I have a 50x50 garage. It will be automotive work. Mainly I want easy oil clean up.... rust bullet will cost me $2400... ghostsheild would run me about $1200... looking for easy application and something that won't soak up oil, antifeeeze, etc, JFK or jacks used, drain pain on wheels etc...

Ghostshield will be much easier to install and will keep your floor from getting stained.

Rust Bullet is still user friendly and a coating does generally make it easier to squeegee out the floor.

If it is power troweled, I personally would lean towards Ghostshield

I used Ghostshield 8505 plus the densifier. I have been impressed with its ability to resist staining. More than sufficient time for proper clean up.

Unless one has knowledge of their exact slab construction, how would one know if it was power troweled? In my 25+ years of residential construction here in northern VA, it's been at least 20 years since I've seen a machine for this on the job. Slabs are hand troweled and quite smooth.

Mine is power trowled

If you have nice smooth concrete than the densifier and Ghostshield works great because the floor is already smooth enough to help with cleaning. To coat it you are going to have to profile it.
