I did a bit of research and read through the various threads here about floor coatings but I don't recall anyone mentioning POR-15's product : http://www.stoprust.net/Floor-Coatings-p-1-c-30.html -

I ran into it on a thread on corvetteforum.com (amazingly enough, they were talking about actually WORKING on their cars int he garage and not discussing which floor would resist staining from an accidental spill of their favourite car wax (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ). It looks like its only been out a few months but so far it seems ot be getting some pretty good reviews so far.

Its a tad more expensive than 2 part expoxy. I've got about 800sq ft to cover. According to ucoatit.com its just shy of $700 for their 2 part expoy with a clearcoat top and I'd need 2 of the 400sqft kits from of the POR-15 stuff which is $1010

I used the Lowes kits (Rustolum I think) in my garage when we built it. Prep was sweep, wash, the paint. It has held up well to two years of fabbing and general garage work. Part of my reasoning to use the Lowes kits was being able to get it cheap and easy to touch up damaged spots. So far the expoy has stuck well. As mentioned above, dispite being careful there are chips in my from dropped items. I think it cost somewhere around 500 to do a 6 car garage.

Best money I spent. This kit or one of the others, an epoxy floor rocks. Careful if not adding the flakes, this stuff can be super slipery when it gets wet.
