I waited for the floor to age about a month, then etched it using the provided (muriatic acid ?) agent, and applied the epoxy. The only stuff that has removed it in spots is battery acid, and where I accidentally left some brake fluid sitting on the floor, it eventually lifted when I also parked the car on it. Tough stuff and I'd use it again.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus="1"></div><div>Theo</div><div><br></div><hr id="zwchr" data-marker="__DIVIDER__"><div data-marker="__HEADERS__"><b>From: </b>"tigers" <tigers@autox.team.net><br><b>To: </b>"Gary" <maliburevue@yahoo.com>, "tigers" <tigers@autox.team.net><br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, November 7, 2018 6:56:53 AM<br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Tigers] Garage Floor Coating<br></div><br><div data-marker="__QUOTED_TEXT__"><style><!--

I’m quite satisfied; it is rugged and looks nice with the “color chips” that you sprinkle onto the epoxy before it hardens. There is no spot where this coating lifted, but I need to say that I applied it on 6 month old concrete and I carefully scrubbed the concrete with the citrus cleaner that was part of the Rustoleum kit. Cleanliness of the concrete is important.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">I’ll attach one photo I took around 2005 to let you get an idea of what it looks like.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"> </span></p><div><p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Don Antilla </span></i></p><p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Southbury, CT</span></i></p><p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt;">203-264-8301 Home</span></i></p><p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size: 14.0pt;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt;">203-592-8427 Cell</span></i></p></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;" data-mce-style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"> </span></p><div style="border: none; border-top: solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt; padding: 3.0pt 0in 0in 0in;" data-mce-style="border: none; border-top: solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt; padding: 3.0pt 0in 0in 0in;"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;">From: </span></b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;">Tigers <tigers-bounces@autox.team.net> on behalf of Gary via Tigers <tigers@autox.team.net><br><b>Reply-To: </b>Gary <maliburevue@yahoo.com><br><b>Date: </b>Tuesday, November 6, 2018 at 7:29 PM<br><b>To: </b>"tigers@autox.team.net" <tigers@autox.team.net><br><b>Subject: </b>[Tigers] Garage Floor Coating</span></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1541536176933_10008"><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;" data-mce-style="background: white;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: black;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: black;">I am almost finish with my shop and want to epoxy coat the floor.
