quote: +1 TreadSafe is the only stuff that stays on. http://www.anglobuild.co.uk/download/Treadsafe.pdf you need a new floor.. thats not been power floated. for best results. we did it on a three car garage, not the easiest to put down with the granules, but is non slip. the guys Bentley caught fire and damaged the whole garage.. and part of the house. The floor didn't even bubble up. I go go normal oil base floor paint... Dulux's Gliddens own brand is fine. just make sure the floor is dry and clean. If you park your car in the same stop all the time it will lift the floor paint, as the floor paint has a reaction with the tyres that pulls it up. Either put a square carpet time down where your wheels are.. or keep touching it up. | |

I want to go the floor in my brick shed as it's not easy wiping oil etc off concrete and it's dusty. I would nick some from work but they have dark red and I'd want grey tbh. | |

I bought mine from a Dulux decorator center. It was their own brand stuff, but it wasn't made by Dulux - that makes no sense but the guy said it was the stuff they used in their warehouses and it came out really nicely. | |

International do good garage floor paints but a 2 part epoxy is they way forward. Just had one of our warehouses painted with this stuff, think they used dulex | |

Just had a look at where we got ours from, it was made by Rustoleum and was £23 for 5ltrs. They do a 2 part epoxy version too but that was too much fucking about. | |

Stay away from the anti slip stuff that has a grain in it. It's a twat to sweep the floors afterwards. Floor paint is floor paint though so your only real consideration is colour. We just did our workshop in red and it looks good although I prefer grey. | |
