Just bought a new house and I will have a 24x32 workshop garage :willy_nil In addition to a garage to park the daily drivers. I plan on using this garage, tearing down cars, rebuilding cars, and maintaining a weekend racer. I had garage deck in my last garage and it held up pretty well, but I am looking at less expensive options. A buddy of mine has had very good results with the Rust-Oleum professional epoxy coating, but it has been discontinued.

I searched around a bit and found Rust-Oleum RockSolid, made from polycuramine. It is supposed to be 20x stronger than epoxy. Does anyone here have any experience with this product or this material? Any opinions?

We did a post on RockSolid's polycuramine which you can find here. It gives a better explanation of what it is and what to expect. It's not 20x stronger than epoxy. It's a bad marketing tactic they use, comparing their product to 1-part epoxy paint. It's fairly easy to apply, but floor prep is still the most important part of the job. I would rate the product as OK for the standard garage that sees light duty projects.

For what you plan on using your garage for you would be better off spending a few more dollars for a better quality multi-coat system.

Exactly what the gentleman above said ^^^

Anyone know if they kept the original formula after they branded it With the big national brand?

Thanks for the quick responses. Shea are there any multi coat products out there that you would recommend over another? There are so many choices and I am not afraid of doing the prep, just afraid of doing the prep only to be disappointed.
