loaded jack was a pain to move on the bare concrete. i never felt comfortable dragging the jack around regardless. but i put the bike up on the jack and pushed it up against the wall and didnt notice any difference.

i heard it will indent the tiles, i dont know yet though, cause i havent went out and looked at it since i got the floor done. but if it does they will replace the tiles for free, so it doesnt really bother me.

No surprise seeing that...you're in Buffalo! Of course down the road in Roch-cha-cha, we've been very fortunate so far and have had nothing but a dusting!
Beautiful garage/man cave by the way Hoblick!

considered the black and orange tiles, also considered the colors i choose in a checkerboard pattern. i just thought it would be to busy looking.

so i just did a graphite border with alloy in the center. i really like how it turned out, glad i went with that layout

Great looking floor and nice garage. I have a 3.5 car garage. I painted the floor with epoxy. It starting to peel in places after a few years due to road salt dripping from the cars. Does the matt flooring make it difficult to roll your bike around in the garage?
