Garage floor paint

[CaptRandy]

Wash with acid before you apply a paint onto surface. That etches the surface so the paint will adhere. Before you use acid find a power washer in your area that can clean the surface. Be sure they can capture the waste water from cleaning. You cannot remove all the oil but there are oilzorb products that will help.

Peeling in certain spots is what originally happened before the coat began to just come up even with the shop vac.

I just taped a piece of plastic on the floor and I will give it a look in the morning and check the progress. Just checked out the muratic acid and the clean-n-etch sealer.

I Just read that if the floor still holds moisture after the etching that the paint will never adhere.


I should have thought about redoing it in the summer
