Great feedback, guys. I'd heard about lifting and wear problems, so it's good to hear from those that have experienced it. My garage is probably 34 years old, and it has a lot of stains from
oil and, well, who knows what. There are cracks that would need filling and I assume the thick
oil stains would need to be ground off.
That being said, my counter tops are grey and tool cabinets red, with black trim around the base of the walls. I would stain the concrete black with marbled silver and a touch of red, with the clear satin epoxy.
What I've read about epoxy floors is that they need to be waxed every six months to reduce the wear. Any thoughts on the tire stains being caused by the floor wax?
I optimistically think I'll do it myself, but when reality sets in I'll realize I simply don't have the time and will need to hire out the work. So, thanks for the tips on local contractors.
