I am building a shop with a concrete floor.
I think that smooth concrete would be best for the floor due to easy

I also think a rough finish would be better to keep from slipping.
Maybe a trade-off.
What is the consensus?

Thanks in advance


Absolutely, make it as smooth troweled as possible. A grain of sand
will cause a heavily laden metal wheeled dolly to stop or hesitate, so a
rough floor definitely will. Also, you'll never seem to get a rough
floor really clean. Slipping has never been an issue with me.
