The floor coating has held up extremely well. I would definitely use it again if the chance arises.

Since you've had the floor coating down for a few years now and have some experience with it, how is it to live with? More specifically, how easily can toolboxes, welding carts, and the like be moved around with the textured surface? How easy is it to keep clean? Does the textured surface make it more difficult to clean up fluid spills or sweep up dust/debris?

Looking to cover my garage floor, and the concrete is less than perfect - differences in texture, small chips in places, and the texture of the Granite Grip would cover a lot of those imperfections. Just unsure of how it would be to live with day to day.

Tool boxes and carts roll around very easy. There is some grip but not as much as a broom finish on concrete. So it can be swept. I usually use a medium stiffness broom and have no problems. Saw dust tends to be a little harder to sweep out. Oil wipes right up.

If you look at my second pic with my kids power wheels you can see that the tables steel wheel left a white streak. That table is pretty heavy I will clean up where the streak is and snap a pic so you can see how it held up.

I'm at work until next week but I will try to mop it to get some of the winter crud stains off and take some better pics.

Had some time to clean up today. Here are some pics of the floor coating for those that had interest.

So the first pic is before being cleaned. Second pic with lift is after cleaning ( sorry, to lazy to move lift again but you can see the difference)

3 is up close pic of some recent damage before cleaning. My kid was playing with my lift and had left the raising lever on the lift. So it snagged my front valance when I came home as I wasn't paying attention when I pulled in. I ended up dragging it a few inches back and forth on the stabilizer pucks when I went in then backed out.

4th pic is same area after cleaning.

5 the pic is the damaged area up close

Coating looks pretty stout, seems that only the top layer of abrasive was scraped off and the underlying coating is still intact. Went and looked in the store yesterday, and at least on the color sample chart, the texture wasn't nearly as rough as I expected. Like I was expecting 40 or 80 grit, and it was closer to 180 grit sandpaper.
