just had a garage built over the last couple of months, and decided to do the garage floor epoxy from Rustoleum. Had it tinted a blue color and it turned out amazing!!

the prep is the key thing, and i spent about 5-6 hours on it, so as to make sure it was done right!! we did the floor this past friday, and had a friend who is a union painter do the epoxy for me(somehow i would have screwed it up!).

I did the clear coat over the top on sunday, and i highly recommend it, along with the anti skid additive.

Did you use the rustoleum solvent based or water based epoxy? Also, is that with one coat of color and one coat of clear? Some people have roller marks show through with just one coat of color but your's came out really nice!

Great floor, I'm sure you'll enjoy it for years to come

Do you mix the anti-skid additive into the clear or do you sprinkle on the top like you do with the flakes on the color coat?

I used the water based color epoxy, but the clear is solvent based. 1 coat of color, as i stated, i had a professional painter come in and do it and i am thrilled with the results!! no roller marks at all....

I did add the ant skid to the mixture, and it was rolled on, not sprinkled
