Help with Flooring solutions

[AudiS4]

Hello All! I bought a new house around a year ago, and finally have unpacked most of our stuff. My goal this spring is to do a epoxy floor. I was looking into doing a full broadcast polyurea floor. I am open to other types if better suited. the floor most likely wont be abused occasionally will need to jack up a vehicle.

Garage is a 23X21 (2) bay garage. the concrete in place seems to be in ok shape however there are a few areas that are pitted, my other concern is the concrete block around the perimeter. should i epoxy that too? I was planning on renting a sander from a big box store. What is everyone's thoughts, what would you would do in my situation?

Clean out the pitted areas well and then trowel them over with a slurry of 100% solids epoxy and fine sand. Your pitting doesn't look too bad, so I would reduce the amount of sand used by 15-20%. Some of the vendors here have these type of repair kits. Once it cures, you can grind it flush with the rest of the floor.

You can coat the stem wall, but they will take a lot of product since they are typically more porous than the slab. What many do is smear a half dollar size of the coating onto a piece of cardboard or wood and take it in to your local home improvement store to color match some concrete paint. It's much cheaper than the coating. Plus, you won't be driving on it (hopefully) so no need to worry about wear.

Not a lot of help it seems? I thought there would be people jumping for business.

Hello, thank you for responding and offering to assist. as i mentioned in my thread my garage is 21X23 looking for assistance, do you offer anything to put in the pitted areas of the concrete?

i checked out the AG site and looked at the chip floor system. Do you happen to have any gallery pictures of the Dakota or Gravel flake?
