What do people recommend for Garage Floor finishes?

[rms427]

To protect my racedeck floor I just welded 1 inch steel squares to the bottom of each leg on the stands and then used self stick felt furniture floor protectors. Probably didn't need the felt but it was easy to put on. I haven't had a problem with using a rolling floor jack or tool cabinet.

I used self stick linoleum squares under the 4 post lift and ramps for the lift (sticky side up). On the ramps I first welded on 1 inch steel strips to the sharp edges on the ramps. Then cut the linoleum squares to one inch wide strips and glued them to the steel strips. Seems to work fine. Self stick carpet squares would probably even work better but I couldn't find any at the time and so I used the linoleum. Basically from what I have seen you just need to protect the floor from sharp heavy objects.

My original floor coating had failed and this sure cured the problem. All I did was scrape off what I could of the old material and then laid the racedeck on top of it. I cut the tiles around cabinets and even through a doorway into a bathroom and around the toilet. Just used a jig saw to cut around objects. Straight cuts are better done with a table saw.

Have fun, Ray
