buy" could be good for us as well as them. We agreed on a price and they are willing to give us 30% off retail !
$4.95/SF any tile any color, recycled poly propylene product line $3.95/SF; your price $3.49/SF any tile any color and $2.79/SF recycled…edges retail $3/each for 15 ¾” tile and $2/each 13” tile; your price $2/each 15 ¾” and $each 13” edge.
My sales woman (great gal) says the recycled tiles are from the end of a batch and the color may not be exactly the same. Just like buying wall paper from a different batch or as I know being a auto body man, paint is the same way. If a slight color difference would not matter to you, you'll even get a better price. There is nothing wrong with the tile, other than this little color variance.
You can even order custom logo's. They are cut and laid in the tile. They have a COBRA logo I will definitely order one. The price is cheap but, I don't recall what is is but will find out Monday. I also asked if lettering, like your name, business, car type or brand, ect... is something we can do and she will check into it. I replied that if we could come up with one "font", that would be cheaper for all of us and the company. I will be very happy if I could get,
"427 SHELBY COBRA". WOO-HOO !
Here's some facts-
12 year limited warranty
Constructed of UV stabilized polypropylene copolymer
Resistance to:
Alkalis - Excellent
Oil, Gas & other Auto Fluids - Excellent
Acids / Solvents - Good
Tile Weight: 17.5 ounces
Non-slip surface
Temperature Tolerances: -22F + 248F
#
Compressive Strength: 5120 p.s.i.
#
Not affected by moisture or chemicals
#
Not affected by existing or future concrete cracking
#
Provides excellent slip resistance when wet
SwissTrax come many colors and you can even have custom colors made for you as well. (there are some restrictions in the recycled tiles)
They're easy to install, relatively easy to clean and look fantastic. And, with a compression strength of 5,120 p.s.i., they won't be damaged by floor jacks, jack stands or dropped tools.
If it's endorsed by such names as Shelby and Hendrick Motorsports, it's good enough for me.
This is how it will work-
Carefully read the vast of information on the site.
Have fun with the "Floor Designer" and pick out your favorite colors and final design.
Get a hold of me via private message and I will give you my sales woman direct number for you to order your SwissTrax.
It's that simple. Please ask any questions you want, if I don't have the answer, she will contact you.

PM me for my phone number.
The only thing I ask is, please keep this post about SwissTrax and not a debate about paint or other tile company's. That issue has been addressed many times here and on other sites. Please do a search here or on the internet for other products.
Thank you very much, and lets get started.
