    Default Garage Floor Coatings?

    I am looking to coat my garage floor. I spoke with UCoat It at the PRI show this year and they seem to have a pretty nice kit and have a lifetime warrenty against chipping and cracking.

    I was just wondering how many people have their floors coated and what brand/product they went with? Did you have any issues with it over the years? How easy was it to install and overall satisfaction with the product.

    I used U-coat it... kind of a PITA to put down, but has a pretty clean look... brake fluid will tear it up, and also the arms on the lift have scratched the floor pretty bad... but for residential and for the $$$ its not too bad
    Current
    No Car... bummer dude

    U coat is WAY over priced! I do garages locally here in SLC... Look in your local yellow pages under coatings find a distributor where you can buy the product and do it yourself. If you have any Q's on app. feel free to PM me.

    Almost bullet proof, it takes a year of traffic in a 40 million dollar a year retail store for it to become dull. Should last ages in a residential environment.

    i have professionally applied epoxy on mine with 100% chip coverage and it's unreal. Pricey ($2600 for a 2 car garage) but i think worth it.

    My dad recently did the Behr system available at Home Depot and I was VERY impressed. For a large 2-car spent about $600 in product and took him and I about 4 hours to get it down. They sell chips in shaker bottles so getting 100% coverage is not feasible, but it looks very good. They have a top coat also for it.

    What do you use to seal cracks in the floor? I have some 1/8" cracks.

    Why fill the crack when you can just cover it?
