I have acquired 48 aerosol cans of red stripeing paint.
What else it can be used for?
Thought of using it on Garage floor since it was designed to be used in parking lots, but not sure if I’m wasting my time.
I know prep is the key, but not sure if the paint is durable enough to spend a lengthy preparation process.
I put an “epoxy” floor paint on it from HD about 12 years ago and it did pretty well, but since then I have spayed other things over the years including recently latex paint to paint multiple new interior doors.
Now floor is multi colored and the latex does not sweep up as nice.
This is a working garage with welding and floor jacks being drug all over.

I figured if there was anyone with experience with aerosol stripe paint it would be here on GJ
Thanks

striping paint is not quality paint as far as quality goes.
are you sure it's striping paint, or is it marking paint? marking paint is even less quality,
sell it off and put that money towards the proper paint

If it is marking paint, it isn't designed to last forever and would not be good for floor paint. Problem with using it like regular spray paint is that it is designed to spray upside down and the tip won't have a good spray pattern.

I'd donate it to a habitat for Humanity ReStore.

Striping paint is a sacrificial coating designed to wear exposing pigment, not a garage coating. Hey it’s your garage, might be fun and great, or a lot of work to get it off.
