    Take a look at the thread titled "Garage Project" under Showroom for some ideas on Black & White...

    The floor is a product from Concrete Solutions...

    Hey Jr.

    While I know you're entertaining non-grey options, here's a picture of my painted garage floor. What I love about this paint is everything (oil, greese, water etc) sits on top of the paint and I simply wipe it up with a paper towel.

    Every spring, I hose - mop - squeegee the floor and it looks amazing.

    Only down side is it can be slippery when it's wet.

    Good luck,

    Frank

    The beauty of a solid light colored floor is that you can "spot" anything that is on your floor (oil, coolant etc) that should only be in your auto.

    its a type of stain.

    how about Ferrari colors! matched the colors exactly and then had vinyl images laid down then clear coated. my F-car is happier when he's resting with his friends.

    I did a broadcast chip called black granite. It is definitely not a gray. A Home Depot subcontractor did it. It has alot of texture so is a good nonslip. I never have any problem seeing fluids on it. I don't turn a wrench so I'm not looking for a nut.

    My space is 43x46 so I wanted something consistent. I couldn't see doing black and white checkers on something that big. My cars are generally understated not edgy. Some classics. My silver 456MGT looks great on it.

    I have recieved compliments from everyone who has seen it. The overall effect is of a black with a flake.

    That black and white that Hackercract posted looks good. Especially with that car.
