Beautiful work! That paint looks amazing now.
A year from now, you'll wish you started today.

Re: 2011 Challenger SRT8 Inaugural Edition, 2-step correction and wheels off coating
Hey Rasky, garage is looking great, I love the white floor! If I ever get to doing mine, I was going to do a very light gray, but I think you have sold me on the white. I think we may have discussed this before (you did it), but it's very glossy--do you have some traction modifier in there? Does that have any effect on sweeping/mopping? What type of paint/finish did you wind up going with?

Outstanding Chad! I'm surprised he didn't want you to do the coating, I'm sure it's going to get dirty driving it home before he coats it.

Thanks Buddy. It is actually a very light grey floor and I do love it but it shows EVERYTHING! LOL
We discussed the pros and cons of adding the anti-skid additive and in the end we chose not to add anything. It's fine when it's dry but does get a little slick when wet. We knew this though and it was a big part of why we had the industrial mats made up for when clients come. We will have a cheaper set for everyday use. Water seems to bead up on the floor coating but I suspect this will fade off over time. For now I do a wet mop and follow with a squeegee to clean, which seems to work well. Scuffs seem to clean up easily with some APC.
I ended up going with Sherwin Williams Armorseal line using the 33 Primer, 650 SL/RC Epoxy, and their HS Polyurethane top coat, all in high gloss. They have lots of colors to choose from that it can be tinted to. The top coat was optional but it adds the UV protection and I wanted to coat the 6" or so that extends outside of the door too. I did have a couple areas that ended up wrinkling a little over a week later. Not sure if it was moisture in the floor, high heat/humidity the days we did it, or if the primer was applied too thick, but overall we are very happy and it ended up costing us about $2sq ft. I should be able to just redo those ares next spring since the saw cuts break it up nicely into sections.

He actually has a Rupes and lots of products and I believe he gets on these forums a lot too. He should be more than capable of doing the coating.

He may be back if he is not knowledgable on how to apply and remove ceramic.
