Garage Floor Tile

Painting your floor takes many steps to achieve correct adhesion, and to do it incorrectly you will make the expensive garage floor paint you just bought ineffective.
Using colored paint chips is a great way to make your floor look great.  The best way to paint your floor is to use many coats just like you would coat your walls in your house.  You want complete coverage.  After your last coat you can spread the colored paint chips on your floor.   Pattern of randomness is the goal. To get a good random pattern the chips need to be thrown in such a matter so it lands spread apart.  Throw your chips up in the air keeping them far enough away to float to the floor.  Throwing them too close will make it blotchy.
Solid paint color for the floor varies from reds, whites, grey, blue, tan and green.  Picking the correct color is definitely a personal choice.  Decorating the garage and choosing a color to match the walls is a relatively new idea.  Usually garage walls are white, so the floors can match easily.
Finishing your floor with a marbled look is attained with some difficulty and usually should be left for a professional.  For those who are creative in nature or have marbled their walls in the home it might be easier to attain.
Whether you like to spend time on your floor and make it look like a tiled showroom finish or you would just like to paint it so it covers just enough to change the look of your garage you have many choices to make your floor finish pleasing to the eye.
