Looks amazing!! I love seeing floors in garages look so good. Always wondered how they would stand up to a gravel driveway outside and miserable winters.... guess thats why I haven't made the leap myself.
But it completely transforms the garage after, the floor becomes the center of attention.

Man, i live in Kansas, so we have our fair share of weather, salt, and I like in a rural-ish area, so I'm tracking gravel and sand in.

I'm expecting it to be tough and hold up really good.
We'll see.

One thing I need ti further work on is the acoustics of the garage. It's so loud and echoey.
I put those silver and blue foam things on the walls but it's still just noisy

I was kidding about the scooter wheels, but glad to hear it held up to the other stuff. I gave up on my garage floor, I've resigned myself to having it repoured and professionally coated...of course that will never happen.

You should see what can be done.
They also make those swisstrax or racedeck tile things.
Might eliminate the need for a repour

Don't know how I missed this, but great work! The floor looks amazing.

Question: How did you evenly distribute the flake? That would give me anxiety

Congrats! Looks great!

Any idea how you would prevent the bugs if you knew in advance?

That was the part I was the most nervous about.

I took some test throws to figure out technique.

Then had my wife be spotter for me and try to get it even.

There is definitely a couple spots, around the border, where it's a bit heavier.

Again, unless you really look for it, it's a visual defect that doesn't really stand out.

I did a pretty light broadcast though, so probably easier with more coverage.

Not do it at night with a light on!

I did the other 2 layers during day and didn't notice any bug infiltration
