Default Garage flooring
Thinking about installing tile in my garage. Looking at Costco motofloor. Anyone using that? What other options are there? I have a three car garage so looking at 600 sq ft at least. Looks like $2000+ to do the job...

When I moved in my new house I did the Home Depot gray epoxy floor kit with the colored paint chips, it has lasted 10 years and looks great

concrete floor is easy to sweep, easy to wipe up spills.

epoxy coating will get you the Cadillac of garage floors

tiling/matting...may shift running vehicles over it, it may sag or collapse under the weight, anything you run over might be pressed into the flooring.

Used the Diamond gridloc tiles from Rubber Flooring Inc. Quick to ship and easy installation. At $2.29 per tile and free shipping, can't beat it.

I did the tan epoxy coat from Home Depot, I think it was Rustoleum, and you have to follow the instructions perfectly. Time is critical...too soon and it doesn't cure right, too slow and it clumps up. I did a 3-car garage and after 10 years one of the three stalls held up about 98%, another about 85%, and the last one about 60%. That last one also held the toys so got the most hard use, stands, trailers, jacks, etc...

I think if you prep right and pay real close attention to the pot time you can get a good floor at a good price. Not professional quality, of course, but fine for home use.
