Garage floor paint ??

Does anybody have any recommendations for this as been looking at a few from B and Q, toolmart etc and just after peoples ideas as would like a nice hard wearing paint that wont rub off as soon as i drive the mk 1 in the garage and is fairly resistant to oil and petrol oh yeah and cheap too, so not a big ask really  :lol:

Will seal the concrete floor with pva prior to painting it as well.


Thanks all !!!

I have a mate who is a specialist in this area, He does floors for Rolls Royce etc.
I am not sure how expensive they are but I could enquire for you.
The problem as I understand is the preperation has to be spot on, no loose or flaky, damp concrete.
If you like I can pm you his number, so you can be sure you get the best possible advice and if he can supply you.
He is by Proffesion an Industrial Chemist, so he could even formulate you something.

We have just had two work shops done at work the first one was a shiny surface and if u have wet shoes on u steep on it it's like dancing on ice. And the the second one was a dull surface which has a lot more grip and u can still mop it or use a floor cleaner :)

Hi,

I dont know if this helps… But i have a new build house and the concrete was brand new dust everywhere! So i used builders PVA get water resistant stuff about 12.99 for 5l start 50/50 then go up to almost neat its perfect finish and id resistant! Well i had the non ressintant and now i have the resisntant and its fine! Up to you mate, cheap or expensive i would prefer to spend £50 on my car than the floor  :lol:
