GARAGE FLOORING

So I thought it would be cool to see what everyone's doing in the garage with the GT.

I realize this is a very common topic in a lot of forums, but was interested in all of your thoughts. I have a very boring beige epoxy currently, and was interested in some sort of interlocking squares in grey tones with a border. Also, was concerned that the "plastics" used feel too plastic (like RaceDeck), so was trying for a softer rubber.

Let's see your floors for ideas.

Here is mine on Racedeck. The floor doesn't have a plastic feel to me. I would worry about the durability of softer compounds. I like the fact that the floor is sitting on top of the concrete. If you move or don't like the floor anymore, it just comes right up. In fact, 2/3 of this floor shown was in my old house's garage. I just ordered the 1/3 I needed for the bigger garage and installed it in the new garage. It is great when the vehicles come in wet. The water drains underneath the floor so the flooring is not slippery.

Flooring looks great. Looks like you will need to paint walls and trim in grey tones to get away from beige like I will.

Based on this, I think I'll get a sample from RaceDeck. I might just go with 12" size.

Racedeck here too. Single color only. Love the practicality. If the weather is bad, I wash the cars inside...

Floor feels solid even though there is a slope to the center drain. We have a lot of salt in the winter so these type of floors work best

Your car looks perfect on the Graphite FreeFlow flooring! I have the same in my own personal garage and love that I can wash my car in the garage all winter long here in Utah. Also, nice when all that winter road slop melts through the floor into the drains and not have that mess in the morning.
Is your car a wrap or factory? looks great

I did the epoxy coating in grey with white and blue specks. The I also used a sealer on top. So far after seven years it has held up great!.
