I've been reading these pages for a few years now, not posting too much but enjoying a lot of the posts here. I bought a small house a couple years ago and decided to take the knowledge I found here to 'upgrade' the floor of my small (19'X12') attached garage. The floor was previously painted with the 'good' and now unavailable paint of years ago. I needed the garage floor done before moving in tools and toys otherwise it may not of happened (something I learned here).
This is what I started with:
1st pic is the one piece door and a bad paint job
2nd pic is what the garage floor looked like when I found it
3rd pic is the old paint that was a PITA to remove, yes the buffer with stones did NOT work.
4th looked like a good corner for a compressor maybe?
Last pic is all the dust during the grinding of the floor getting all the paint off
Not sure how to attach the pics in the thread, sorry about the thumbnails. I will post the end results momentarily.
This was just a test to see how the floor holds up to daily abuse and to see how the manufacturers recommended coverage would look like and what size of cracks it would cover without being fixed
