    I have to refinish my garage floor and want to put down a sexy black and white pattern to complement the 360. Can anyone advise what materials are most durable? What resists hot tires best and, most important, what stains the least and is easiest to clean. I know Griots Garage offers some but I would rather have it professionally done. Tried it myself last time with epoxy---didn't work. Thanks for any info.

    I'm using Florock for my warehouse. They have lot's of materials to choose from. They're very knowledgable also. Best company I've found and I interviewed a lot.

    I did datile porcelain in black and white checker. Looks great and is holding up very well. They were cheap too.

    I think motofloor might be a race deck brand offshoot. Probably fine to use if you just want black and white (I did black/yellow/red)

    Yep - motofloor is indeed a racedeck offshoot. Same parent company ... and has been VERY good. PS, it comes in many colors too. I just chose black/white.

    They are some great garage shots. They, along with 290+ more pages can be found under the garage pics thread. It's probably one of my favorite threads on the entire forum.

    Racedeck makes a form of tile that has perforations in it so you can hose the junk out of your garage.

    I put Motofloor from COSTCO in my garage about 3 years ago and I would not do again. I am sure that it's ok if all you do is park your car on it, but if you do maintenance the tiles don't hold up. Mine have stains (from gasoline and oil) and have warped under heavier loads (engine outs). If anything spills it goes in the cracks and there is no way to clean up unless you remove all the tiles. I contacted the company a couple of years ago, and they told me that stain and warping was normal wear and tear and warranty did not apply...

    I will do epoxy next time, more stable and easier to clean.
