Rustoleum rocksolid floors

[Grant Gunderson]

Does anyone have some photos they could post of the rustoleum rock solid floors the have done?

We just bought a new house and I am thinking about doing the floor before we move in, its roughly 550 square feet (2 car with an extra deep bay on one side). House is about 10 years old and the concrete is in great shape, no cracking.

Curious on how these floors have been holding up. Also does anyone have any images of the clear top coat, vs. the textured top coat? Thinking of going with the textured as I am worried about how slick it would be with our wet PNW winters.

I am thinking of going with a light grey and no flecks, as I want to be able to easily find dropped washers and other small parts. Is this a mistake? I was thinking non-metalic as I want a consistent even look. Don't the metallic options leave you with a swirl or wave pattern?

The garage is mostly used for working on mountain bikes, waxing skis, and the occasional vehicle maintenance.

I know there are venders on here that rep there own expo and poly coatings, but I really like the idea of being about to get all of my supplies locally, especially if I need to do touch ups latter. Not apposed to ordering from a GJ vendor, but seems like a lot of there products are overkill for my needs.

I just did mine. I think it is very good. I have not had it long but I can tell you that I moved various tool boxes, a compressor and an auto lift and the floor held up. Everything was moved in 24 hours after I finished. I had about an inch worth of material left on the paint in a bucket and it dried solid as a rock! The product is impressive.

I would definitely put in some additive for traction. The floor is VERY glossy when put in and without something for traction, it's ice.

One thing on the painting/application. As you go keep stirring/mixing the paint. This is to keep the color uniform. If not, you run the risk of a difference in the sections.

Here are the photos of mine.
