Acid stained floors vs epoxy vs plastic tiles

[funnicola]

I have looked at all options epoxy /plastic foor tiles(ie race deck) and polished floors. I have also looked at a few acid stained floors with sealer applied over. The cost is way less and I like the look. Any one with any experience with these? How it holds up? Thanks for any info and pictures would be nice? Garages are 3300 square feet- 10 cars. plan on a 4 post lift and light mechanical work

An acid stained floor if coated appropriately for a garage environment holds up as well as a flake system. Key being maintenance.

There are 3 forms of concrete stain; acid stain, water based stain and acetone based stain. Regardless of which is used, the garage floor would be best prepped via diamond grinding first.

We like to do a 4 stage grind to semi polish or hone the concrete, then apply our stain. Again, because it's a garage floor, an epoxy and polyurethane sealer system would be best.

I'll take the 'Vet you keep the floor. Just joking, the floor look great but that 'Vet. Now that's what I'm talkin' bout.
