Wow. Very nice color combo. Just joined to see what folks are doing to cover their garage flooring. Still considering the SwissTraxx vs RaceDeck vs Gladiator. Going to do lots of reading on the boards here ...

Welcome Zydeco Cee. you will find everything you wanted for your garage here on this forum,,, Have fun
I did the same thing. I ended up with Racedeck. Good luck on your choice. You can not go wrong with any of those 3 choices.

I am considering beige Freeflow tiles in my design as my garage walls are already painted tan and my floor has a beige epoxy already applied that is a very close match to the beige Racedeck tile color. My plan is to cover 3/4 of the floor with tiles leaving the exposed tan epoxy in the back of the garage under the area I perform most of my power tool work. The epoxy is builder-grade residential epoxy that was applied when we purchased the home new in 2005. It has stood up pretty well, however it lifted under the wet/hot Florida rain tires. I laid down some rubber parking pads that helped, however they are starting to show their age plus they look ugly with the burned in tire marks. The home was a builder's model so I didn't get to design it, just buy it.
I'm thinking a mixture of black, beige and graphite, similar to this design from another forum, however I plan to mix the colors differently utilizing a black border, beige interior border, and then graphite tiles for underneath the vehicles. All Freeflow.

That pic above is nice.
Sorry to bring back an old thread. But I thought I would report back a review of my Racedeck, after some months. In short, it's one of the best things I did for the house. It's easy to clean. Just use a pressure washer and simple green. I have gotten compliments from neighbors. It looks nice and makes me feel like it's my home every time I pull into my drive way. Barefoot walking on it feels good to my feet. And, it is very easy to replace a single tile if you have to.
Here are the downsides. This is a small one, when it gets hot, like now, the edges at end of garage that is exposed to the sun slightly buckles, but it is very minor. It goes back to normal when temp drops or when you close the garage door. Also, you can not use a jack stand on the Racedeck. But, I have race ramps. When I do need to use a jack stand, I put a sheet of plywood under the jack when I jack up the car and under the jack stands. I plan on getting some of the metal Racedeck tiles for those areas that I now know are spots for my jack stands when I work on the car in the future.
Overall, I would do it again....but get the metal tiles in those areas where my jack stands go for my car. It is a great product!!!
I also wish racedeck had integrated lights or something like that so I could have in floor lighting.

They kind of do have lights, Jorgen from Racedeck has mentioned them several times but has been kind of vague in their real use and I have yet to see good pictures of them, but they do have them.
