[Tigers] flooring

[spook01@comcast.net]

I used the rustoleum two part epoxy for my floor. The main thing about a painted floor is prep. Otherwise, the paint will pop loose no matter the brand.
Be sure to completely clean and seal the floor before etching and painting. 
Then enjoy.

I wouldn't say that porcelain is either clever or inexpensive, Steve, but it *is* very different from standard ceramic.  It's main difference is in being *very* resistant to impact damage.  Still, I wouldn't use it in a heavily working garage.  But the question that started this thread was whether to use to interlocking rubber-like floor tiles, which I wouldn't use in any kind of working garage, either.  Or probably even in a show garage, which is what it is intended for.  Porcelain is a good (I think) compromise between the two.  My garage will be house a bunch of cars that just need maintenance, not restoration, and there's a big difference there in the garage environment......
