RE: [old-chevy-truck] Garage Floor Finish
Yes I've heard that it is about 30 days cure time. The garage site is great.

No tire pick up, no damage from dropping tools or chipping. We get snow around here every now and then so we tend to track some of the sand they use for intersections in and as long as I wash it off it holds. The only thing is that it has lost some of the sheen due to the cleaner I use; Oil Eaters. It cost me about $300 to cover a 3 car garage plus prep expenses. In my opinion the secret to a lasting coating is on the prep work, which requires a good degreaser, acid to etch the concrete after a good clean up and lots of elbow grease, be prepared to lose a few pound doing the prep work. Stay away from the crap stuff they sell at Home Depot, just find your local Sherwin Williams store and get it there. I think the product that I got is called tile clad or something like that. Enjoy and remember the secret is on the prep work. Antonio [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!
