Painted my garage floor

[Cornish Rattler]

Hi guys
Yesterday me and son decided to strip the garage out and paint the floor as its been 6-8 years ago since it was last done, anyway here's some pic's obviously stuff needs putting back in place and some stuff needs going through as to what's staying and what's not

I use that on my house floors.

But then I'm a bachelor and we are allowed to.

Ronseal?

Did you use the sealing agent first....

Did that on our garage floor, only to find it make it slippery as fudge in socks, nearly broke my neck!

Coo-var here. As recommended to me by the local industrial paint supplier. Dries really quickly and can be put on thick, no sealer.

Are they rope hooks on the side, are they the right way up

Think once i've sorted everything out i will look getting some racking to get stuff off the floor, i was thinking of putting more shelving up but have decided on racking instead

Looks fantastic that! I need to paint mine, it’s a smooth concrete floor I was planning to tile, but painting might be worth trying and considerably cheaper?

 

[ColinV6]

What paint did you use out of interest?
