Garage Floor paint?
Hey guys, new garage build has got to the point where I'm looking at painting the floor, and was wondering what the best paint to use to go over
the top of screeding is?
Was looking at internation garage floor paint but it's quite expensive, and I keep hearing stories about how it keeps lifting.
Cheers,
Badger

Wickes own brand sealer and paint. Been down nearly 7 years now and still lokking good. Reasonbly priced as well

I used the floor paint from Screwfix, still good after 5 years.

+1
but use a PVA wash first to seal things down.
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I used the No Nonsense version. 1st coat was diluted (with white spirit I think), 2nd coat neat. Applied with a deep pile roller it went down pretty
fast.
I also painted the walls white with cheap satin emulsion which made quite a difference to the amount of reflected light.
